Blue Basket

Harriette  Tsosie

I paint with encaustic (pigmented wax) and acrylic, incorporating ordinary events and objects into my paintings as symbols for the extra-ordinary. A tape measure may represent life’s brevity: dice, its uncertainty. The baskets are mandalas, suggesting unity or wholeness. Bones, of course, are death. Petroglyphs represent the past, artist ancestors who have gone before us, and keep us connected. I always work in layers, whether with acrylic paint or encaustic. The layers not only give a physical depth to the work, but also a psychological one. I am represented by Art and Stones Gallery, Las Vegas and Studio W, Ruidoso. I teach the encaustic process and my work is included in juried exhibitions, private collections, arts and crafts fairs, and annually in the High Road Artisans open studio tour.
