    Cherry Blossoms

    Sold

    SOLD

    A delicately composed mid-century still life painting that features a slender arrangement of cherry blossom branches set in a terracotta-toned vase, executed in oil onto canvas.

  • The Artist's Worktop

    The Artist’s Worktop

    Sold

    SOLD

    A very well executed mid century modernist still life composition, painted in oil on board.

    This painting is a still life composition featuring an arrangement of bottles, jars, and vessels on a tabletop. It is probably an artist’s table , as we can see used paint brushes and palette knives in the bottles.  Rendered in a loose, painterly style, it captures the textures and forms of everyday objects with expressive brushwork and a subdued yet rich colour palette.

    The colour palette is primarily earthy tones—browns, muted greens, and soft blues—contrasted against a neutral grey-beige background. The light source is subtle, creating soft highlights and shadows, giving volume and depth to the bottles. The strokes are confident and expressive, emphasising form over detail, typical of a modern impressionist or post-impressionist approach.

    The atmosphere is calm and introspective, inviting viewers to appreciate the beauty in simple, overlooked objects. The painting carries a sense of quiet domesticity and artistic reflection, possibly referencing the workspace of a painter or craftsperson.

    This oil on board is presented in a beautiful hessian lined frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    Sold

    A small yet impactful contemporary Cornish still life painting, executed in oil onto panel and dated 2012.

    The composition presents  a bowl of pears, and a colourful bottle thoughtfully arranged on a white rectangular tabletop.

    Sold

    SOLD

    A vibrant and striking still life composition, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The composition features an assortment of objects whose silhouettes are defined by black outlines, placed across a green surface. A wine bottle stands tall in between 2 white pitchers.
