The original artwork is encaustic mixed media, hot wax, pigments, ink, and shellac on wood, 2021.
"I let the materials and the fire shape the paintings."
The series was inspired by the euphoria of late autumn nature. Nature itself is close to me, I often draw a theme from it. Instead of the whole, I like to show the fraction of it.
In my work, the limited controllability of liquid wax, the spread of inks, and the burning of shellac create one-time and unrepeatable paintings. This ensures the uniqueness of the painting you own.

Dora Stork is a contemporary Hungarian artist. She gained international recognition as a selected artist in the London Art Biennale in 2023. An award-winning painter, Dora's art has been featured in solo and group exhibitions in prestigious venues across the UK, Hungary, and Romania. Her distinctive creations have found a home in private collections spanning the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Japan.
Identifying as an abstract realist encaustic painter, Dora Stork employs a unique artistic approach that involves using color in an abstract manner, portraying form in a realist fashion, and infusing her work with symbolic significance. Her paintings serve as a reflection of her keen interest in public life, as well as social and economic processes, offering viewers a thought-provoking perspective on these complex issues. Dora strives to construct dreamlike compositions that challenge perceptions, using incongruous details and peculiar circumstances to evoke a sense of familiarity.
Dora's chosen medium is hot wax painting, an ancient technique that imparts durability, vividness, and scratch resistance to her creations. Notably, she exclusively employs self-made wax media, without the addition of oil or other paints. The artist applies layers of hot wax paint with precision, controlling the flow to prevent unwanted color mixing.
In her recent works, Dora has embraced OSB (Oriented Strand Board) as a base for her encaustic pieces, appreciating its industrial texture and environmental sustainability derived from recycled wood. The unique patterns of the wood veneer contribute to a rustic industrial atmosphere that becomes an integral part of the composition, achieved by skillfully scraping back layers of paint. Each piece becomes a one-of-a-kind creation due to the distinctive pattern of the wood.
Dora Stork is an active member of various prestigious art organizations, including the Fine Arts Capital Art Society since 2023, the Society of Scottish Artists since 2021, the National Society of Fine and Applied Arts since 2010, and the Újpest Artist Society since 2009. Through her participation in these organizations, Dora continues to contribute to and engage with the vibrant art community, further solidifying her impact on the contemporary art scene.
