Exploring Texture and Light
Where beeswax meets the flame
Pamela Taylor is a visual artist, currently living and working in San Antonio, Texas, influenced by her own personal experiences as well as culture, faith and our current social/political climate.
Taylor works primarily in encaustic (molten beeswax, damar resin, pigment), as well as oil and cold wax. She also works with ink, acrylic, watercolor, graphite, and charcoal.
In Taylor’s most current work of encaustic, oil, and gold-leaf portraits, Taylor aims to raise the viewer’s consciousness about the preciousness of life and the Divine Spirit within. Taylor is inspired by the Egyptian Mummy portraits, her March 2018 adventure exploring the ancient, mystical sites in Egypt, a 2016 trip to Russia where she experienced first-hand the religious icons and majestic beauty of the churches throughout Russia.
