‘This ground I’ve walked, I’ve walked before. I know it’s oddities, it’s dangling limbs, It’s buried roots, it’s ancient trees. Oak, elder, pine, we are all friends. I breathe it’s forests, eyes closed, hands open. I soak in it’s seas and run down it’s hills. It’s rooted within me, a lived history within every new step. I know this ground, I’ve walked it before.’

Painted on stretched canvas and with its edges painted in soft yellow, it is beautifully presented in a white tray frame. The painting and the frame are in excellent condition. It comes with a certificate of authenticity and signature on the reverse.

Frances Daws is a British Artist working in the Southwest of England. Primarily a painter she also works within printmaking.

Under the Trees

Sold

SOLD

A large mid century modernist abstract figurative composition, painted in oil onto canvas by the established Swedish female artist Brita Hansson (1918-1979).

Nude in Colour

Sold

SOLD

A brilliantly executed, large and characterful mid-century abstract nude figurative portrait composition, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1964.

The painting presents a seated female figure, rendered in expressive brushstrokes. Abstract in nature, the figure has been skilfully deconstructed into blocks of contrasting pastel shades, evoking a harmonious yet fragmented human form. Set against a backdrop of deep blues and greens with hints of earthy browns, the figure contrasts vividly with the surrounding darker tones.

By leaving areas of the canvas exposed, the artist’s creative use of negative space accentuates the form of the figure. drawing our attention to her distinct presence.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
