A richly textured and uplifting abstract painting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1970.

The painting unfolds as a rhythmic interplay of geometric and organic forms, arranged in a loosely interlocking composition that suggests shifting landscapes or architectural fragments without ever settling into literal depiction. The artist has layered broad, rounded shapes against more angular blocks, creating a dynamic sense of balance and movement that keeps the eye travelling across the canvas.

Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the work embraces bold simplification, flat planes, and an intuitive arrangement of colour. The palette is warm and radiant: mustard yellow, ochre, amber, and soft olive green mingle with muted grey and off-white, giving the painting both energy and groundedness. These colours sit side by side in harmonious tension, guided by a thoughtful arrangement of stripes and subtle tonal shifts.

The brushwork is expressive and tactile, with visible texture and confident strokes that bring a sculptural quality to the paint surface. Areas of impasto catch the light softly, revealing the artist’s hand and the physicality of the medium.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary gold painted wood frame. There is some craquelure as shown in the close up photos, and the canvas is slight uneven. Overall, the painting is in stable condition, and these characteristics do not impact the visual appeal of the work.

An atmospheric mid-century landscape that presents a sweeping, almost abstracted view of land meeting sky,  executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition is defined by a broad diagonal plane that draws the viewer’s eye into the distance, suggesting an open field or coastal terrain softened by mist. The forms are intentionally understated, allowing mood and atmosphere to take precedence over literal detail.

Painterly and expressive in style, the work leans toward modernist abstraction while still conveying a sense of place. The artist uses minimal definition, instead relying on tonal shifts and layered colour to evoke depth and quiet movement. The result is a calm, contemplative image imbued with a quintessential mid-century sensibility.

The palette is beautifully muted, composed of warm yellows, earthy browns, and deep moss greens that gradually transition into soft blue-greens, misty greys, and a luminous off-white sky. These colours blend seamlessly, creating the impression of early morning light or distant haze dissolving into the horizon.

The brushwork is gentle and fluid, with broad, blended strokes that form natural gradients across the landscape. Softer applications near the top of the canvas create a diffused, atmospheric quality, while more textured strokes in the foreground add a grounded sense of terrain. The overall effect is meditative and serene, inviting the viewer into a quiet, expansive space.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. There is a small mark visible in the light section of the sky and some areas of craquelure present, but the painting is in good vintage condition overall.

A tranquil and refined mid-century modernist abstract landscape painted in oil onto canvas.

This painting distils a pastoral scene into its most essential forms – three geometric sheep resting within an expanse of green, beneath a horizon softened by the meeting of land, sea, and sky. Two abstracted tree forms rise in the distance, their masses built from diffused tones of moss, teal, and yellow.

The artist employs a restrained and harmonious palette — muted greens merging into turquoise blues – evoking both serenity and space. Broad, matte brushstrokes and delicate transitions of tone give the surface a meditative quietness, while subtle traces of underpainting and warm orange edges reveal the artist’s hand and the passage of time.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary grey wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition
