Saffron is a painting of a mermaid by Cornwall-based artist Tabby Booth. The artwork is created using waxed acrylic sgraffito on wood, with the surface carved to reveal underlying layers, giving the piece a textured finish.
The piece is presented in a beautiful early 19th-century gilt antique frame, sourced from France. Booth’s work is influenced by scrimshaw, folk art, and mythology, blending these elements to create a graphic and expressive style.
Booth, a graduate of Central Saint Martins and co-founder of Sailors Jail Gallery in Falmouth, creates works intended for “the walls of bold, playful people.”
