“Nearness” is an oil painting created over pure copper leaf, depicting a puffin in close presence, its tilted head and closed beak suggesting a moment of quiet awareness. The intimate composition reduces distance between viewer and subject, allowing the bird to feel less observed and more met.
The surface is built upon textured copper leaf, where relief marks create a softly dimensional ground that catches and reflects light. Layers of oil paint are applied selectively to develop form while preserving passages of exposed copper, allowing the natural warmth and luminosity of the metal to remain active within the work. The painting offers a gentle sense of proximity and shared space, where nearness becomes both physical and emotional.
