IEA Member Artist Profile

Ruth Gooch

Ruth Gooch is an artist working primarily in encaustic. Her background in fine art black and white photography brings intrigue to much of her encaustic work. Her work draws the viewer into the image. She varies her palette with black and white and the exciting range of encaustic color.

ARTIST STATEMENT

The ancient encaustic materials provides the perfect medium to explore the depth of an image or painting. The ability to paint layers and layers of wax to showcase the translucency of color, or carve down to see the image emerging is exciting to me. With my black and white series the wax allows me to extend the meaning and intrigue of my images to a deeper range.
