Profile

Working with encaustic, both 2 dimensionally and sculpturally, Kim Bernard exhibits her work nationally. Her recent 2-D encaustic works are capture movement: fluid, gestural, spontaneous, whole body movement, as in a dance. The results are sumptuous abstract encaustic paintings that utilize a minimal color palette and repetitive imagery, thick layers of translucent and opaque wax, paper prepared with batik markings and hand rubbed oil stick combined to create multi dimensional panels. Bernard is represented by Arden Gallery in Boston, Boston Sculptors, Bowersock Gallery, Provincetown, MA, Lucky Street Gallery, Key West, FL and McGowan Fine Art, Concord, NH. She teaches regionally as a visiting artist and has offered numerous presentations on encaustic and sculpture, acted as an invited juror and guest lecturer. Bernard is the founding member of New England Wax, a professional association of artists working with encaustic.
