    SOLD

    A unique abstract collograph by contemporary British artist Frances Daws, executed with carbon black oil on fabriano printmaking paper, and beautifully presented in a double card mount with blue detail, within a gilt frame.

    This collograph is described as such because the base of the plate is cardboard rather than metal. Frances would have started with a shiny surface, carving away to reveal the matt surface underneath. This is an intaglio method where the ink stays within the recess, once the plate is sealed and inked up it is then printed through a press; a heavy metal roller on a flat bed. The pressure transfers the print onto dampened paper. With this particular print Frances used papers and texture to add colour while the plate was printed in carbon black oil based ink on fabriano printmaking paper. She decided to only print this plate once which is why it’s a 1/1 , making it entirely unique.

    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.

  • Imbolc II

    Imbolc II

    Sold

    SOLD

    An engaging abstract composition by contemporary British artist Frances Daws, executed in acrylic onto canvas board and dated 2024.
    Part of the ‘Imbolc’ series, the painting has been created by responding to the colours of local landscapes through the seasons of the traditional Celtic Calendar.
    The early days of the year, treading muddy fields, grey lifeless skies. Warm pinks and soft yellow hiding in the midst of sepias, umbers and russets, this is the colour of Imbolc. A season of waiting, reflection, cosy jumpers, bitter cold puddles as big as ponds, impatience and planning.

    This acrylic on canvas board is framed within a ‘St Ives’ style white wooden frame to capture the complexity of the colours within. Both the painting and frame are in excellent condition. The artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

  • Clam

    Clam

    Sold

    SOLD

    A unique and captivating oil on canvas by contemporary Irish artist Jenny Belton.

    Featuring a clam shell on a round box under a spotlight, this painting by Belton is a comment on the rarity of wisdom. In Belton’s words, “The chances of finding a perfect round pearl in a clam are 100,000 to 1. Wisdom is as rare.” The clam shell here is closed so the question remains as to whether or not there is a pearl to be found within.

    Belton has a real knack for creating playful and experimental artworks, and this artwork and its irony is just brilliant. The painting has a ‘sister’ piece which depicts a pearl in a similar setting, which can be seen in the photos. Details of that painting are available to view here.

    The painting is unframed but can be hung as is. It is in very good condition.
