Where danger seduces and sweetness deceives.

Venom & Nectar is an intimate 8x8" canvas layered with encaustic wax and symbolic tension. A serpent weaves through bold yellows and reds—colors that pulse with vitality and caution. Embedded in the composition is a “Romeo y Julieta” cigar band, nodding to romance that tempts, entices, and wounds.

This piece speaks to the blurred line between desire and threat. It’s not just a painting—it’s a question: how much risk do we accept in the name of beauty?
