Encaustic
Sonka Stultz Design works with clients to find art that enhances the beauty of any interior design project. In the past, our founder, Ms. Stultz, occasionally created custom art pieces to suit the particular tastes of clients. In 2020, inspired by her travels, and the seclusion brought on by outside forces, she began to passionately pursue encaustic painting.
