  • Nature’s Abstraction

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A wonderfully executed minimalist abstract landscape composition, painted in oil onto canvas and dated 2012.

    Although abstract in nature, the painting appears to depict a loosely defined nature setting, with elements suggesting trees, foliage, and perhaps a pathway.

    All realistic details have been omitted, and the artist prioritises mood and atmosphere and she presents an abstract interpretation of nature.

    The palette consists of soft, muted tones, including whites, pale pinks, creams, and yellows, contrasted by darker blacks and greens. These colours suggest tranquility and balance, reinforcing the serene mood of the painting.

    The brushwork is loose and varied, with areas of thicker application and visible texture contrasting with smoother, more blended sections. The expressive, gestural strokes create movement and depth, while the layering of paint adds a tactile quality.

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

    Size: 30.5 x 30.5 cm (including frame)

  • Olives

    £315

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A small but impactful mid century modernist abstract composition, painted in oil onto canvas and framed behind glass.

    This painting is an abstract composition with a focus on texture and earthy tones, dominated by dark brown and black tones with hints of green and olive. A patch of light beige appears on the right side, creating contrast and breaking up the darker hues.

    The central area features overlapping layers of dark paint, applied with visible, expressive brushstrokes. Two circular green forms are visible, possibly resembling abstracted fruit nestled within the darker layers.

    The paint is thickly applied in some areas, emphasizing movement and adding depth through the use of bold, gestural strokes. The textured surface suggests an exploration of form and materiality.

    The piece conveys a sense of mystery and organic forms, with an emphasis on tactile qualities and abstraction. It evokes natural elements like soil or bark, blending a moody color scheme with a contemplative, textured aesthetic.

    The painting is surrounded by a cream card mount within a simple light wood frame, which complements the earthy tones of the artwork. It is framed behind glass. Both frame and painting are in good vintage condition.

    Available

    A fun and playful contemporary modernist style painting on wood, dated 2023.

Further to this, the wooden panels are a combination of 2 separate two pieces that have been  fitted together, adding a constructed sculptural element to the artwork.

    Painted with emulsion and varnished, the panels are presented in a tray frame, appearing to ‘float’ within, giving the painting its modern feel. The painted panels and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Figures in Motion

    £525

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A brilliantly executed abstract figurative oil composition painted 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.

    Small yet impactful in its composition, the painting features a group of figures rendered in a simplified and indistinct manner, suggesting movement or interaction in a serene, almost dreamlike environment.

    Abstract in nature, the figures are obscured, and their forms are perceptible only through carefully applied brushstrokes and contrasting colours which hint at their structure.

    The muted palette is dominated by soft tones of beige, cream, and light blue, accented by darker shades of black. These colours create a harmonious and calming composition while adding a sense of warmth and nostalgia.

    The brushstrokes are textured and expressive, applied with a sense of spontaneity and emotion.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary gilt frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very minor scuffs.

  • Geometric Fun

    £380

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very unique original abstract artwork, made up of paper that has painted, embroidered and then stitched together.

    The paper has been stitched to create a three dimensional form that is mounted onto board and protected behind glass. The paper has been painted with an abstract composition using acrylic paint, and each alternating strip has been painted with different colours. As a result, the artwork changes depending on the angle from which it is viewed. If viewed from the right, we see a geometric patterning of red, black and yellow. When viewed from the left, a series of angled lines criss-cross across the lighter coloured surface. Although it is technically a static piece, we have in fact a very dynamic artwork that changes constantly. The paper itself has also been embroidered with an intricate pattern which gives it textured detail, visible when viewed closely.

    The artwork is presented in a black frame and protected behind glass. It is in very good condition. Ready to hang.

    £420

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very appealing and restful contemporary abstract composition, painted in acrylic onto birch panel.

    The painting is characterised by a very soft and gentle palette of greens, whites and the softest pinks. There is a sense of organic rhythm through this very well balanced painting.

The pinks in the painting reveal slowly as one takes the time to look at and take in the painting.

    The painting is housed in a very complementary natural wood tray frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Into the Wild

    £300

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A unique abstract monotype by contemporary British artist Frances Daws, dated 2022 and beautifully presented in a white card mount and framed behind glass.

    Into the wild is a monotype which creates a sense of a stormy sea, using chine-collé against the black ink.

This process has given the monotype great depth and texture.

  • La Plage

    £420

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A modernist style abstract composition painted in acrylic onto canvas board, by French born artist Nils Jean.

Nils combines these shapes to form a very harmonious composition. Bold colours of black, blue and sandy brown are set against a lighter grey-blue background.

    Working in acrylic on canvas, Jean’s strong use of colour and pattern are influenced by his time  studying fashion at Studio Berçot in Paris and subsequently working as a womenswear designer, prior to moving to London to focus on the arts. French born, Nils Jean currently lives on the South coast of the United Kingdom.

  • At the Water’s Edge

    Sold

    SOLD

    A small but very impactful mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas board.

    With a distinct focus on form and colour, the artist presents two figures by a tree, painted in a semi abstract manner. There is a wonderful play of angles, line and shapes, creating different planes of colour that combine really well. The figures appear to be sitting on a river bank, with one figure looking out towards the water. The artist has contrasted the richer, earthier colours of green, brown and dark blue, against the lighter blue of the background which alludes to the water or sky.

    The oil on canvas board is presented in a gilt frame that suits it very well. There is a light crease line on the canvas that has been laid to the board but this is does not detract from the overall appearance.

  • Untitled

    Sold

    SOLD

    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.

  • Fleeting Essence

    Sold

    SOLD.

  • Blue Waters

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but very impactful abstract modernist oil composition, painted onto board.

    Although very much abstract, the painting is reminiscent of the qualities of water – its flowing nature, its sparkling and dappled reflections, and even its undercurrents. This interpretation is of course subjective but at its very essence, the composition captures a feeling of motion, transience and dynamism. The artist juxtaposes broad sweeping brushwork with much more controlled and defined dots of paint. The palette of colours interplay wonderfully with each other, encouraging our eyes to move in different directions and explore different areas of the composition.

    This oil on board is housed in a very attractive wood frame with an inner linen lined border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Set of 4 Oils

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A small but powerful set of abstract compositions by British 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 small yet very impactful mixed media composition with abstract qualities.

    Painted in a semi-abstract manner and with a strong focus on colour and brushwork, we can perhaps make out what appears to be three figures crossing a bridge over a body of water.

    Although the artist has worked with a restrained colour palette, the intense use of blue that takes up the centre of the painting is the most prominent colour that commands our attention.

    Long sweeping brushstrokes have been rhythmically executed, and overall the painting is very well balanced and evokes a very satisfying sense of calm.

    This is a mixed media on board, consisting pastel, gouache, watercolour and oil. Both the painting and frame are both in very good vintage condition. The painting is housed behind glass.

    Size: 33 x 27 cm (including frame)

    A small but powerful abstract composition by British artist Lloyd Durling, painted in oil 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.

    Size: 20 x 15 cm (including frame)
