Lawrence Pevec: Characters

Description: Characters is an assemblage / collage of some of the hundreds of face doodles I’ve done over the years usually while attending tedious meetings.

Bio: I’ve been an artist and designer my entire life. I worked professionally in graphics, exhibit, and film / TV design for over fifty years. I recently retired from design / build projects and am now focusing my creative time on fine art and video. In recent years I’ve been exploring encaustic medium. Encaustic (burn in) is painting with pigmented wax manipulated by heat. It is fast and satisfying as so many variations are possible. Many, but not all, of my pieces are mixed-media and incorporate photography, found objects like seeds, collage materials, and other dry media. I’ve been searching for that unique combination of form and content that will define me as it defines my art. It is a joyous journey. All the pieces I’ve submitted to the auction are exploratory and made between 2021 and 2023.
