Day 1 of Paradise City

It was a bit challenging for me when I had to decide the placement of my new work in my booth at the show. I used to bring only watercolor paintings and I used to fill every inch of display space available to me. This was the first time I had a combination of smaller encaustic paintings to hang along side a watercolor counterpart. I also felt it was important to allow breathing space for the new works but that was a challenge.


I have two more days left at the show and I have never been so overwhelmed with curiosity and questions from patrons. The encaustic paintings have definitely been a highlight and I am hoping the interest continues.

  1. Beautiful layout and nice white looking lighting too (from the photo that is!) I hope the curiousity and success continues!

  3. Robin- I read your post yesterday, but didn't have time to comment. Your set up here is gorgeous! What a lot of beautiful art you've created. I'm glad the show has been such a success. But that's not surprising considering what beautiful work you have hanging.

  4. Nice job with your booth, Robin. Kudos on the well-deserved attention and curiosity. I'm not surprised that your encaustics are being so well received. They rock!
