Jo Sinclair Way of BEE-ing
2019-10-27 16:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | W.B.Tatter Studio Gallery, 501 Anastasia Boulevard, Saint Augustine, 32080
On October 27th from 4-8, the W.B.TATTER Studio Gallery will present Jo Sinclair Way of BEE-ing.
Jo Sinclair has an interest in ancient art. Encaustics is the art of painting with beeswax, resin and pigments. The earliest evidence of this medium, the Roman Fayum Portraits, were used to adorn and thus identify the mummies of the Ancient Roman deceased in 200AD.
Using this art form, Jo has created the series called Way of Bee-ing.
Sinclair was inspired by the volunteer work of her husband Bo Sterk, artist/beekeeper, who had been volunteering throughout Caribbean for about 15 years, teaching and training the islanders in the best beekeeping practices for sustainable development. Since she is allergic to the bees, she decided to paint with the wax instead. Working with the beeswax reminds her of hours spent as a young child under the hot summer sun melting Crayola crayons with a small magnifying glass on the sidewalk. Yet now the process involves the adult artist at play. Today, as one of her mediums, she continues to BEE in the flow with the art of encaustic painting.
Bees Beyond Borders is a 501 3C non-profit (beesbeyondborders.org) founded by Bo Sterk, President, Florida Master Craftsman Beekeeper and President of St. Johns County Beekeepers. the mission is to provide bee biology and bee education and training in best practices of apiary management for sustainable development. With over 20 years of experience, Bo decided to start BBB in early 2019 due to major budgets cuts in governmental spending so he could continue his work with beekeepers throughout the Caribbean, especially in Haiti. Besides the raising funds for further mission work throughout the Caribbean, BBB is presently committed to raise monies to assist the affected beekeepers of the Bahamas for Bahamas Beekeepers Hurricane Relief Fund through CrowdRise or direct donations to Bees Beyond Borders 501 3C.
Come hear about Bo’s mission work, Bees Beyond Borders non-profit, and Bahamas Beekeepers Hurricane Relief Fund. It’s your opportunity to donate to “Save the Bees = Feed the People” during the opening reception event and through the following First Friday for “Way of Bee-ing”, encaustic mixed-media paintings by Jo Sinclair.
