“Haven” mixed media artwork
“Haven”. Mixed media by Stacy Vanden Huevel
Soft, layered washes of ochre, cream, and earth encaustics show a child resting safely in his mother's arms. This sense of comfort lets him explore his world freely. Loose features in the mixed media add depth, while delicate botanicals wrap around them. It feels real and deeply human, as if it exists between a memory and imagination. Have you experienced this as a parent or child?
