This is one of of my new series, "Inspired by the Palette of the Masters". "A Nod to Vincent's Stars" is a richly textured abstraction of Van Gogh's famous, Starry Night work. Using thick amounts of encaustics, employing a shellac burn, carving and adding pastels to complete the effect, I reveled in the richness of his color choices. Van Gogh would have approved of the various textural elements.
