This is a small, dynamic, encaustic work that for all its size (6x6x1) is highly complex and intricate. Dominated by turquoise and rose, blues, reds, pinks, greens are brought into play in a pattern that is fluid and dramatic. I think of compassion as a dynamic force, thus the title for this piece. Easy to image this on a half-wall, an entryway or bathroom, or as part of a group of paintings. I've used powdered pigment and oil stick along with the encaustic paint, and there are several layers which add depth to this piece as well. It is framed in a simple white frame (wood).
