Emily Williams-Wheeler
Moorhead, MN
Williams-Wheeler is a self-taught artist. Through sketching, painting, carving, scraping, building and revealing, intimacy is brought to the surface from broad paint strokes and the delicate, thoughtful line-work. Light translucent veils intermixed with mark-making leave a trail of her thought process as each piece develops. Acrylics are paired with graphite and encaustics (pigmented beeswax/natural resin) create a sculptural element.
