Grounded Figure

Sold

SOLD

A striking example of mid century abstract expressionism, composed with a powerful arrangement of dark, geometric blocks layered over a pale, neutral background. It evokes a sense of architectural form and emotional depth, blending both structure and mood.

The painting is built from overlapping angular shapes, creating a central form that resembles a figure. There is a dominant vertical element that draws the eye upward, almost like a shadowy figure in motion.

The shoreline curves gently into view, rendered in warm sandy yellows and soft greens that lend the scene a welcoming, idyllic quality.

Containing elements of fauvism and expressionism, this striking painting is characterised by its rich colours and playful repetition of marks and a mosaic-like scattering of forms across the sky and sea. The artist has used bold, looping linework and patchwork colour fields to create a sense of movement – waves ripple in textured dashes of white, coral, and blue, while the sky hums with pink and powder-blue strokes interspersed with touches of gold.

The palette is delightfully energetic: fresh greens, sky blues, pastel pinks, bright whites, and vivid reds work in harmony to create a composition that feels both spontaneous and carefully orchestrated. Brushstrokes are short, layered, and expressive, giving the surface a highly tactile quality and echoing the lively energy of the natural world reimagined through a mid-century modern lens.

A charming and dynamic coastal view that radiates warmth, optimism, and artistic personality.

This oil on canvas is presented in a complementary gilt frame with deep ridges and a slim black inner border which provides a wonderful contrast. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Birch Grove

Sold

SOLD

A gentle and serene mid-century landscape that depicts a quiet stand of slender trees rising gracefully from a soft, sunlit meadow, executed in oil onto board and dated 1948.

Their pale trunks stretch upward with an airy elegance, forming delicate vertical rhythms against a hazy sky. Behind them, gentle mounds of foliage in muted greens create a sense of depth and calm, while the distant horizon rests in a band of cool blue.

Rendered in a distinctly mid-century modernist style, the composition favours simplification and harmony over strict naturalism. The artist reduces the scene into calming shapes and soft colour blocks, capturing the essence of place through atmosphere rather than detail.

The colour palette is beautifully restrained: powdery sky blues, cool greys, sage greens, and warm straw-toned yellows. Together, they evoke the soft light of a quiet morning. The brushstrokes are tactile and expressive yet controlled, with gently layered textures that bring a subtle movement to the surface. Short, broken strokes define the grasses, while smoother, blended passages build the trees and sky, lending the piece a breezy, contemplative quality.

This oil on board is housed in an elegant linen-lined wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

Geometric Pathway

Sold

SOLD

A bold and striking mid-century abstract landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 1958.

The painting presents an interpretation of trees and a pathway, set against a backdrop of sky and fields. Containing elements of cubism as well as geometric abstraction, this landscape scene has been skilfully deconstructed and reduced into angular and geometric shapes, as well as bold lines.

The colour palette is restrained – with earthy shades of greens contrasting with cool tones of blues.

The brushstrokes are deliberate and flat, emphasising form and shape, and allowing the viewer’s eye to focus on the interplay of colour and geometry.

This oil on canvas is housed in a well-suited light blue painted wood frame. The painting has very small areas of paint loss on its left side as shown in the photos, but this is only noticeable upon close inspection. The frame has some general scuffing as shown in the close ups.

Size: 64 x 81 cm (including frame)

Pastoral Geometry

Sold

SOLD

A serene mid-century modernist landscape that captures a cluster of farmhouses nestled within a stylised patchwork of verdant fields, executed in oil onto canvas.

The composition evokes the stillness of the countryside, with a rhythmic interplay between architectural form and geometric land divisions. Rendered in a cool, muted palette of sage, grey and hints of dark brown, the scene exudes a meditative calm.

The artist’s brushwork is confident yet restrained – large flat planes and subtle tonal shifts create a softly abstracted effect, lending the landscape an almost dreamlike quality. The sky is rendered in pale washes, while the layered fields below suggest distance and depth through carefully constructed blocks of colour.

This oil on canvas is housed in a stunning frame with multiple profiles. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has very some scuffing, but this is in keeping with its vintage style.

Size: 51 x 91 cm (including frame)
