Waxed acrylic sgraffito on wood, set in an antique frame.
Mouse is a painting by Cornwall-based artist Tabby Booth, whose distinctive practice blends storytelling, folklore, and decorative tradition. Created using waxed acrylic sgraffito on wood, the surface is carved to reveal layers beneath, resulting in a richly textured finish that feels both timeworn and expressive.
Presented in an early antique frame, the piece captures a moment of quiet character and gentle humour, echoing Booth’s interest in handworked imagery and the poetic every day. Her work draws inspiration from scrimshaw, folk art, and the mythic, infusing her subjects with a playful seriousness and graphic strength.
A graduate of Central Saint Martins and co-founder of Sailors Jail Gallery in Falmouth, Booth creates work for what she describes as “the walls of bold, playful people.”
