The Adam Series Studies: I, II, III by Colorado Contemporary Artist, Susan M. Gibbons





Adam Series Studies: I, II, III

Encaustic and Dirt on Cradled Board

8" x 8" x 1.5"

$300 each

These works were the studies for the Adam Series inspired by the creation story in the Book of Genesis.  Each study reflect the colors of the human skin: red, black, yellow, brown, and white (pink/peach).  These works used the red hues along with red dirt.  T 
e use of dirt with the encaustic (beeswax, damar resin crystals, and pigment) and the movement within the pieces reflects the union of God, humans, and the earth.
