“Fearless Soul”, Original Encaustic Painting by Colorado Artist, Donna L. Martin

Fearless Soul

It was a cold and snowy day...actually a blizzard! They called a "snow day" at my "day job", so what's a girl to do? Jump up and down, sing and dance because there is time to paint! And what a perfect day!

So in all that joy, this little warrior showed up. This little encaustic was done with lots of layers. It has tissue paper, paint, part of an old deed from the early 1900's, plaster, ink, and of course wax. I got to use my Stencil Girl Stencil for her face. She looks very determined, very fearless, thus the title, "Fearless Soul".

This little, bold painting is sold, but commissions are welcome! Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.

I was the one who got picked last for the team, didn't stand up for myself...I didn't know how, didn't have " permission ". I couldn't really find my place, or my voice. I attended Columbine High School for one semester before we moved to a wonderful little small Texas town. When I first got there, the kids in ...

This was a really fun painting to do and has been one of my most popular to date! Mama and baby taking a stroll together on a sunny morning. This original watercolor was completed on a lazy Sunday afternoon after a couple of glasses of wine. Hence, the vibrant colors and textures!
