Forest Breathing / Lake Breathing
July 25 @ 11:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Encaustic artist Susan Wallis has spent years making work inspired by the natural landscapes that surround her in Prince Edward County. Hours spent walking in the forests near her home and gazing at the surrounding lakes in the Prince Edward County region have been transformed into two brand new bodies of work: Forest Breathing and Lake Breathing.
Both series’ seek to embody the peace and calm that comes from spending time in nature, capturing the feeling of being completely present and mindful within one’s environment.
Susan Wallis is a graduate from the University of Toronto who has been working in the encaustic medium since 2002. Wallis was born in Toronto and lived and worked there for many years before moving with her husband to the countryside of Prince Edward County. It is there where she can be found in her studio (when not weeding her garden or tending her small flock of chickens). Wallis’ work is showcased and collected throughout Canada and is in private and corporate collections in the United States, China, Australia and Europe.
