A brilliantly executed mid century vintage oil portrait, painted onto canvas and housed in a very complementary frame.
An elegant female figure with her hair up in a bun and dressed in light blue sits patiently on a chair, with her arms folded. Her blue dress contrasts beautifully with the abstract background on red. Large, expressive swathes of red, orange and brown fill the canvas, and yet the artist has very skilfully used the background to draw attention to the figure, despite the strong colouring.
This lovely textured oil is ready to hang. It is housed in a lovely light blue frame that suits it wonderfully. Both frame and painting are in excellent vintage condition.

A visually striking semi-abstract figurative composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1989.
The painting depicts a female figure seated on a sofa, with her legs casually lifted onto the cushion beside her.
Executed in a semi-abstract manner, the artist displays his painterly skills as he has reduced the composition down to blocks of contrasting lively colours that help to demonstrate depth to the painting.
The facial details of the figure have consciously been omitted, inviting us to focus on the interplay of colours and shapes instead. The silhouette of the female figure has been highlighted by a black outline, and its sketch-like quality adds a spontaneous element to the artwork.

A large and very well executed abstract composition in oil, painted onto canvas.
This abstract composition draws our attention to the inherent beauty in mark making and colour. There is a wonderfully balanced tension between control and looseness in the brushwork of the composition -the colours seem to flow effortlessly and yet the placement of each section and its movement is controlled and intentional. Varying shades of brown, orange and beige bring to mind raw natural elements such as rock, stone, and earth, so the composition could perhaps be inspired by this.
This large oil on canvas is housed in an original mid-century slim wooden frame which suits it perfectly. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A charming and inviting modernist-style composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1969.
The painting presents a scene by a window, overlooking a winter landscape. The artist’s masterful brushstrokes beautifully capture the intricate patterns of delicate white lace curtains that gently drape down the large window. Resting on the window sill are a few small objects including a cat, a cup, as well as some flower pots, each contributing to the composition’s charm. Beyond it, a mix of brown barren trees as well as tall trees adorned with green leaves are growing proudly, providing a vibrant contrast against the white snow-filled grounds.
The short, dab-like and expressive brushstrokes lend a transient and dynamic quality to the painting, as if capturing a fleeting moment in time. This technique enhances the scene’s ethereal atmosphere, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate the beauty of the scenery.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and there is light scuffing to frame edges.

A striking and very well executed mid century semi abstract composition, painted in oil onto board.
We can just about make out what appears to be a view of a port – in the foreground we see the form of a docked boat, with several cargo containers in the background. However the artist has worked under a largely modernist ethos, abstracting the scene down to several block of colour, using the contrasting tones to create depth within the picture. The painting has a beautiful texture too – each brushstroke distinct and perceptible.
This oil on board is housed in a beautiful gilt frame with a linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some wear in keeping with its age, and the linen border as some light age toning.

A large mid century oil on canvas, painted in a distinctly modernist style. The artist has painted a broad, panoramic view of the rooftops of a coastal town, with the view of the sea in the distance. Flat planes of colour in broad and distinct brushstrokes have been juxtaposed one next to the other, creating a sense of space and depth within the picture, leading our eyes from the foreground (the roofs) to the background (the sea). This has also created a geometric effect which gives the painting an element of abstraction.
The painting is housed in its original mid century frame, which has a very wide profile. The inner section has been lined with a grey fabric. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.
Size: 67 x 77 cm (including frame)

An excellently executed mid century nude composition, painted in oil onto canvas.
The artist’s use of colour to create depth and contrast, his expressive and painterly brushwork, and the placement of each brushstroke and how it fits into the composition, are a showcase of his technical and artistic mastery. The composition is wonderfully balanced, with the perfect amount of negative space. A rich colour palette applied in long, broad brushstrokes draw our eye to the nude first. We explore the figure – angular and multidirectional brushstrokes that seem effortlessly applied have in fact been considered carefully, creating just the right amount of light and shade. The artist has left out realistic details of the figure’s body, and yet his allusions through the use of colour leave us perfectly content in knowing what we are looking at it – a fine example of his mastery with his medium and colour. The figure is set against rectangular blocks of colour which tease us into exploring the objects around the figure, while providing balance and harmony within the composition.
The painting is in very good vintage condition and is unframed. It can be hung as is, or set in a new frame. There is a lining around the edges of the stretcher from the previous frame which has worn over time (as shown in close ups), but this can be easily removed.

An intricately detailed mid century oil composition, painted onto canvas.
A line of denuded trees tempt the viewer to look deeper into the painting, drawing our attention the little details that lay awaiting our notice. A row of farmhouses lay dotted along the horizon, giving the painting a wonderful sense of depth. As we move our eyes back toward the foreground of the painting, we notice the way the artist has painted the field, using his brush to delicately dab and stroke the canvas, portraying the tonal differences in the grass, without actually painting in any individual blades, showing off the artist’s technique and mastery with capturing the landscape with impressionistic quality.
This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame with silver detail and linen lined border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A visually striking mid-century oil still life composition, depicting a group of objects including a bottle, some fruits, a piece of bread, and a butter knife laid across a tabletop.

A restrained palette comprising shades of brown and yellow has been used to up this stunning composition.

A brilliantly executed abstract oil composition that captures the essence of a serene coastal landscape with a minimalist approach.
The artwork portrays a figure on the left side of the composition, situated amidst a clifftop landscape of green and brown terrain, and with a visible coastline in the background.

A large and brilliantly executed mid century cubist figure composition, painted in oil onto canvas.
Reminiscent of cubist works by Pablo Picasso, this painting also features fragmentation and abstraction. By breaking the figure and the interior scene down into distinct areas, the artist shows us different view points at the same time and within the same space which suggests their three dimensional form. Yet there is also an emphasis on the two-dimensional flatness of the canvas instead of creating the illusion of depth.
The painting is housed in a textured champagne and gilt frame. Both painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

A small and enigmatic mid-century composition, executed in oil onto board.
2 figures aboard a boat punctuate the foreground of the painting. The direction of the light obscures their details, creating silhouettes of their figures.
Behind them we see another sailing boat, as well as a big ship passing. The artist has focused on the forms of the composition, playfully using a varied series of shapes and the contrast of light and dark to create depth and a sense of space.
Lovely swirling brushstrokes capture the effect of the moving water, as well as the reflection of the water on the hull of the ship. A wonderful range of light pastel colours in soft hues of pale blue and delicate pink and yellow contrast against the dark silhouettes of the figures.

A large and beautifully framed mid century modernist landscape composition in oil.
Skilfully executed, this painting features a farmyard composition in rich, earthy tones and textural paintwork.

An emotive and visually striking mid-century figurative composition, executed in oil on canvas.

A pleasant and well-executed mid 20th century still life oil composition, depicting a flower pot placed on a window sill, with a glimpse into the surroundings outside.
Upon looking at the painting, our eyes are immediately drawn to the flower vase, as its bolder colours are in contrast to the light and gentle pastel shades of the remaining forms.
Through the use of swift and straight brushstrokes, the artist displays his painterly skills by utilising bold outlines as well as qualities of the shading technique and smooth gradation of colour to not only give rise to the various forms in the composition, but also to give the illusion of depth and dimensionality.
This oil on canvas is housed in a gilt frame with lovely red undertones. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
