Mylar—a slick, non-porous drafting film—offers a unique, translucent surface that completely transforms the behavior of paint and drawing mediums. Unlike canvas or panel, which absorb the medium, Mylar allows paint to float, glide, and layer with vivid luminosity and depth.

This curated spotlight explores how each artist harnesses the material's distinctive qualities:

Johnny Taylor uses the slick surface to layer graphic, urban horizons with lush botanical motifs, balancing bold sweeps of color and abstract energy to explore the overlap between cityscapes and nature.

Madeleine Lamont leverages the translucency to create lush, romantic, and expressive botanical compositions where light filters through every brushstroke.

Judith Geher explores the surface through her signature gestural mark-making, allowing raw negative space and translucent layers to give her figures a delicate, nostalgic presence.

Nicholas Tay utilizes the slick surface to merge crisp, technical draftsmanship with expressive mark-making, using Mylar's inherent translucency to layer figurative forms, memory, and emotional narrative.

A Collector’s Opportunity
Falling into the category of "works on paper," pieces on Mylar offer a rare entry point into collecting original works by these celebrated artists at a more accessible price point—without compromising on scale, vibrancy, or visual impact.
