All That Glitters Is… Gold
Original Oil Painting on Reclaimed Artist’s Palette
Framed Size: 11 x 14 inches
Part of the All That Glitters… series, this original artwork explores value, transformation and the creative process through the combination of wildlife portraiture and gilded surfaces.
Painted on a reclaimed artist’s palette, the work retains visible traces of its former purpose. Pencil guidelines, wood grain and marks from previous use remain present, preserving the history of an object once used to create paintings before becoming one itself.
At the centre of the piece, a raven emerges from the warm tones of the palette surface. Surrounding it, hand-applied gold leaf spreads across the artwork and frame, catching the light and shifting in character throughout the day. Rather than concealing the original surface, the gilding works alongside it, creating a dialogue between the natural and the precious, the ordinary and the treasured.
The rich gold tones contrast beautifully with the deep blues and blacks of the raven’s plumage, creating a striking focal point that changes subtly depending on viewing angle and light conditions.
Mounted onto a black panel and presented in a contemporary black wood frame, All That Glitters Is… Gold celebrates both the beauty of the bird and the story of the object beneath it, transforming a working artist’s tool into a finished piece of art.
Ideal for collectors drawn to corvid art, wildlife artwork, natural history, dark academia interiors and original paintings created from reclaimed materials.
