Greyhound with Yellow Collar
£420

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A brilliantly executed and very endearing canine composition of a greyhound, painted in a naïve style in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

The sleek brown dog is depicted reclining elegantly on a flat green field, its elongated body and arched back capturing the breed’s natural poise and elegance. A bright yellow collar adds a touch of vibrancy, standing out against the dog’s smooth, earthy coat.

The background is simple and restrained: a pale grey sky with soft, stylized clouds and a few rounded green shrubs, which frame the composition without distracting from the central subject. The muted, balanced colour palette keeps the focus on the dog’s refined form.

This oil on board is housed in a wide profile dark wood frame. Both 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.

A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

This painting showcases Durling’s distinctive abstract vocabulary—tactile, spatially quiet, and emotionally charged through texture and colour. It feels like a visual diary entry composed of silences punctuated by vivid moments.

Durling introduces small blocks of intense, saturated colours including jet black, fiery orange, acidic yellow, and forest green, scattered throughout the pale background like thoughts breaking through quietude. Thick, painterly textures dominate the surface. The paint is almost sculpted, making the canvas a physical object as much as a visual one. This adds emotional depth—you sense that each mark carries intention and presence.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame again complements the painting beautifully—earthy and solid, grounding the delicate and expressive content within.

Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Lloyd is based in London and his practice is painting-based. His first international solo show was in 2010 at Golden in Chicago and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, Asia and the US. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Lloyd’s works are held in public and private collections worldwide, including the Whitworth Art Gallery and Museum, Progressive collection, America and Nomura Bank, Japan.

A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

This painting showcases Durling’s hallmark abstract language—minimal yet emotionally charged, textured yet airy. It’s a small piece that feels quiet but confident, introspective and balanced, like a private rhythm unfolding in colour and texture.

As with much of Durling’s work, the surface is highly textured, with thick layers of paint that create a tactile, almost geological quality. The canvas feels worked, scraped, and layered, like time embedded in paint.

The background is dominated by a soft minty green and pale pink base, giving the work a calm and gentle tone. Accents of bold black, vibrant orange-red, buttery yellow, and bright white interrupt the softness in bursts.

Despite its abstraction, this piece feels personal and evocative. There’s a delicate tension between order and spontaneity, between soft space and strong marks.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame is a perfect match for this kind of subtle abstraction. It provides a visual anchor without stealing any attention, and its rustic quality echoes the organic textures in the painting itself.

Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A small and visually impactful abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

This painting showcases Durling’s signature abstract style—textured, atmospheric, and intuitively composed. It feels like a landscape in dream fragments, full of soft mystery and emotional undercurrents.

Thick, expressive brushstrokes dominate the surface. The impasto technique (built-up paint) adds a tactile richness, inviting you not just to see the painting, but to almost feel it.

Muted creams, cool greys, and powdery blues provide a soft base, broken by bold accents—a vivid orange shape, a lemon yellow, and patches of deep forest green. These pops of color create visual rhythm, like beats in a calm but layered melody.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. The dark wooden frame adds earthiness and grounding to the otherwise ethereal composition. It contrasts beautifully with the soft light tones, allowing the painting’s subtle dynamism to stand out.

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.

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 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.

The painting captures the serene, meditative quality of a wide, open coastal scene. Soft brushstrokes and a muted palette of pale blues, greys, and sandy beiges evoke the stillness of a tidal flat or beach at low tide, where sea and sky blend almost imperceptibly on the horizon.

The composition is horizontal and spacious, with distant, darkened headlands framing the scene and guiding the viewer’s eye gently toward the center. The foreground is rendered in translucent layers, suggesting wet sand and shallow pools reflecting the soft light above. There is a sense of vastness and calm, where time seems suspended.

Overall, the painting conveys peaceful solitude and the quiet grandeur of nature, using minimal detail and harmonious tones to evoke a deeply contemplative atmosphere.

This painting is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

A beautifully framed large landscape composition, painted onto canvas by British artist Nicky Knill Jones.

This painting portrays a striking coastal view of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall.

Foreground rocks and textured brushstrokes evoke the movement and shimmer of tidal pools and wet sands, with tones of soft blue, white, and muted earth colors suggesting the meeting of land and sea. The composition’s subtle abstraction and cool palette give the piece an ethereal, dreamlike quality, conveying both the isolation and majesty of this iconic Cornish landmark.

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.

Executed in a restrained palette of muted greys, whites, and soft earthy outlines, the work embraces simplicity while highlighting form and design. The brushstrokes are confident yet textured, leaving slight variations on the surface that lend a tactile quality. The artist’s approach is both modern and whimsical, distilling everyday objects into symbols of quiet domesticity and charm.

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 acrylic surface carries a tactile richness, with subtle variations in tone and brushstroke adding depth to the otherwise minimal arrangement.

King Charles Spaniel
£400
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very endearing and engaging canine composition of a King Charles Spaniel, painted in a naïve style in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

The dog stands in a profile pose on a simple green hillside, with a muted grey sky and soft white clouds drifting overhead. Its long, silky coat is rendered in warm brown and creamy white, with carefully painted details in the fur that give it texture and character.

The spaniel wears a red collar with a gold buckle, adding a touch of brightness and personality to the composition. The dog’s wide, round eyes and symmetrical face create an endearing, almost human-like expression—both attentive and gentle.

This oil on board is housed in a dark brown frame. Both 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.

Terrier
£400

A very endearing canine composition of a terrier dog , painted in a naïve style in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

The dog is painted in warm cream tones with distinct chestnut-brown patches on its body and around one eye, giving it a lively and characterful appearance. A red collar with a gold buckle provides a bold, cheerful accent that contrasts beautifully against the more muted background.

The setting is minimal yet effective: rolling yellow hills stretch across the middle ground, while a soft grey sky looms above, dotted with stylised clouds and a small flock of black birds flying in formation. The ground beneath the terrier is painted in earthy browns, anchoring the composition.

The overall effect is whimsical yet dignified—the terrier looks alert and self-assured, embodying the loyalty and confidence of the breed. The restrained palette and simple forms give the painting a timeless charm, while the details—the curled tail, the steady gaze—imbue it with personality.

This oil on board is housed in a black painted wood frame. Both painting and frame are 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.

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)

Geometric Collage with 4 Circles
£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.

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.

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.

Abstract Plants
£320
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A small and visually impactful semi-abstract composition in oil, painted by British artist Lloyd Durling,

The surface is thick with textured impasto, giving the work a tactile, almost sculptural presence. The composition is divided into vivid colour blocks—warm corals, sunny yellows, soft aquas, and hints of mint—intersected by expressive black and blue marks that suggest organic forms.

Lloyd’s use of thick paint application invites a physical response—you can almost feel the surface just by looking at it. This rich texture adds depth and dynamism, engaging the senses beyond the visual.

The loosely defined forms gives us viewers just enough to begin imagining plants and stems without being literal. Its small size encourages close, personal viewing. It feels like a private experience—something to be studied and absorbed in a quiet moment. A perfect example of how small artworks can carry a big impact.

This impasto painting is mounted a dark stained oak frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Lloyd is based in London and his practice is painting-based. His first international solo show was in 2010 at Golden in Chicago and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, Asia and the US. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Lloyd’s works are held in public and private collections worldwide, including the Whitworth Art Gallery and Museum, Progressive collection, America and Nomura Bank, Japan.

Forest Bathing I
£400
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very engaging and beautifully presented contemporary abstract composition, painted on to canvas by British artist Frances Daws.

The Forest Bathing series captures the feeling of walking through a forest on a warm day – how the light bounces off the leaves and shadows dance on the forest floor. Luscious greens and soft yellows create a deep feeling of calm and are reminiscent of long walks and time spent sitting amongst the trees and ferns.

This small abstract painting, set within a deep white frame, presents a swirling interplay of earthy tones—olive green, beige, ochre, and hints of rusty red. The brushwork is expressive and gestural, forming a loosely circular or spiral pattern that seems to draw the viewer inward.

The layered, textured strokes give the surface a sense of depth and movement, while the overall palette evokes natural elements like moss, bark, and soil.

This piece conveys quiet energy and contemplative rhythm, inviting the viewer to pause and reflect within its modest scale.

The Forest Bathing series captures the feeling of walking through a forest on a warm day – how the light bounces off the leaves and shadows dance on the forest floor. Luscious greens and soft yellows create a deep feeling of calm and are reminiscent of long walks and time spent sitting amongst the trees and ferns.

This abstract painting, set within a minimalist white shadow frame, is a compact composition rich in earthy tones and gestural brushwork. Dominated by deep forest green, the canvas is energized by strokes of ochre, beige, and burnt orange, with the paint applied in sweeping, confident motions.

The brushstrokes vary in texture—some areas are smooth and blended, while others are more expressive and raw, revealing the artist’s hand.

The overall atmosphere is introspective and grounded, with a palette that evokes nature. This piece has a quietly compelling presence, inviting closer observation and personal interpretation.

Resting in Green
£620
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

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

The paintings in this series respond to the calming presence of the colour green. Frances consciously spends as much time as she can outside. She lives close to woodlands and fields, making it easy to be immersed within greenery. Resting in Green seeks to capture the varying shades of greens within a snapshot of plants and how the relationship of these colours can form interesting compositions.

This fluid, abstract composition immerses the viewer in a serene, verdant atmosphere. Dominated by various shades of green, interwoven with hints of olive, moss, turquoise, and muted ochre, the work evokes the sensation of being enveloped by nature.

Organic, curvilinear forms ripple across the canvas, overlapping and intertwining in a way that mimics the foliage that Frances is inspired by. She employs layered brushwork and soft transitions between tones, creating a gentle rhythm that guides the eye across the piece.

There’s a meditative stillness in the work, capturing the quiet energy of an abstracted garden. Despite its abstraction, the composition feels balanced and harmonious, with light and dark greens playing off each other in a soothing visual dialogue.

Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition. The artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

St Ives Head I (Very Large)
£1,400
Available

Free UK delivery only.

A very large and atmospheric abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

This abstract oil painting of St Ives Head conveys a powerful impression of the Cornish landscape through bold colour blocks and expressive brushwork. The composition is dominated by a strong horizontal division:

The lower portion features lush, vibrant greens, suggestive of the headland’s grassy terrain. These greens are layered and varied, with hints of dark shadows and occasional streaks of red and orange adding depth and movement. A sweeping form of deep black and charcoal arcs through the upper and middle sections, perhaps alluding to the rocky outcrop of St Ives Head or the moody Atlantic shadows. This shape anchors the piece and creates dramatic contrast. Surrounding these darker masses, icy blues and muted whites evoke the sky and sea, with the brushwork ranging from smooth to vigorously textured. Pops of pink and red in fine linear marks add visual interest and energetic tension across the central area.

The painting is both abstract and landscape-inspired, distilling the raw essence of the coastal headland into expressive colour fields and gestural marks. It reflects the elemental forces of land, sea, and weather typical of St Ives, rendered in a deeply personal, modernist style.

This very large oil on board is housed in a complementary light grey frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Coastal Path
£740
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very atmospheric and expressive landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

It is a dynamic, abstracted landscape that captures the essence of walking along a windswept shoreline trail. It blends expressive brushwork, shifting textures, and a vivid, elemental palette to evoke both the physical and emotional experience of the coastline.

Pink dashes and shapes dance across the centre, adding rhythm and possibly indicating human presence, wildflowers, or directional markers on a path. The brushwork is loose, textural, and emotionally charged, capturing fleeting impressions over literal depiction.]

Overall, the painting conveys solitude, discovery, and elemental energy. It’s less about representing a specific location and more about evoking the feeling of being immersed in nature—the wind on your face, the shifting weather, the wide horizon ahead. It celebrates the freedom and introspection of walking the edge between land and sea.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Enclosure
£890
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A large, rich and vivid abstract composition, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

This vivid abstract composition is defined by bold colour fields and energetic gesture, evoking the sensation of boundary, structure, and containment within nature or memory.

It is dominated by a large central mass of deep red, bordered by a sharp vertical white line on the left and a curved pale blue line sweeping across the middle. To the right, a vibrant orange block contrasts with cooler greens and earth tones in the lower and left portions. The composition is off-center and dynamic, with the eye pulled toward the intersection of curves and edges.

The brushstrokes are expressive and textural, with areas of scraped paint, blending, and layering giving a sense of physical depth.

The painting could allude to land boundaries, personal space, or emotional states—open to interpretation but rich in atmosphere. There’s a sense of tactile exploration and spatial ambiguity, making the piece both visceral and contemplative.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

Southern Shore
£740
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A very atmospheric and expressive abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto board by contemporary British artist Ian Mood.

It captures the emotional essence of a coastal environment rather than a literal depiction, using abstract forms and a painterly style to evoke the energy, complexity, and richness of the scene.

Earthy tones of red, brown, black, and orange dominate the central form, possibly alluding to rock formations, cliffs, or human structures. The bottom area is awash with cool greys, off-whites, and hints of gold, possibly representing a beach or tidal flat.

The atmosphere is introspective yet vigorous, echoing nature’s forces—wind, water, erosion—while remaining grounded in abstract expressionism.

The style is gestural and semi-abstract, reminiscent of mid-20th-century European modernism, where landscape becomes a conduit for emotional expression.

This oil on board is housed in a complementary white frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.
