About the Item
3rd Version's (Ben Patterson) "Masks We Wear, to Transform" is a 2022 oil painting on cradled panel measuring 18 x 24 x 1.5 inches. The work is unframed but ready to hang. Centered against a stylized backdrop of dripping pink and green, a dark crow stands solemnly in grass, its head lowered beneath a soft, stitched helmet mask. A faint green tear drips from its eye, and above it, a graffiti-style crown is sprayed in loose lines—both regal and raw.
The work blends precision rendering with street-art energy. Patterson’s rich detail in the crow’s layered feathers contrasts with the flat graphic treatment of the background. The stenciled crown references both transformation and vulnerability, a nod to self-identity and dignity reclaimed. Subtle drips and textures hint at urban environments, while the pose and costume infuse the figure with introspection.
Part of Patterson’s "Masks We Wear" series, this painting invites the viewer to consider the ways in which we conceal, protect, or redefine ourselves. "To Transform" is a poignant, visually layered artwork that balances tenderness, symbolism, and edge.
