  • The Apple

    £550

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small and very pleasant modernist style still life oil composition dated 1969, and painted by the established Swedish artist Ture Fabiansson (1910-1994), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, The Museum of Art in Gothenburg, Jönköping Museum, Borås Art Museum, and many others.

    A luscious apple punctuates the center of the composition, set against a soothing backdrop blue and green shades.

    The apple and its surroundings have been rendered with a combination of expressive and loose brushstrokes, and have been skillfully reduced to blocks of contrasting colours. This colour contrast wonderfully captures the soft curves of the apple and demonstrates a sense of depth and dimensionality to the paining.  The overall muted colour palette imbues the work with a soothing quality.

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

  • Untitled

    £335

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    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.

    Size: 32 x 37 cm (including frame)

  • Spanish Walks

    £760

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An outstanding semi-abstract oil composition, painted in 1958 by the established Swedish artist Ivar Morsing (1919-2009), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Kalmar Museum, and Jönköping Museum.

    The composition presents 3 figures strolling through a town in Córdoba in Spain. Containing elements of abstraction, the artist has deliberately omitted realistic details, and has skilfully deconstructed the scene and figures down to blocks of contrasting colour.

    The use of short and expressive brushstrokes creates a sense of energy throughout the painting as well as a light textural quality. The dominant use of rich brown and cream shades in various intensities create a warm and earthy atmosphere, and the variation in contrasting tones help to create depth and three-dimensionality.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary black frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs but this does not detract from the overall appearance.

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene and atmospheric mid-century semi-abstract composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A body of water fills the foreground of the painting, serving as a mirror as it reflects the fragmented, impressionistic forms of the city and indistinct figures along its edge. The water’s surface is painted with loose, sweeping brushstrokes, creating a sense of movement and fluidity.

    In the middle ground, two indistinct figures traverse towards a bridge. In the background, the cityscape and foliage fill the canvas, their forms abstracted and simplified down into geometric shapes and overlapping forms.

    A wonderfully expressive and brilliantly executed figurative composition in mixed media (oil, watercolour gouache), painted onto board.

    Two women in black headscarves are the focus of the scene, with very captivating expressions. The woman on the right appears to look almost shocked, with her mouth ajar and her eyes widened. The woman on the left stares directly at us, her emotion less identifiable. The scene is intriguing, making us question what these women have heard or what has happened. Their faces have been painted with brilliant detail, capturing the shadows on their faces as well as the aged skin of the woman on the right. These two women are set against a blue-ish green backdrop, making their faces stand out even more from within their black head scarves.

  • Set of 4 Oils

    £1,100

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but powerful set of abstract compositions by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted with oil onto linen panel. Each one signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to these paintings are an intense engagement with oil stick and graphite on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    All paintings and frames in excellent condition. Each one of these is a one-off unique hand painted piece, so the set of 4 will be available until any one of the pieces is purchased individually. If you prefer to buy an individual piece, you can do so here.

    Lloyd Durling is a British artist working in London. His practice is painting-based and he has exhibited widely throughout Europe, U.S.A and Asia. In 2017 he was awarded a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant. Works are held in both public and private collections worldwide.

    A lovely and endearing miniature oil on canvas depicting a scene of a pedestrian walkway on a fine summer’s day.

    A woman in the foreground can be seen walking with her 2 children to drop them off at school. They are holding flowers in their hands, that they’ve picked along their journey.

    Rich and saturated colours fill this energetic painting; and the short and textured brushstrokes imbue the work with a sense of liveliness and joy.

    What’s special too is that the artist has uniquely enhanced the greenery portion by adding graphite detailing in a ‘scribbled’ manner, adding a sense of three-dimensionality to the trees.

    The painting is housed in a white card mount, and a green stained wood frame with a blue and gold inner wood border. The colours of the frame pick up on the colours within the painting beautifully, making it stand out even more. The work is glazed (there is a layer of plexiglass between the frame and the painting) to ensure its longevity.

  • Conjuring Blue

    £300

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil onto linen panel. Signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to this painting is an intense engagement with oil on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    The idea of topography is of central importance and is explored through continuing walking projects. These serve as opportunities to gather diverse source material through physical and emotional interactions with whichever environment chosen to traverse. It amounts to a kind of urban and rural wandering where the information gathered is reinterpreted or reimagined feeding into a deep connection with landscape, arrangements of ancient monuments, light, shadow and forgotten histories – all of these elements find a way into the work.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Pillar and Moth

    £300

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British contemporary artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil onto linen panel. Signed, titled and dated on reverse.

    Central to this painting is an intense engagement with oil on linen that explore the interface between painting, drawing and collage. There is a balance between expressive play and tight control and with this comes an expanse of associations that push beyond simple categorisations of abstraction or scale. The information in each painting, given by gesture or mark, is reduced to a fleeting register on the surface, as if each mark has to count. 

    The idea of topography is of central importance and is explored through continuing walking projects. These serve as opportunities to gather diverse source material through physical and emotional interactions with whichever environment chosen to traverse. It amounts to a kind of urban and rural wandering where the information gathered is reinterpreted or reimagined feeding into a deep connection with landscape, arrangements of ancient monuments, light, shadow and forgotten histories – all of these elements find a way into the work.

    Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Balcony Garden

    £420

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A richly textured and charming mid-century painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    Small yet impactful in its composition, the composition presents a lively and scenic view of a balcony window, surrounded by a lush garden of vibrant flowers in bloom.

    There is an explosion of colours on the canvas – with bold and rich hues imbuing the painting with liveliness. The artist has also skillfully applied thick and textured brushstrokes – using the impasto technique to create a visually tactile and expressive surface, resulting in a three-dimensional quality.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a deep and ridged gilt frame with an inner white border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Size: 32 x 26 cm (including frame)
