Stephanie Gerolimatos

encaustic, graphite, dry pigment on mat board-faced panel 3.5 x 5 inches

Stephanie Gerolimatos makes wonderful paintings rich with color and texture. She creates surfaces that just seem alive. They have a distinct acknowledgment of their objectness; the surfaces are often cut into or scraped, some have nails pounded into them or objects embedded in the paint. Her website has lots of work on it, and is easy to navigate, with clickable thumbnails.
