About the Collection
Velatura is a method of indirect painting performed by applying numerous layers of semi-opaque to semi-translucent paint to a work of art in stages, letting each dry completely before adding another. As the layers all possess some level of transparency, light passes through the paint, hitting the canvas and reflecting back toward the viewer. This creates an otherworldly, glowing, living effect that is inimitable by any other means. The nature of the technique requires a tremendous amount of time--the more glazes, the more rich and beautiful the effect--and is very unforgiving of mistakes. The artist that dedicates to this slow, careful, path--to return, again and again, layer after layer, week after week--will bring a rare and singular beauty into the world.
This collection features an Open Edition, a 24-hour 1/1 Auction, a 100 edition FCFS (for previous collectors only), and an exclusive airdrop (for Claire Silver's 1/1 holders). Minimum bid increase for the Auction is $20. The Open Edition will be available for 10 minutes only from 6:30P - 6:40P EST. The Auction and FCFS will both begin at 7:00P EST.
