Mary Alayne Thomas
"My desire to be a painter was fostered early on in my hometown of Sante Fe, New Mexico, where I was raised by two working artists. Initially taken with the luminosity and versatility of watercolor I eventually began to also work with encaustic, gold leaf, india ink, pencil, tn and silkscreen. My work begins as a watercolor, which is then coated with encaustic and other media layered in between. There is a delicacy and softness that emanates from the layering of art forms within the waxy surface. I find constant inspiration from my beautiful surroundings in New Mexico, and with my paintings I continually attempt to capture those magic ephemeral moments we all experience, both real and imagined."
