Wilf (Outerworlds series) Acrylic

'Wilf' balances calm sweeps of brushwork with compact, layered marks that create texture and depth. Instinctive lines trace his many arms, their fragile, spindled forms reaching delicately across a field of vivid green coral.

The coral’s dominant hue provides a striking counterpoint, amplifying Wilf’s presence while lending the scene a sense of vibrancy and contrast. Moments of scuffled paint bring vitality and movement, while overpainting enriches the surface with tidal shifts of colour. With the sides left unpainted, the process is laid bare — a juxtaposition of stark canvas against living form. Wilf is both tranquil and alive, a brittle star imbued with quiet dignity, fragility, and impulsive presence.

Supplied unframed, ready to hang. Jelly Buckingham’s paintings are held in private collections across Europe and each comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
