{"product_id":"february26-112615","title":"Bunch of Radish","description":"oil on hardboard, is created in the tradition of fifteenth- and sixteenth-century painting, using classical techniques such as sfumato and glazing. When I was a child, I often went to the market with my grandmother. The market was alive with bargaining; it could take forever to settle, and we always ended up with more than we needed. I remember the radishes were smooth to the touch, full of fresh earth, and carried that strong, reddish scent that rose from the basket. Soft cheese was next on the shopping list\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eoil on hardboard by \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/magdalenestoryart.com\"\u003eMagdalene Story\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize: 7x9\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cu\u003eAbout Magdalene Story\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI obtained my MFA from San Francisco Art Institute, in New Genre in 1997. In my professional career, I’ve worked as a textile designer for many retailers including HomeGoods, Target, Walmart, Linen and Things, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Marvins California designing quilts, bedding, decorative pillows, throws, curtains, rugs, and many other home textiles. Despite a very rewarding career, I’ve kept creating artwork for my personal enjoyment. Now, moving beyond my professional career, I’m am looking forward to my passion of creative art making on a full-time basis. My work is an exploration of the beauty of our ever-changing world through the lens of Renaissance tradition. By employing classical techniques like sfumato and glazing, I aim to capture a sense of 'preciousness' and timelessness that often feels lost in the digital age. I look back to the masters—not out of nostalgia, but to rediscover forgotten visual stimuli and apply them to the complexities of contemporary life. My goal is to invite the viewer to pause and reconnect with the quiet, luminous depth that only traditional oil painting can provide. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Magdalene Story","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46516713881775,"sku":"SKU-MS-February26-STORY-244397","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0511\/9154\/6031\/files\/2026_February_BunchofRadish_9x7-MagdaleneTeigenStory.jpg?v=1769450608","url":"https:\/\/artswayland.com\/products\/february26-112615","provider":"Arts Wayland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
