About the Item
Path Upwards is painted with oil and wax on canvas created in 2023. The painting contains layers of oil paint built up to a rich surface of whites and greys. The oil paint mixed with cold wax medium creates a slightly matte and textured surface, revealing more of the brushwork behind the mark-making. The energetic and unfussy marking-making brings to mind elements from the landscape or forms from nature. Upon closer observation viewers will see text written underneath the painting and buried underneath the painted layers.
