Connection note
Saville's primary medium is oil paint applied in thick, sculptural layers. She drags, smears, and sculpts the paint with obsessive energy, building up visceral surfaces on massive canvases often exceeding 7 feet in height. Specific paint brand not publicly documented.
Product description
Oil paint — pigment suspended in a drying oil, typically linseed — has been the dominant painting medium since the fifteenth century. It dries slowly, allowing extended blending, and produces a rich, luminous surface. Available from dozens of manufacturers at student through professional grades.
