  • Abstract Coast Trail

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking and very confidently executed mid-century abstract coastal landscape composition in oil, painted onto canvas.

    The painting presents a scenic and vibrant hiking trail along a coast. Abstract in nature, all realistic details have been intentionally left out, as the artist has chosen instead to focus on colour and brushstroke, as the scene has been deconstructed and simplified down to blocks of contrasting shades.

    The artist has worked boldly in his medium of oil, confidently applying layers of rich colours in broad, gestural, and expressive brushstrokes that capture the energy and immediacy of his hand. These contrasting shades not only add a wonderfully textured surface and a sense of depth to the painting, but the muted hues imbue the work with an uplifting and soothing quality.

  • Early Morning

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A brilliantly executed mid century modernist seascape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1966.

    This calming, early morning scene of a fisherman out on his boat just exudes tranquillity. There is a gentle, delicate quality to the way the artist has applied his paint, with each stroke carefully done , some as short light strokes, some as little dots, and some as longer and drawn out. Through the composition we get the sense that the artist is trying to capture the atmosphere of morning at low tide, with the rocks peeking out above the water. His palette is subdued – light greys, whites and blues make up the majority of the painting.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a lovely wooden frame with linen border that suits it very well.  There is some very light craquelure to the upper right, but the paint layer remains very stable. There is some minor scuffing to the frame, and an area of age toning to the lower edge of the linen border. However the overall appearance is very good.

    Depicting a winter scene, the canvas is dominated by white grounds, representing a vast expense of freshly fallen snow with some traces of greenery and a body of water showing in the background. The winter landscape is hushed and still, evoking a sense of calm and peacefulness.  To the right of the painting, a pop of colour catches the eye – a red tank or shed stands out and acts as a focal point, with its bold hue creating a striking contrast against the white backdrop.

  • Coastal Path

    SOLD.

    An atmospheric and restful coastal landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1967.

    The artist skilfully captures the essence of a tranquil coastal scene with a touch of human presence, intertwining elements of nature and civilisation.

    The foreground of the painting presents a pathway that runs through the undulating landscape terrain, inviting the viewer to explore further. The pathway guides the eye towards a row of houses nestled towards the back of the painting. As our gaze travels further into the background, a magnificent view of a vast coast emerges.

    The artist has used muted colours throughout the composition, and the colours gradually darken from the foreground, enhancing the illusion of depth and width. Lighter earthy shades dominate the foreground, with soft browns and greens evoking the natural beauty of the landscape, and as we move towards the coast a dark navy blue tone has been used to capture the sea.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a well suited gilt frame with linen inner border.  The painting is in excellent vintage condition. To the lower right corner of the frame, the linen has shrunk slightly over time, but this doesn’t detract from its overall appearance.

  • Landscape Glow

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A picturesque mid-century oil painting, that presents a panoramic landscape view of a river stream flowing through rolling hills.

    Semi-abstract in nature, the artist has deconstructed this natural scene down into planes of contrasting colours, which demonstrates a sense of depth to the painting.

    The colour palette used in the artwork is intentionally limited, consisting mainly of deep rich shades of green, blue, and orange.  The gentle sweeping brushstrokes and subdued hues contribute to the composition’s delicate atmosphere, invoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder.

    Another distinctive feature of the artwork is the unique use of a striking orange outline that surrounds the various forms present in the scene. This bold choice serves to emphasise the shapes and contours of the landscape elements, while simultaneously infusing them with a luminous radiance.

  • Transient

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A restful and alluring mid-century modernist abstract landscape composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Well-balanced in composition, the bottom half of the painting unveils a vast expanse of open green fields and in the distance, a hazy view of a dark green forest emerges. In the top half of the painting, a blue sky with delicate clouds fills the canvas.

    Executed in an abstract manner, all realistic details have been omitted and the artist has skilfully reconstructed and simplified the scene down to planes of contrasting colours and expressive brushstrokes. The use of loose and painterly brushwork breathes life into the landscape, evoking emotions of freedom and spontaneity, and wonderfully capturing the transient atmospheric conditions in that moment in time.

  • Autumn Trail

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A very long and narrow lively mid century mountain landscape, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition depicts a scenic and panoramic view of a cool blue lake being surrounded by mountains behind it. In the foreground, some trees with striking autumn-coloured leaves line a trail. 

    Leaning towards fauvism and also painted in a semi-abstract manner, the painting emphasises vibrant and rich colours as well as energetic and unrestrained brushstrokes. Although a very much subjective and emotional response to the landscape, it wonderfully captures the beauty of nature.

    Its long horizonal layout would make it the perfect piece for an above-the-bed hang.

  • Black & Blue

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A deep and soulful abstract composition rendered in oil. Swathes of colour in varying forms tease our imagination – do we see something recognisable? Angled forms peek out in different directions, reminiscent of the silhouette of an almost undiscernible city skyline at night time. For others perhaps the composition is a reminder of jazz music – with its careful balance of spirit, freedom and form.

  • Portside

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A striking and very well executed mid century semi abstract composition, painted in oil onto board.

    We can just about make out what appears to be a view of a port – in the foreground we see the form of a docked boat, with several cargo containers in the background. However the artist has worked under a largely modernist ethos, abstracting the scene down to several block of colour, using the contrasting tones to create depth within the picture. The painting has a beautiful texture too – each brushstroke distinct and perceptible.

    This oil on board is housed in a beautiful gilt frame with a linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some wear in keeping with its age, and the linen border as some light age toning.

  • Rooftops

    Sold

    SOLD.

    Free UK shipping.

    A large mid century oil on canvas, painted in a distinctly modernist style. The artist has painted a broad, panoramic view of the rooftops of a coastal town, with the view of the sea in the distance. Flat planes of colour in broad and distinct brushstrokes have been juxtaposed one next to the other, creating a sense of space and depth within the picture, leading our eyes from the foreground (the roofs) to the background (the sea). This has also created a geometric effect which gives the painting an element of abstraction.

    The painting is housed in its original mid century frame, which has a very wide profile. The inner section has been lined with a grey fabric. Both painting and frame are in good vintage condition.

    Size: 67 x 77 cm  (including frame)

    Sold

    SOLD.

    An intricately detailed mid century oil composition, painted onto canvas.

A row of farmhouses lay dotted along the horizon, giving the painting a wonderful sense of depth. As we move our eyes back toward the foreground of the painting, we notice the way the artist has painted the field, using his brush to delicately dab and stroke the canvas, portraying the tonal differences in the grass, without actually painting in any individual blades, showing off the artist’s technique and mastery with capturing the landscape with impressionistic quality.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame with silver detail and linen lined border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    A brilliantly executed abstract oil composition that captures the essence of a serene coastal landscape with a minimalist approach.

    The artwork portrays a figure on the left side of the composition, situated amidst a clifftop landscape of green and brown terrain, and with a visible coastline in the background.  Executed in an abstract manner, the artist has skillfully reduced and simplified these elements down to planes of contrasting colours that add depth to the composition.

    SOLD.

    A soothing and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style townscape, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition depicts a town in Italy, featuring trees set amidst blocks of buildings.

    Drawing on a distinctly modernist ethos, the artist has masterfully reduced the composition down to blocks and planes of contrasting colour, and explores the use of colour and brushstrokes to create a sense of depth and space in this painting.

    The use of a gentle and muted colour palette adds an uplifting quality, and another striking aspect of this painting is the artist’s creative use of negative space. By leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the forms of the building and trees are accentuated, drawing our attention to their distinct forms.

    Characterised by a rich colouring and textured brushwork, this still life composition depicts a vase of lilac tulips on a dark wood table.

  • The Golfers

    The composition of the painting draws our attention to three figures holding golf bags, set amidst a sprawling golf course with lush greenery. The artist’s deliberate omission of detailed features encourages viewers to focus on the overall atmospheric ambiance as opposed to their individual characteristics.

    Painted in a semi-abstract style, there is a strong focus on expressive and textured brushstrokes, as well as rich colours. The use of painterly and dynamic brushstrokes create a sense of energy and movement throughout the painting, and the clever use of a limited colour palette dominated by various shades of greens and browns helps to unify the composition and emphasise the beauty and lushness of the natural surroundings.
