Oil and oil stick on canvas
Stretched canvas
Being purposeful in promoting texture on this painting, it teases the viewers to touch the painting (when perhaps they shouldn’t) as art can be enjoyed both physically and visually. Paint is applied directly from the tube and mixed directly on the canvas. The unpredictable dynamic that follows is one that can only come with letting go and trusting the process. The use and application of an oil stick bring together the artwork, providing a new texture for the viewer.
With multiple layers, there releases details that are only revealed when you take the time to look deep in the art work. The colour palette and bold shapes play an integral part in forcing the viewer’s eyes over every inch of this piece, highlighting these little details.
The thought process behind this painting explores the dynamics of asking viewers to not to conceptualize an artwork, but to enjoy the thought that we need not try to isolate art into a single aesthetic identity.

Sustainability
Inherent within our ethos is the ideal that investing in exclusive limited-edition art with known provenance is the antithesis to ‘fast fashion’ generic prints. Finding a work that sings to your soul is likely to ensure you love it enough to cherish it for life, thus avoiding the inevitable binning of fad purchases from the plastic-plant aisle of a major retailer.
Where possible, Bison Art uses recycled materials, and we avoid unnecessary over-packaging. Plus, as the delivery of works is from the artist’s studio, we are able to minimise excess transportation costs.
