A striking still life painting from 1996, that captures a sprig of vibrant red rowan berries arranged in a deep cobalt blue vase, executed in oil onto canvas.

The clusters of berries, set against elongated yellow-green leaves, extend gracefully beyond the vase, with one branch resting gently on the white tabletop. The background, rendered in a soft blue, provides a serene contrast to the lively bursts of red and gold.

Executed in an expressive, modern style, the artist has used visible, confident brushstrokes that create texture and a sense of vitality throughout the composition. This still life radiates a sense of warmth and optimism, as the vivid red clusters burst with life against the calm, cool backdrop.

This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame with a soft whitewash finish. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

An elegant mid-century still life composition that presents a pared-back arrangement of a single green pear alongside a white pitcher, executed in oil onto canvas.

The painting is striking in its simplicity, emphasising the quiet relationship between form, line, and negative space.

Painted in a restrained modernist style, the artist has used clean, confident brushstrokes and a limited palette of muted greys, soft blues, and creamy whites, punctuated by the fresh, vivid green of the pear. The play of shadow and light across the tabletop introduces subtle tonal variations, while the black accents on the pitcher handle and base lend contrast and visual rhythm.

The brushwork is deliberate yet unfussy – broad, smooth strokes for background and surface planes, and more defined, darker lines for the outlines and details. The result is a composition that feels at once minimal and contemplative.

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

An energetic mid-century still life painting that depicts a bold arrangement of everyday objects rendered with expressive confidence, executed in oil onto board.

At the center stands a tall black pitcher with a sweeping handle, its form accentuated by patches of turquoise, white, and yellow that lend vibrancy and depth. In the foreground, two deep red onions and a bulb of garlic anchor the composition, their rounded shapes contrasting with the pitcher’s angular silhouette.

The artist has used a highly textured technique, layering thick strokes of oil paint that leave visible ridges across the surface. The palette is restrained yet powerful, dominated by black, grey, and white, with strategic bursts of colour to enliven the scene. The brushwork is vigorous and gestural, giving the objects a tactile, almost sculptural presence while retaining a sense of spontaneity and abstraction.

This oil on board is presented in a complementary silver painted wood frame with an inner linen border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.
