Abstract Fishermen

Sold

SOLD

A very well executed semi-abstract mid century modernist oil composition, painted onto canvas.

In this composition we see myriad of shapes and forms that come together seamlessly like a puzzle. What appears to be a scene of fishermen has been distributed across the canvas in a fragmented and abstracted way. There are figurative elements that we are able to identify, including two human figures as well as fish and water. But the artist has chosen to combine these elements in a cubist like manner, reducing everything to geometric outlines and shapes in different colours. The artist shows different viewpoints simultaneously, emphasising the flatness of the canvas, instead of creating the illusion of depth.

The colour palette is deep and rich, but is largely minimal, concentrating mainly on subdued tones of blue, grey, brown and green, with subtle hints of yellow and pink. The brushstrokes are visible, creating texture within the piece.

The oil on canvas is housed in an original mid century frame with has a linen border and painted grey edges. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor signs of wear but is in very good condition overall.

Sold

SOLD

A brilliantly executed contemporary still life composition in oil, painted onto canvas and presented in a white floater frame that suits it impeccably.

This painting is a still life with a minimalist, introspective mood, characterized by simplicity and muted tones, reminiscent of the still lifes of Modernist painter Giorgio Morandi.

A tall, dark glass bottle is centrally placed, with its subtle translucence hinting at texture. Three pears, varying in size and positioned around the bottle, add organic shapes to the otherwise geometric scene. The objects rest on a ledge or tabletop, which extends diagonally and leads the viewer’s eye toward the back of the space.

The setting is framed by a window or plain wall, with soft natural light illuminating the objects. The background is painted in light blue and grey tones, contrasting with the darker colours of the objects.

The painting is made up of a subdued colour palette of earthy greens, browns, blues, and greys. The lighting emphasizes subtle gradations in tone, enhancing the quiet and reflective atmosphere.

The brushwork is smooth and controlled, giving the painting a serene, balanced feeling. The style is reminiscent of classical still-life traditions but simplified for a modern aesthetic.

This work conveys a contemplative atmosphere, focusing on the interplay of light, shadow, and space.

Gertrude

Sold

SOLD

A striking German mid century modernist portrait composition, painted in oil onto board.

This painting is a powerful, emotionally resonant portrait that balances graphic boldness with subtle introspection.

The angular lines and structured background give the composition a sense of rhythm and movement.

This oil on board is set in a frame with a slight bevel, which complements the boldness of the artwork without overpowering it. There is a small area of paint loss to the lower left corner but the painting is otherwise in very good condition. The frame has some minor wear, commensurate with age,

Windswept

Sold

SOLD

A large and brilliantly executed mid century modernist abstract composition, painted in oil onto canvas.

This painting captures the fluidity and energy of a coastal scene through bold brushwork and a harmonious colour palette. Its semi-abstract approach makes it open to interpretation, but the sense of movement, the presence of sails, and the interplay of water and land evoke a windswept, maritime atmosphere.

The scene may depict a harbour, a rocky coastline, or a windswept landscape, but its abstract nature allows for varied interpretations.

A Snake in the Grass

Sold

SOLD

A fun and edgy one-off original digitally manipulated monoprint sandwiched between a custom perspex frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

This is a digital monoprint (only one exists, it is original and one-of-a-kind) of a scanned in monoprint, which was digitally edited and manipulated. Through the digital editing process Olivia is able to have greater control over the specific colours and textures, emphasising the textural quality of the ink, increasing the scale and saturating the colours, creating a more dynamic dialogue between the lines, forms and colours.

The light qualities of the perspex frame (a frosted green back panel and a tinted clear yellow front) work with the colours within the piece, making the image seem different in every lighting condition. The coloured perspex frames reflect the playful approach Olivia takes when creating each piece. Everything she does is completely unique and different every time.

This composition explores juxtapositions, both formally and conceptually, between two different environments – the urban city and the rural countryside. The straight and angled lines allude to the urban cityscape, while the curved and more organic forms are remiscnent of the rolling countryside. Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

This digitally manipulated monoprint is presented within two layers of coloured perspex that are part of the artistic process. The perspex frames are custom made to accompany the print that is in them – the colours of the front and back panels are chosen to compliment and work with the colours in the print. Spilt batons are on the reverse so it is easily attachable to the wall and they are positioned in all four directions on the reverse, so that you can choose the direction it is hung. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.
