CREATING COMPLETENESS is a series of encaustic wax works of art inspired by the uniquely human desire for self-awareness and completeness. Through stream-of-consciousness painting, Burkholder elicits a subconscious repeated pattern of abstract circles. In belief systems, the circle symbolizes completion; the embodiment of spiritual energy; eternity; a mirror in which everything is contained and revealed.
