Abstract Wall Art - Mixed Media Painting

The abstract painting combines oil and acrylic paint techniques to create varied surface textures. Thin paint layers provide a matte finish in select areas, while thicker applications deliver a high-gloss appearance. The mixed media approach features over-painted and reworked sections that reveal underlying layers. The spontaneous composition offers visual depth through its layered construction and contrasting paint finishes.

Thin layers of oil and acrylic paint create a matte finish in sections of this original artwork, while thicker layers of paint in other areas give a high-gloss look. Bristol-based Jack Paffett often uses his surroundings as a starting point for his artworks, before allowing them to become mutated by spontaneous impulses on the canvas. Over-painted, erased and then reworked, his abstract pieces always show remnants of the layers that came before.
