I am a Canadian artist with biophilic tendencies creating amorphous and biomorphic works in encaustic and clay. Thankful to be living and creating on the unceded territory of the Syilx Okanagan people. 🐝🇨🇦🪸🍄 www.angelahansenart.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/angelahansenart.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/angelahansenart.bsky.social/post/3logu7nkuus2kJust a few of the little sweeties I've just unloaded from the kiln!
