Latex on Canvas

32”L x 32"H

2023

Hilary Gent is a painter who works with oil and latex mediums, inspired by the urban and natural landscape. Her recent works use latex house paint that is mixed in cups and layered onto the surface of the canvas via a pouring process. Her paintings are inspired by the extensive color palettes from reflections of light, landscape and other objects in and on the water. Touch, sound and sight conjure a personal connection with landscape, which Gent translates into her paintings.

The Night: 

My nights as a mother are layered with blurry moments and bedtime routines. Lights dancing on the evening waters are reminders to let go until the next day comes calling.
