This 15 panel work is composed of ~22,500 individually placed hand-cast encaustic crayons and is based on photo that I took in the gardens of the Daejeon Art Museum during my time in South Korea. My use of the crayons-as-pixel give the work a unique 3 dimensional quality which changes the nature of the image as one moves around the space. The final image aesthetic of this technique is reminiscent of embroidery or needlepoints.
