Encaustic Folkart - Idyllic Series
Encaustic is the very earliest known form of paint, first used by the
Greeks over 2000 years ago. The amazing Fayum Mummy Portraits were
painted in encaustic by the Greeks in Egypt. They are still fresh and
vibrant, and are exhibited today in the world's greatest galleries.
Encaustic painting involves melting, applying, then heat fusing layers
of beeswax (resin and pigment can be added). The wax gives an optical
depth unique to the medium.
Encaustic has returned from obscurity as modern tools have made the
process more practical. Diego Rivera used encaustic in the 1930's on his
murals. Jasper Johns is credited with the current renaissance of
encaustic fine art with his work that began in the 1950's.
"Why paint in a process-intensive medium that's over 2000 years old?"
is rarely asked. That answer is a given: luminosity, rich surface, the
beauty of the wax.
Carrie Goller interprets this ancient medium into very contemporary
work, creating paintings with brilliant luminosity, as well as some with
a rich, delicate opalescence. Maintaining their freshness and intensity,
they will not darken or yellow. Because of the protective nature of wax
they are impervious to moisture and need not be varnished or put under
glass.

Pacific Northwest
native, Carrie Goller, was advised to become an artist since
childhood and showed in a Bainbridge Island, Washington gallery as a
teen. Goller believes that a battle with breast cancer provided the
stimulus for her to become a serious and dedicated artist.
Art has become a
necessity for me. It's both work and play - exhilarating yet
restorative. It's where I find balance. I am truly grateful for
the support and encouragement I have received to indulge my passion.
Goller is lured
by simple, yet sensuous organic forms and the intoxicating realm of
vibrant colors, shapes and textures found in nature. She transitions
easily within a wide range of genres and media, including oil,
encaustic, watercolor, pastel and charcoal. Although she is
experimental, Goller gravitates toward the classical approach and
asserts that there is always much more to observe and learn. Her
newest venture is Rockwater Art Center, situated in an elegant
turn-of-the-century farmhouse set amidst an acre of beautiful
landscaping and water features. Rockwater serves as a private
retreat for intensive art instruction from some of the country's
best instructors, as well as another gallery for her art.
Encouraged by realism master, Juliette Aristides, Goller is planning
a classical atelier at Rockwater.
Nine galleries
showcase Goller's work, which is in both U.S. and international
collections. The artist's sincere approach to subject matter can be
evidenced from her tender still life portrayals, along with a
passion for rendering portraiture from vintage photographs.
Although she enjoys life studies, Goller has completed challenging
commissions, working from damaged photos as small as 2"x3."
As a colorist, I truly
appreciate Carrie Goller's work. She has a wonderful talent
for creative combinations that really do engage the eye, says
Leatrice Eiseman, Executive Director of the Pantone Color Institute
and Director of the Eiseman Center for Color Information and
Training.
