TENDERED
48" x 60"oil on canvas $6200Tendered considers the way things grow softer, more loved, over time.
Patterns in nature heavily influenced this painting. In some of the earlier layers, I used rubbings of the different surfaces of ground, creating a foundation for the composition. The colors were deeply informed by the patinas found on aged metal—subtle shifts created through time, exposure, and touch.
Part of the series Patina:
These works focus on the grit of time. Patina is a record of contact—a visible trace of what has been touched, weathered, worn, and transformed. It is a way of looking at aging, growth, and decay through a more permanent lens, one that feels more like a circle than a line.
The work considers the marks that accumulate over time and how those layers become part of what we carry forward.
