(More gallery details at the bottom of the page).

“History, folk tales, fairy tales, and mythology are the core inspirations for ‘Into Gold,’ an exhibition of mixed media encaustic work by artist Elizabeth M. Willey. She layers complex patterns with iconic images from folk and fairy tales, blending familiar and obscure narratives into one-of-a-kind art pieces. The results are deliciously magical interpretations of favorite stories and curious imagery of stories unknown.”Please join us to view these works and celebrate with the artist on Friday, September 7, 5pm-8pm. The work will remain on view through October 27 and conclude with an artist talk and closing reception that day 1pm-4pm.”

Below is an image of one of the artworks included in the show:
