A warm and evocative landscape that captures the emotional essence of returning to a familiar place, executed in oil onto board.

Rather than focusing on precise detail, the artist distils the scene into interlocking planes of colour, allowing memory and atmosphere to take centre stage.

Soft lilacs, warm golds, pale turquoise blues, and delicate pinks bathe the scene in a gentle light. The colours feel remembered rather than observed, suggesting the emotional landscape of “home” rather than a literal location. Thick, confident brushstrokes and layers of paint add texture and movement, giving the work a vibrant, tactile presence.

The painting balances abstraction and representation beautifully. Houses, water, hills, and pathways are all recognisable, yet they dissolve into a harmonious arrangement of colour and shape.

This oil on board is presented in a custom made wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Old Wall Patterns
£460
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A lyrical landscape that captures the poetry of the countryside through colour, texture, and memory, painted in oil onto canvas.

A winding pale path or stone wall meanders through rolling fields, leading the eye gently into the distance. The landscape unfolds in layers of soft golds, muted greens, russet reds, and dusky mauves, creating a patchwork of fields and vegetation that feels both observed and imagined. A hillside rises across the middle ground, dotted with delicate tree forms rendered as decorative marks and textured clusters, giving the scene a tapestry-like quality.

The title suggests that the landscape is shaped by the enduring presence of old boundary walls—those subtle human interventions that become absorbed into the natural rhythms of the land over time. The pale, serpentine line crossing the composition acts as both a visual guide and a reminder of the history embedded in the terrain.

The artist’s handling of paint is expressive and atmospheric. Layers of translucent colour, scratching, and textured brushwork create a sense of depth and weathered age. Rather than describing every detail, she evokes the feeling of a landscape shaped by seasons, memory, and time.

This oil on canvas is framed in a custom made wide profile frame that suits it wonderfully. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Severn Haze
£460
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A luminous and atmospheric landscape that captures the fleeting beauty of the Severn estuary through colour, light, and abstraction, executed in oil onto canvas.

Rather than describing the landscape in detail, the artist evokes its atmosphere. The painting seems to hover between observation and memory, where forms are softened and edges blurred by moisture in the air. This sense of haze is central to the work, lending it a dreamlike tranquillity and a feeling of vast open space.

The palette is especially striking. Cool aquatic blues and mint greens are balanced by touches of blush pink and buttery yellow, creating a gentle harmony that recalls the changing light of early morning or late afternoon. Loose brushwork and translucent layers allow colours to merge and glow, suggesting reflections, shifting weather, and the ever-changing character of the estuary landscape.

There is a strong sense of calm throughout the painting. The broad horizontal bands of land, water, and sky create a meditative rhythm, while the distant hill anchors the composition and gives it a sense of permanence amid the shifting light.

This oil on canvas is framed in a custom floater frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

All the Angles
£500

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A fun and edgy one-off original monoprint presented in a coloured frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

This monoprint is created from two individual stencils on different ghost print monoprint plates in two separate colours (a ghost print is when the plate has already gone through the press). Whilst the different layers are already in different shapes, there are additional dialogues between the different components because of the different shapes that appear within the main shapes as a result of the ghost print.

Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

This print, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations.

This monoprint is housed in a vivid green frame that further enhances the artwork within. It is protected behind a layer of perspex. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

Size: 61.5 x 44 cm (including frame)

Friesians in the Mist
£480
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly atmospheric painting of Friesian cows in a landscape, executed in oil onto board.

It is a painting that finds beauty not in dramatic scenery, but in atmosphere and fleeting light. It is less a picture of cows in a field than a meditation on stillness, distance, and the soft veiling effects of mist.

The first thing that strikes you is the overwhelming sense of calm. A pale blanket of mist spreads across the landscape, dissolving hard edges and muting detail. The world feels suspended between night and day, perhaps in the first moments after dawn when sound is muffled and the landscape seems half remembered.

The horizon is low and distant, with a line of trees emerging like shadows through the haze. Their softened silhouettes reinforce the feeling of depth while maintaining the painting’s dreamlike quality.

The black-and-white Friesian cattle provide the painting’s emotional anchor. Their distinctive markings emerge gently from the mist. With their heads lowered, they graze quietly, absorbed in their own world. The dark shapes of their bodies create a beautiful contrast against the cool, pale surroundings.

This oil on board is presented in a black wood frame with an inner gilt detail. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Remnants of Civilisation
£410
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

An original abstract painting, executed in oil onto cradled panel.

The painting depicts a landscape theme and explores the concepts of art and architecture. Flat planes in a variety of contrasting colours are arranged together, some intersecting and overlaying, creating an illusion of depth and perspective. These colours are rich and vivid, creating a bright and playful energy. Although smooth and matte in its finish, the artist has included areas where we are able to see the application and texturing of the paint. Juxtaposing the hard angled lines, is a row of scalloping that adds a wonderful detail and draws our eye in.

This oil on cradled panel is ready to hang and does not require a frame. It is in excellent condition.

Three Standing Figures
£490
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking geometric composition in acrylic, painted onto card and dated ’23.

This painting features three abstracted, geometric human figures rendered in a bold, angular Cubist style. The artist uses sharp-edged shapes and planes to construct the bodies, with a palette dominated by earthy ochres, deep reds, purples, blacks, and cool blues.

Each figure is stylized, built from interlocking triangles, rectangles, and trapezoids. Their faces are simplified and mask-like, and their postures suggest movement or conversation, with overlapping arms and angled legs.

Overall, the composition emphasizes form, structure, and colour harmony, inviting the viewer to focus on the interplay of geometric shapes and bold contrasts.

This acrylic on card is housed in a complementary stained walnut wooden frame, and is protected behind perspex. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Off the Beaten Track
£1,180

Free UK Shipping Only.

A large and brilliantly executed contemporary semi-abstract seascape composition, executed in acrylic onto board, by British artist Frances Daws.

A richly layered and highly expressive landscape, this painting captures the untamed beauty of the natural world through a complex interplay of colour, texture and movement. Although abstracted in style, the composition evokes the familiarity of a wild valley or mountain pass, with sweeping forms suggesting rolling hills, winding paths and distant peaks beneath an expansive sky.

Built up with multiple layers of paint, the surface is wonderfully textured and full of character. Each brushstroke contributes to a sense of energy and depth, revealing subtle shifts in tone and gesture the longer you look. Dominant hues of deep reds, moss greens, ochres and earthy browns merge and overlap to create a warm, grounded palette that feels closely connected to the land itself.

When caught by the light, brighter passages of pale blue, blush pink and soft cream emerge from within the composition, adding luminosity and contrast. These lighter notes bring a sense of atmosphere and openness, as though sunlight is breaking through clouds and illuminating sections of the landscape below.

There is a compelling sense of both movement and structure in the work. Fluid, sweeping marks guide the eye through the scene, while the varied colours and textures create a layered terrain that feels rugged, organic and alive. The painting rewards close inspection, revealing new details and relationships with each viewing.

Bold yet harmonious, this piece would bring warmth, depth and a strong connection to nature into an interior. It is an engaging and atmospheric work for anyone drawn to expressive landscapes and richly textured contemporary painting.

This large painting is beautifully presented in a custom made white tray frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition. The artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

Frances Daws is a British Artist working in the Southwest of England. Primarily a painter she also works within printmaking. Having lived by the English coastline and now residing within the countryside her work is often formed by ‘colour journeys’ a form of mapping the landscape through the emotive language of colour.

Chasing After the Wind
£525
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed contemporary abstract composition, executed in acrylic onto board, by British artist Frances Daws.

This evocative abstract seascape captures the raw energy and movement of a rugged coastline in shifting weather. Painted in layered tones of deep indigo, slate blue, charcoal and soft whites, the composition suggests waves surging and breaking over dark rocks beneath a vast, unsettled sky.

Rather than describing the scene in literal detail, Frances distils the landscape into sweeping brushstrokes and expressive marks. Broad, gestural strokes create a sense of constant motion, as if wind and water are reshaping the shoreline before our eyes. The interplay of light and dark conveys the dramatic contrast between the foaming sea and the solid, enduring presence of the rocks.

There is a wonderful sense of atmosphere in the painting. Pale creams and misty whites open up the sky, allowing light to filter through the clouds, while the rich blues and greys below evoke the weight and power of the ocean. The result is both dramatic and meditative, capturing that familiar coastal feeling where nature feels untamed, yet deeply calming.

Though abstract in style, the work remains strongly connected to the natural world, inviting the viewer to imagine crashing waves, shifting weather and the rhythmic pulse of the sea. It is a piece that rewards repeated viewing, with new details and emotional nuances emerging over time.

Elegant and atmospheric, this painting would bring a sense of depth, movement and tranquillity to any interior, making it an ideal choice for those drawn to coastal landscapes and expressive contemporary abstraction.

The painting is beautifully presented in a custom made Trescoll slab frame, which allows you to see the edges of the painting. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition. The artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

To Gaze Upon Beauty
£390
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed contemporary semi-abstract seascape composition, executed in acrylic onto board, by British artist Frances Daws.

A simple yet deeply evocative seascape, this small abstract painting captures the enduring rhythm and quiet power of the sea. Set within a generous deep frame, the composition feels almost like a treasured coastal memory, something glimpsed through a window and held in suspension.

Sweeping brushstrokes and layered tones of navy, slate blue, soft grey and sandy ochre suggest waves rolling and folding over one another beneath a luminous sky. The forms are pared back to their essentials, allowing the painting to communicate through movement, colour and atmosphere rather than precise detail. This simplicity is part of its charm; the scene feels immediately familiar, even if no specific location is defined.

There is a striking balance between gentleness and strength. The pale upper section offers a sense of openness and calm, while the darker, more energetic marks below hint at the ocean’s underlying force. The result is a work that feels both soothing and dynamic, echoing the way the sea can be restorative and powerful at the same time.

The deep frame gives the piece a sculptural presence, drawing the eye inward and lending the painting a sense of intimacy and focus. Modest in scale but rich in atmosphere, it is a quietly compelling work that would bring a touch of coastal serenity and contemporary elegance to any interior.

The painting is beautifully presented in a custom made St Ives frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition. The artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

Geometric Collage in Dark Brown
£380
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very unique original artwork by British artist Dave Boyd, constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards) mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

At the centre is a compact vertical block of four rectangles, arranged in a tight grid. The arrangement feels deliberate and balanced, like a coded visual fragment.

The surface surrounding this central form is rich with the history of its previous life. Dark, charcoal-toned book covers dominate the background, with horizontal scuffs, striations, and fading that reveal years of handling and wear. A visible seam across the middle hints at the joining of separate covers, reinforcing the idea of reconstruction.

The binding cloth used in the coloured rectangles subtly contrasts with the rougher ground. The crisp geometry of the central block stands in tension with the imperfect, weathered field.

Boyd distills their physical essence into a minimal composition that speaks of time, use, and renewal—less about what was written, and more about what remains.

The artwork is presented in wood frame that suits it very well. It has been constructed with professional grade adhesive and is shipped with robust fixings, ready to hang. Both artwork and frame are in excellent condition.

Dave’s artistic practice focuses on the juxtaposition between the manmade and the natural and the human experience of geometric forms, surfaces and materials. Paintings and collages often embody a built or constructed aesthetic and are strongly influenced by architecture and the built environment, with the aim of suggesting visual encounters with structures and landscapes. Utilising and repurposing materials, with a focus on minimal composition, surface and colour, Dave’s work seek to utilise the subtle marks inherent in objects that have been used and handled over many years.

Geometric Collage in Sandstone

Sold

SOLD

A very unique original artwork by contemporary British artist Dave Boyd, which has been constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards), and mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

This Dave Boyd work is a refined meditation on balance, material memory, and geometry, crafted from objects that once held stories, now transformed into something more abstract and contemplative.

In it we have a vertical alignment of four softly rendered circles anchors the piece, each one subtly distinct in tone. hey sit in perfect balance, like a totemic sequence or visual rhythm, guiding the eye gently downward.

The background is richly textured. Faded ochres, worn browns, and chalky whites create a weathered, timeworn surface. Horizontal marks and abrasions hint at handling, storage, and history. A visible seam across the middle quietly reveals its constructed, layered origin.

You can almost feel the past life of the materials which have been handled, read, discarded, and reimagined.

Geometric Collage in Taupe

Sold

SOLD

A very unique original artwork by contemporary British artist Dave Boyd, which has been constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards), and mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

At the centre sits a small vertical grid of coloured squares, arranged in a neat, almost architectural column. Each block (muted red, ochre, green, teal, grey, and off-white) carefully chosen, like a restrained palette study. Its symmetry contrasts with the more irregular, weathered background.

The surrounding field is a rich, earthy expanse, layered with horizontal marks, striations, and subtle tonal shifts. There’s a tension between precision (the grid) and imperfection (the background).

Colour, material, and space are reduced to essentials. It invites slow looking, rewarding attention with subtle shifts in tone and texture rather than bold statements.

Geometric Collage with 4 Circles

Sold

SOLD

A very unique original artwork by British artist Dave Boyd, constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards) mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

It features a vertical alignment of four textured circles—each a slightly different hue of earthy reds, browns, and burgundy—centred against a richly layered, abstract background of burnt orange, yellow, and sienna tones. The tactile surface gives a weathered, organic feel, and the texture of the book bindings adds depth and history to the composition.

The visual symmetry of the circles contrasts with the expressive and imperfect background, inviting viewers to reflect on order within disorder or harmony within age and decay.

Golden Leopard
£420
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A charming contemporary naïve style painting, executed in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

The composition presents a leopard in profile, moving gently across a simplified landscape. Set against a muted grey sky with faint, stylised clouds, the figure strides along a deep green ground, evoking a calm and contemplative mood.

Rendered in a contemporary naïve style, the work embraces flat perspective and bold simplification. The leopard is defined by clean outlines and slightly exaggerated proportions, while depth is suggested through simple bands of colour, enhancing its graphic clarity and appeal.

The palette is warm and harmonious. Golden yellows and soft creams of the leopard’s coat are punctuated by rhythmic black spots, set against the cool grey background and deep green foreground for gentle contrast.

Brushwork is smooth and controlled, with flat, even application that emphasises shape and pattern. The overall finish is clean and deliberate, embodying the charm of the naïve aesthetic with a confident contemporary edge.

This oil on board is presented in a dark wooden frame with an inner gilt window. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition.

British artist Matt Rix spent his childhood in South Africa and now lives with his family on a small holding in rural North Wales. His paintings are uncomplicated, modernist representations influenced by primitive and naïve folk art from times past. Many of the subjects Rix paints are inspired by the animals he sees from day to day. Rix uses recycled materials including discarded paints, boards, frames and backing paper. Much of his work is therefore produced using waste materials resulting in sustainable paintings that evoke a time-worn, nostalgic essence.

Rendered in a contemporary naïve style, the work embraces flat perspective and bold simplification. The lion is defined by clean outlines and gently exaggerated proportions, with depth suggested through simple bands of colour, enhancing its graphic clarity and appeal.

The palette is warm and restrained. Soft sandy tones of the lion’s body are complemented by a rich, dark mane, set against the cool grey background and deep green foreground for balanced contrast.

Hanging Sloth

Sold

SOLD

A contemporary painting that presents a whimsical depiction of a sloth suspended upside down from a gently curving tree branch , painted in a naïve style in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

The composition is pared back, allowing the single figure to become both the focal point and the emotional anchor of the work. Sparse foliage punctuates the scene, floating around the sloth like pauses in thought, reinforcing a sense of stillness and calm.

The style is deliberately simplified, with a subtle nod to folk art and modern naïve painting. Flattened forms and soft contours give the subject an emblematic rather than literal presence, while the sloth’s rounded body and elongated limbs create a gentle rhythm across the board, anchored by the horizontal branch.

A restrained, soothing palette of warm brown and taupe contrasts with a muted blue-grey background, accented by soft green leaves. Smooth, matte brushstrokes and a lightly textured surface enhance the contemplative mood of the piece.

In the Moment
£495
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very well executed contemporary coastal composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

This painting portrays a vast, windswept beach under a dramatic, cloud-streaked sky. The horizon is low and dark, with rolling hills framing the edge of the sea, while the expansive sky dominates the upper half of the canvas in shifting tones of blue and grey.

Scattered across the wet sand are small, loosely rendered figures, their reflections faintly mirrored on the glistening surface. The central figure draws the viewer’s eye and lends a quiet narrative to the scene. The broad, gentle brushstrokes and subdued palette evoke a fleeting, introspective mood — capturing the stillness and solitude of a moment suspended in time.

The painting conveys the feeling of being immersed in nature’s vastness, where human presence is small but meaningful, and the world unfolds slowly in light and shadow.

This painting is unframed, but can be hung as is. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

The Hidden Cove

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very atmospheric and expressive costal composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

The painting captures a serene and intimate stretch of coastline, where a rugged cliff descends into a secluded bay. The composition leads the viewer’s eye from the grassy, windswept foreground down to the white surf curling against the rocks, and out across the vivid turquoise sea.

The brushwork is loose and expressive, giving movement to the sea and texture to the land. Shades of teal, sea green, and cobalt blue dominate the palette, evoking freshness and clarity, while subtle earthy tones add contrast and depth to the coastal terrain.

The painting evokes a sense of discovery and peaceful isolation, as though stumbling upon a quiet, unspoiled corner of nature. It’s a contemplative, windswept scene that invites viewers to pause and take in the rhythm of the sea.

Quiet Expanse
£510

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very atmospheric contemporary abstract composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

Cup Collective
£350
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A contemporary still life painting that presents a playful arrangement of cups, each uniquely patterned and simplified into bold, graphic silhouettes, painted by British artist Annemarie Derrick in 2025.

The composition features eight cups and mugs, neatly arranged in a grid, their individuality revealed through distinct decorative motifs – spots, stripes, florals, and sunburst designs.

The style is characteristically contemporary with a nod to mid-century design sensibilities, balancing minimalism with whimsy. Executed in a muted palette of greys, creams, and whites, the work is enriched by subtle terracotta accents along the handles and outlines, lending warmth to the restrained tones. The background is painted in a flat, earthy grey that allows the cups to stand forward with quiet presence.

The brushwork is confidently loose and textural, with visible strokes that add depth and tactility to the surface while retaining an intentionally naïve, hand-drawn charm. The simplicity of form and repetition creates a sense of rhythm and order, while the variety of decoration introduces individuality and delight.

This painting is on cradled wooden panel and is presented in a white wooden floating frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Sunny Cup
£315
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking contemporary still life painting that transforms the simplicity of everyday objects into an elegant study of form and balance, by British artist Annemarie Derrick and painted in 2025.

A tall jug, a short cup, a chalice-like cup with a simple sun motif, and a spoon are rendered with clarity and restraint against a muted, structured backdrop.

Rendered in a naïve style, the painting captures stillness and poise. The restrained palette of soft greys, creams, and earthy neutrals brings a timeless quality, while the fine black outlines and deliberate brushwork lend both clarity and texture. The acrylic surface carries a tactile richness, with subtle variations in tone and brushstroke adding depth to the otherwise minimal arrangement.

This acrylic painting is mounted a white wooden floating frame. There is a very tiny area of white on the taller jug, but the painting is in very good condition overall. The frame is in excellent condition.

A playful and edgy one-off original monoprint presented in a sapele frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

Unlike most printmaking, where artists create an edition of identical prints, a monoprint produces just one final piece. Olivia works on a plate — inking, painting, and layering textures — and then transfers the image onto paper. But because of the process, it can never be repeated in the same way again.

This artworks is a two layered monoprint which creates new lines and curves through the simple layering. This allows each shape to emphasise its own individuality.

Each work holds the spontaneity of the moment it was made — the way the ink spread, the pressure of the press, the marks left behind. No two are ever alike. When you own one of Olivia’s prints, you’re holding the only version that exists.

Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

This artwork, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations. The fixtures on the back of all the prints are on each side so that they can be hung in any direction, and the signature also has no intended direction.

It is mounted and housed in a high quality sapele wood frame with anti reflective UV glass. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

Size: 61 x 44 cm (including frame)
