Factum by J. Kent Martin is a deeply tactile abstract built from layered grays, blacks, and mineral whites, anchored by a central light form that suggests permanence and truth. Heavy impasto and distressed textures reinforce the work’s sense of authenticity, echoing the meaning of its title. Subtle tonal shifts and material layering reveal the artist’s process at every stage. This original mixed-media painting offers a grounded, intellectual presence ideal for contemporary interiors.
