8x10 Modern Abstract, Mixed Media Painting, textured Wall Art, Modeling Paste, Black White Minimalist, Contemporary Home Decor Piece

This is an original 8x10 mixed media painting, painted by hand on a solid wooden panel using acrylic paint, modeling paste, and Prismacolor pencils. No AI, no assistants, just me, a palette knife, some music, and a coffee that I kept forgetting to drink. The surface is textured, layered, and a little raw. Some of it is planned, some of it just happens when I’m not looking. The result is something soft but structured, abstract but familiar, like a thought that hasn’t quite formed yet. It’s also a bit of a departure for me. I usually work in encaustic wax, but this time I swapped the blowtorch for spatula and paste. Safer, less smoky, still just as meditative. This painting would feel right at home in a quiet corner, a cozy reading nook, or on the wall near wherever you leave your keys and forget them daily. It has a calm presence, but it’s not trying to impress anyone. Much like me, really. What you’re getting: - Original one-of-a-kind artwork that is signed (for what its worth) - Unique art on a sturdy wood panel - An ideal thoughtful gift for anyone craving a bit of visual stillness or to cover up a hole in the wall. I made this with care, intention, and just enough forgetfulness to keep it interesting. Hope it makes you pause for a moment or at least forget what you were doing in a good way.
