SOLD.
An emotive mid-century figurative composition, executed in gouache.
The artwork’s focal point is a female figure dressed in a yellow dress, positioned on the left side of the painting. The choice of this striking yellow dress immediately captures the viewer’s attention, as it stands out prominently against the subdued and muted colour palette that dominates the composition. The artist has deliberately depicted the figure without any discernible facial features, encouraging viewers to focus on her form, her graceful posture, and the emotions conveyed through her body language.
The figure is standing beside a piano with an open book, and a plant sitting on it. Rendered in darker muted shades of brown, green and black with the use of smooth brushstrokes, this adds to the overall sense of nostalgia and vintage charm of the painting.
This gouache on card is housed in a complementary gilt and black frame. There are areas of craquelure present to the figure’s yellow dress, but the paint layer appears to be stable and is protected behind glass. The frame has losses and wear but this is in keeping with its vintage look.

SOLD.
An enigmatic mid-century semi-abstract figurative oil painting, that masterfully contrasts light and dark elements.
In a mysterious, dark black room rendered with swift and expressive brushstrokes that serves as the backdrop, a figure punctuating the center of the composition is the focal point. The dark room has a dimly lit ambiance, and we can spot a dark brown chair and table.
The female figure emerges from the darkness in stark contrast. With her gaze directed downward and seemingly engaged in an activity, her form has been reduced into blocks of contrasting colours painted in light colours, creating a powerful visual juxtaposition against the surroundings. The artist has deliberately omitted realistic details, opting instead for bold outlines that define the contours of her figure, resulting in an almost abstract representation.
This oil on board is housed in complementary wood frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

SOLD.
A brilliantly executed abstract oil composition, painted onto board and dated ’96.
The composition features meandering outlines in black that intertwine and intersect, creating pockets that the artist has filled with rich, vivid colours. Each individual shape is therefore completely unique and distinct, while still very much part of a whole. Each shape has a role in the total organism, each one is holding the other up, supporting the whole. As a result the picture has a palpable energy – the forms and shapes almost appear to be moving around the canvas, shapeshifting and amalgamating. There is also an element of the optical effects of light and colour, almost reminiscent of stained glass.
This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs including a small nick on the bottom which can be seen in the close up photos.

A brilliantly executed modernist still like composition, painted in oil onto canvas.
In this scene we see a pair of fruit, a pair of white mugs, and a blue sugar pot. The artist has incorporated a loose and porous like effect to the medium by thinning down the oil paint, creating a watercolour like effect. Significant attention has been paid to the application of colour, from blending and layering to looser flicks and dabs. This myriad of application techniques creates a textural effect and allows the different layers to remain visible. There is a softness to the palette – the objects are set against a pale pink background which contrasts beautifully with the greenish blue of the upper edge of the painting.
This oil on canvas is housed in a lovely wood frame in a distressed style with an inner white border that pairs wonderfully with the painting. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

A brilliantly executed mid century modernist composition in oil, painted onto canvas.
In this scene we see a group of fishermen around their boats by the docks.
