Starting on December 6th, we’ll be featuring the amazing encaustic work of Lauri Arntsen and Victoria Primicias. These two artists are masters of their craft and the show highlights the delicacy and the versatility of their medium.

Victoria Angelique Primicias is a 25-year graphic design veteran whose work has been recognized in the American Institute of Graphic Arts publications, Print magazine, Communication Arts magazine, and more. She holds a BA in Fine Art History from the University of Toronto and Graphic Design from George Brown College. She describes her work as spiritual, contemplative, tactile and, in subject matter, ordinary. Vast expanses of sky, water and barren fields can magnify feelings of loneliness but the highly textured, raised surfaces invite interaction.

Lauri Arntsen is an award winning Fine Artist whose creative wheels are constantly spinning. After a successful career in Graphic Design, she began painting vividly hued conceptual landscapes. While her oil paintings were readily accepted for corporate and private collections, she has, more recently, explored and captured attention for her encaustic and mixed media works. Pieces thought to be too eccentric or “outside the box” have proven otherwise and inspired a more abstract vision for the artist.

We’ll also have live music by singer, songwriter, keyboard Player, and electronic musician, John Worth Hansen (and his four-piece band).
