About LAUREL HAUSLER
A Washington, DC native, Laurel Hausler’s love of literature, antiquity, unsolved mysteries and the obscure inspire the stories behind her work. Working in a subtractive and additive process, she creates the surface of her paintings in encaustic, oil and graphite. Admired for resisting a self-conscious approach to process, Hausler reveals lines, veils and gestures on her surfaces that demonstrate her decision-making process through the work’s evolution to its finished state.
We walk on air, Watson.
There is only the moon, embalmed in phosphorous. – SYLVIA PLATH
On a Strawberry Moon, the night glows with berries in summer, debutante balls and the blurry
incandescent splendor of glamour in decline. – LAUREL HAUSLER
