This is a 12x12” acrylic and oil painting on a gallery thick, 1.5” birch wood panel. "Green Olives" is the seventh painting in the Sustenance Series.

Stand close to the work and see the piece fragment into impressionistic geometry, or stand back and watch it knit together into a more photo-realistic artwork.

A signature look of the series is how the painting wraps around the edges of the panel by a 1/2”, the remaining depth was left the blonde birch wood. The entire piece, edges included, is coated in a satin varnish.

The photo referenced for this painting was curated and captured by the artist, Hannah Kilby.
