Rising Aurum Original Painting
Rising Aurum Original Painting
16x20 inches oil over mixed media and 80ct gold layered on high cotton deep edge canvas.
Created on a premium 100% cotton canvas using high quality heavy-body acrylics, mixed media and Gamblin oil paints.
Meaning Behind the Piece:
Rising Aurum reflects the idea that true radiance is not something placed on the surface. It is something that has always existed underneath.
The portrait is painted over genuine 24ct gold leaf, meaning every layer of colour, every mark, and every shadow rests upon gold. Even when it is not fully visible, that foundation continues to glow quietly through the painting. This becomes a symbol within the work itself.
The woman in the piece represents a life that has carried experience, love, loss, and growth. Her strength is not expressed through armour or resistance, but through the quiet confidence of someone who has moved through life and remained whole.
The gold beneath the surface speaks to a deeper truth. No matter how many layers life adds, the light underneath remains. It may become hidden for a time, but it is never truly lost.
Rising Aurum honours that kind of resilience, the kind that does not need to dazzle or explain itself, because its radiance has always been there.
This painting exists only once and will never be recreated.

About the Painting Process
About the Painting Process
Each of my paintings is created through layers of mixed media, allowing colour, texture, and mark making to evolve naturally over time. I work intuitively, responding to what the painting begins to reveal rather than forcing it into a predetermined outcome.
Because of this layered process, every piece carries subtle details that continue to reveal themselves over time.
Where This Piece Belongs
Where This Piece Belongs
This painting works beautifully in spaces where art is meant to be felt rather than simply noticed, above a console table, in a living room, or in a quiet reading corner where colour and presence can anchor the space.

Seen Up Close
In person the surface carries far more depth than photographs can capture. Subtle textures, layered colour transitions, and small marks appear differently as light moves across the canvas throughout the day.

FREE DELIVERY
Every original painting leaves my studio in Hertfordshire carefully and individually packaged by hand. Because I work with oil over layered mixed media, some newer paintings require additional time in the studio before they are ready to travel, to ensure the surface arrives with you in perfect condition.
Please allow up to four weeks from purchase for your painting to be prepared and dispatched. You will hear from me once it is on its way.
