It feels like such a hard world these days, doesn’t it? It can be a challenge to find a bit of softness. Colorado artist Ruth Hiller juxtaposes industrially crafted plywood with brightly colored organic beeswax, creating a happy softness among the hard edges.
I love the kind of California-surfer-cool vibe to these. The summery colors against the wood grain have a mod, beach house feel. The graphic nature also seems to nod to visual identifiers like signs and flags. Whatever wave she is riding, sign me up!

Great comparison, RM!
