“Thetis and Peleus”

Photography and Mixed Media on Cradled Wood Panel

Inspired by the ancient myth of Thetis and Peleus — the mortal who dared to hold a sea goddess through her transformations.
In this underwater embrace, their forms blur between air and ocean, human and divine.
Textured layers of photography, acrylic mediums, and fine art materials create a surface alive with motion and translucence — echoing the eternal dance between love, resistance, and surrender.

A one-of-a-kind mixed media original, where myth and water become inseparable, and transformation is rendered in light.

Created through a process that merges modern photography and printmaking with the ancient art of encaustic, layers of molten beeswax, oils, and resins are built up and fused with fire. The textured surface invites touch, its translucent depth suggesting both concealment and revelation. A one-of-a-kind encaustic mixed media painting — where photography, molten beeswax, and oils merge to reveal a serene underwater world. Layers of texture and translucency create a luminous depth that can only be achieved through fire and time.
