About Eileen:
Eileen has been an artist her whole life, doing photography, ceramics, drawing and painting using encaustics. Her extensive research and studying diverse topics, such as quantum physics and biology, gives her a rich visual language to serve as a vehicle to express herself. She passionately teaches art and believes that no one should be denied learning to express themselves. Eileen received her BFA from Alfred University and her MFA from the University of Iowa.  Her work is shown in galleries all over the US including Hallway Gallery in Bellevue, WA and Conrad Wilde Gallery in Tucson, AZ. She also shows her work at many prestigious art shows such as the Bellevue Arts Museum Show and 225F: Encaustic Encounters at the Turchin Center for the Visual Arts.

Artist Statement
The Array series is minimalist, grid based, with a soft geometry and emotional color. My work is a quiet reflection of my experiences and feelings. I paint for the pure pleasure of feeling the substance of the encaustic paint and putting my voice into a visual form. I sketch ideas and then paint from those concepts, creating long series of paintings that are related. Complexity, surface, and translucency are elements in my work.
