Refined, by Payton James, is a collection of abstract landscapes that explore the liminal space between breaking and becoming, where what was lost begins to take new form. Through layered textures, fractured surfaces, and glimmers of gold, each piece honors the quiet strength formed in the in-between and the beauty that emerges on the other side.
Soft atmospheric color meets rough underlying texture in this quietly hopeful landscape. Beneath the calm surface, the marks of the journey remain—but the gold begins to glimmer again, speaking to the gentle promise that each morning offers a new beginning.
Materials: Oil paint sticks, mixed media
Size: 20” x 24”
