Working in multiple mediums, Nate Cassie explores the natural world, seeking to capture moments of liminality while discovering ways to physically transcribe a view's ethereal and emotional qualities through layers of encaustic wax. Coming Down the Mountain exemplifies the importance of color choice in abstraction. The simple yet vibrant palette, coupled with the broad expanses of shapes and mottled texture, challenge the viewer's perspective and imagine the details of this landscape.
