This month's Offering Project is inspired by time I spent in California in early July. While staying in Mendocino, on a visit with longtime friends, I visited with encaustic artist Pamela Hahn in her studio. Pamela is the person who originally introduced me to encaustic painting, as well as R & F Paints in Kingston, NY.

While I was there, she was preparing for an upcoming show at Partners Gallery in Fort Bragg, California. Pamela has been so generous in sharing her creative process. I saw finished paintings, works in progress, as well as some past work. I left that day feeling so inspired, thinking about new techniques to try out.

Thank you Pamela!
