Shima Shanti - Beneath As it Were offered by Shima Shanti – Peace Waters on InCollect
"Beneath As It Were" in the "Lay of the Land" collection is an original encaustic painting by San Diego artist Shima Shanti. Layers of purified beeswax mixed with all-natural earth pigments and a fir-tree sap called damar are painted on Russian Baltic birch panel then fused with the flame of a torch. Shima's minimal aesthetic and choice of all-natural earth elements creates patina and texture that is storied, translucent, and luminous. In this simplicity unexpected levels of complexity surface.
