Still Life with Cat Figurine

A charming mid-century modernist style interior still life painting rendered in soft, abstracted geometry,  and executed in oil onto board.

The composition features a tabletop arrangement with a flower in a vase, a covered bowl, a few bottles, and a pale blue cat figurine that adds a whimsical note to the scene. The artist has captured a quiet moment of domestic life through simplification and balance – transforming everyday objects into forms of colour and shape.

The palette is harmonious and cool-toned, dominated by shades of blue, teal, and brown, offset by the warmth of brown and a single crimson bloom. These muted yet carefully balanced hues create a sense of a calm interior.

Painted in a distinctly modernist idiom, the artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and flattened planes, giving the work tonal depth. The brushwork is visible and deliberate, lending vibrancy to the otherwise tranquil composition.

This oil on board is presented in a beautiful frame with a linen mount and a wooden outer border in brown and gold tones. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
