Onenes, by Cari Hernandez, a juror for the Luminous Layers show

Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts in Lake Oswego, Oregon is hosting Luminous Layers, a juried exhibit of encaustic work. Artists can submit 2-D or 3-D artwork, and all entries must be received by February 10, 2010. Click here for the prospectus and to submit.

While perusing Lorraine Glessner’s blog, I came across the artist Leslie Wayne and was blown away by her textures.

She does this all with oil on wood. How impressive! Check out a detail shot:

I think she’d be a fantastic addition to the encaustic camp, don’t you? See more here.
