3rd Version (Ben Patterson)
"Masks We Wear, to Coincide" by 3rd Version - Oil, Fox and Mouse Landscape

2022

About the Item

3rd Version's (Ben Patterson) "Masks We Wear, to Coincide" is a 2022 oil on cradled panel measuring 20 x 16 x 1.5 inches. The piece is unframed but ready to hang. This imaginative composition depicts a fox and a mouse standing together in a radiant landscape, both wearing playful cartoon-style masks—each donning the face of the other. The fox’s sleek form and lush tail are rendered with painterly realism, while its mask simplifies its features into sharp graphic lines. Beside it, the small mouse stands upright wearing a fox mask, looking proudly ahead with exaggerated eyes and whiskers. Set against a stylized backdrop of rising rays and purple-orange layered hills, the work brims with warmth, humor, and symbolic storytelling. The glowing background casts a surreal ambiance that balances the work’s intricate natural textures with bold illustrative contrasts. As part of Patterson’s "Masks We Wear" series, this painting delves into the complexity of identity and perception. By reversing roles and swapping appearances, the piece suggests empathy, aspiration, and the duality of self and other. It is a visually arresting work that invites viewers to explore character, camouflage, and connection with wit and style.
