Olives

SOLD

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.

Size: 22.5 x 43.5 cm (including frame)
