Michele Thrane

I am primarily a printmaker and mixed media artist.  My current work involves a process that integrates encaustic monotypes with mixed media.

I practice a form of “asemic writing” which is a kind of invented calligraphy.  My work features seeming-symbols that evoke real letters, musical notations and sometimes, scientific equations.  These seeming-symbols are gestural abstractions that invite the viewer to project a variety of meanings into the work
