This painting by Christopher Kier is encaustic wax and oil paint on canvas, stretched over a pine frame, signed by the artist on the back, completed in 2016. The black outline is oil paint on canvas, and the symbolic house in the middle is encaustic wax and oil paint, slightly raised off the canvas.

Kier is a contemporary artist who works in encaustic painting and drawing. His work resembles architectural motifs and mid-century design. Encaustic medium is created with beeswax and oil pigments, which he mixes to create lush, rich textures. This painting can bring a sense of meditative, modern style to any setting.

Christopher Kier is originally from Toronto, Canada, but recently moved to Cleveland and has his home and studio in Tremont.
