  • Sea Solitude

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A moody and atmospheric mid-century seascape composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

    The subject matter appears to be a coastal scene featuring a tumultuous sea. At the center of the composition is a small, bright red sailboat, providing a striking focal point amidst the otherwise somber palette.

    The style leans toward expressionism and abstraction, focusing on emotion over realistic details. The artist has used a loose, impasto technique, where thick layers of paint create dynamic textures that give the sea and sky an almost tactile quality.

    The palette is restrained, predominantly composed of monochrome shades of grey which dominate the sea and sky, conveying a stormy or overcast mood. The splash of red in the sailboat contrasts sharply, drawing the viewer’s eye.

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

  • Harbour Front

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming harbour town scene painted in 2023 , by British artist Elaine Allender.

    This quayside scene has been built up in layers of paper and paint. We see the village houses tumbling down to the quay, the old harbour walls and a couple of boats moored up on the sea. The painting is full of texture, and has some of the charming roughness associated with real harbours.

    The upper half is dominated by rows of houses with varied shapes and sizes, featuring pitched roofs and small windows. The colour palette of the buildings includes soft blues, earthy browns, and muted creams, adding a rustic and weathered charm. The architectural details, like chimneys and rooflines, are rendered with textured brushstrokes, enhancing depth and realism. The water reflects the dock and buildings above, rendered in soft, blended tones of blue, peach, and grey, creating a shimmering, rippled effect. The sky occupies the top portion of the painting, featuring dynamic swirls of soft blues and creamy yellows, suggesting a bright, breezy day.

    Bright orange buoy-like accents and lifebuoys add pops of colour, drawing attention to specific elements in the scene. The painting’s layered textures and varied strokes add a tactile quality that conveys the atmosphere of a working harbour.

    Overall, the painting beautifully captures the essence of a quaint seaside village, with its blend of rustic charm, lively textures, and serene maritime elements.

    The painting is bordered by a clean, lime-waxed wooden tray frame that complements the coastal theme. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very well executed contemporary harbourside composition, painted in acrylic onto canvas and presented in a very well suited lime-waxed wood tray frame, by British artist Elaine Allender.

    This painting depicts a picturesque view of Polruan Quayside, capturing the charm of the coastal village with a soft, serene atmosphere. We see a layering of the harbourside houses with their gables and slate roofs, painted in a palette of blues, neutrals and terracottas, with pops of orange.  A stone quay runs horizontally across the lower part of the painting, connecting the village to the water.

    The water reflects the buildings and sky above in soft, blurred strokes, creating a mirror-like effect. Several small boats, including black and orange ones, are moored near the quay, adding a touch of activity and maritime character.

    The sky features a gentle gradient of light blue and soft peach, adding warmth to the scene.

    The painting has a semi-abstract, impressionistic style with visible brushstrokes, especially in the water and sky. This work beautifully captures the tranquility and charm of Polruan, emphasizing its connection to the sea and its quaint, timeless character.

    This large acrylic on canvas is housed in a well crafted lime-waxed wood tray frame which gives it a contemporary feel. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Coastal Tranquility

    This serene composition that captures the essence of a quiet coastal village, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1996.

  • Boats by Moonlight

    £530

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and very well executed mid century modernist harbour scene, painted in oil onto canvas.

    This composition depicts a harbour view at night, with the moon casting its light on the boat, buildings and figures. The artist has used the contrasts of shape, colour and form to his advantage to create this modernist scene. The silhouettes of the boats and buildings have been very cleverly outlined with white, and the reflection of the moon can be seen on the water in yellow. In the forefront we see figures also standing in the reflection of the light, which has been painted in white. Towards the right we see a warm glow from the window of a house. This nostalgic composition captures the beauty of the night by the water wonderfully.

    The painting is presented in a very complementary slim gilt frame, which illuminates the painting. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some minor scuffing.

    The painting is housed in a wood frame which complements it very well. The painting has a small loss to the top edge as shown in the close ups, but is otherwise in good condition.

Above, light blues and soft creams represent a broad, open sky, with fluffy, abstract clouds.

  • Reverie

    £240

    Available

    Free Shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    This modernist style painting strikes a fine balance between realism and abstraction. We see a calming and dreamy riverscape on the one hand, but the combination of bold lines, subjective use of colour and  distinct forms and shapes adds an element of abstraction to the piece. We’re unable to tie the landscape to any particular place or moment in time, which lends a sense of mystery to the piece. It allows us to let our minds wander, transporting us to a distant place faraway, away from the stresses of everyday life. The post-impressionist elements of this painting would make it a good fit for a contemporary interior.

    This oil on board comes unframed, and has minor surface marks on the edges that would be easily hidden by a frame.

    SOLD

    A captivating composition with a view of a port with an expressive and dynamic energy, executed in oil on board and dated 1955.

    The painting presents a boat moored by the water at a port. Surrounding the water’s edge, an array of buildings stretch across, their forms rendered with a confident hand.

    The artist’s brushstrokes are assertive and distinct, each one contributing to the overall rhythm of the scene. The forceful application of paint creates an expressive quality, bringing a sense of movement.

    The colour palette is rich yet subdued, featuring shades of green, yellow, brown, and blue. These hues meld together to form a cohesive composition with an almost nostalgic atmosphere.

    This oil on board is housed in a very well-suited wood frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has a small scuff to the top right corner but this does not detract. 

    Size: 47.5 x 56 cm (including frame)

    The sculpture seen in the photos is also available to purchase and details can be viewed here.

  • Seagull by the Sea

    Sold

    SOLD

    A lively and charming mid-century composition that captures both a tabletop arrangement and a coastal town in the background, executed in oil onto board.

    A seagull perches playfully beside a tabletop adorned with a tall black bottle, a white pitcher holding delicate stems, and a decorative bowl resting on a patterned cloth. The serene backdrop features blue waters and a row of houses.

    Reflecting influences of modernism and naïve art, simplified forms, clean lines, and smooth brushwork make up this composition as the artist has skilfully simplified the buildings, table, and objects into geometric shapes and with a flattened perspective.

    An uplifting colour palette featuring cool tones of blues as well as earthy neutral shades have been used, creating a sense of strong sense of balance.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary painted wood frame with multiple ridges. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. 

    Size: 60 x 45 cm (including frame)
