“As a mixed media artist I love to combine diverse elements—both found and created. As a play on mosaics, each of these rectangles is made of pigmented encaustic wax encasing razor clam shells found on the North Carolina coast and embedding handmade shibori silk.” More of the artist’s work can be seen at http://www.carolretschbogart.com.
