  • Hillside Farmstead

    Hillside Farmstead

    Sold

    SOLD

    A mid-century modernist landscape captures a tranquil and vast scene, with rolling hills leading to a cluster of farm buildings nestled beneath an expansive sky, executed in oil onto board.

    A patchwork of green pastures, earthy fields, and tilled farmland stretches across the composition, punctuated by the warm terracotta and deep blue roofs of the distant barns.

    Executed in a bold, simplified style, the artist has reduced forms to broad, geometric planes, lending the piece a harmonious yet abstract quality. The palette is a muted blend of earthy browns, olive greens, browns and blues, with subtle lavender accents in the distant trees.

    The brushwork is confident and expressive, applied in broad, decisive strokes that capture the shapes and tonal shifts of the landscape without intricate detailing. This painterly approach lends the work a sense of immediacy and rhythm, evoking the fleeting impressions of a scene observed in shifting light.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary linen-lined frame with a gilded inner edge. There are some water marks visible along the left edge of the painting, as well as marks to the linen border of the frame, both consistent with age. Overall, the piece remains stable and displays beautifully.

  • King Charles Spaniel

    King Charles Spaniel

    £400

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very endearing and engaging canine composition of a King Charles Spaniel, painted in a naïve style in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    The dog stands in a profile pose on a simple green hillside, with a muted grey sky and soft white clouds drifting overhead. Its long, silky coat is rendered in warm brown and creamy white, with carefully painted details in the fur that give it texture and character.

    The spaniel wears a red collar with a gold buckle, adding a touch of brightness and personality to the composition. The dog’s wide, round eyes and symmetrical face create an endearing, almost human-like expression—both attentive and gentle.

    This oil on board is housed in a dark brown frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

    British artist Matt Rix spent his childhood in South Africa and now lives with his family on a small holding in rural North Wales. His paintings are uncomplicated, modernist representations influenced by primitive and naïve folk art from times past. Many of the subjects Rix paints are inspired by the animals he sees from day to day. Rix uses recycled materials including discarded paints, boards, frames and backing paper. Much of his work is therefore produced using waste materials resulting in sustainable paintings that evoke a time-worn, nostalgic essence.

  • Nordic Table Setting

    Nordic Table Setting

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A finely detailed 20th century large watercolour still life that captures a traditional Nordic feast laid out with precision and care, and dated 1918.

    At the centre of the composition is a generous cut of cured ham, its rich brown crust and creamy interior rendered with remarkable realism. Surrounding it are slices of rye crispbread, cold cuts, some cheese, and neatly folded napkins on delicate blue-and-white porcelain. A platter of fresh fruit  – apples, pears, and citrus – rises elegantly in a pedestal dish, while a curling sausage rests on a plate nearby. A floral arrangement in muted greens and browns adds an organic vertical balance to the arrangement, set against a soft teal curtain with an ornamental pattern.

    The style is naturalistic and quietly formal, with a focus on precision, order, and calm. The artist’s palette leans toward cool tones – icy blues, soft greys, and earthy greens – offset by warm browns and flesh tones in the food. The brushwork is delicate and controlled, with smooth washes and crisp lines characteristic of high mastery in watercolour technique.

    Textures are rendered with great sensitivity – from the porous bread to the glossy porcelain and leafy greens – imbuing the everyday subject matter with a sense of quiet reverence.

    This watercolour on paper  is housed in a complementary wood frame, and is glazed (there is a layer of glass between the frame and the painting to ensure its longevity). Both the painting and frame are in very good vintage condition.

  • Quiet Street Corner

    Quiet Street Corner

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An mid-century oil painting that captures a quiet street corner, where a row of low, yellow facades with shopfront windows are nestled beneath steep red-brown rooftops, executed in oil onto board and dated 1969.

    Behind them, tall apartment blocks rise in muted yellow and cream, their flat walls punctuated by chimneys and rooflines silhouetted against a pale blue sky. The streets are empty, save for a lone streetlamp and utility box, lending the scene a still, almost cinematic quality.

    The style blends modernist simplification with a touch of naïve precision, reducing architectural forms to bold, geometric planes while retaining enough detail to suggest texture and age. Colours are earthy and atmospheric -browns, and muted yellows dominate, contrasted by the cool grey of the street and the soft blue above. The brushwork is deliberate and smooth in the larger planes, while finer strokes animate the rooftops and wall textures, giving the surfaces a gently worn, lived-in feel.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary ridged gilt frame. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Terrier

    Terrier

    £400

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A very endearing canine composition of a terrier dog , painted in a naïve style in oil onto panel by British artist Matt Rix.

    The dog is painted in warm cream tones with distinct chestnut-brown patches on its body and around one eye, giving it a lively and characterful appearance. A red collar with a gold buckle provides a bold, cheerful accent that contrasts beautifully against the more muted background.

    The setting is minimal yet effective: rolling yellow hills stretch across the middle ground, while a soft grey sky looms above, dotted with stylised clouds and a small flock of black birds flying in formation. The ground beneath the terrier is painted in earthy browns, anchoring the composition.

    The overall effect is whimsical yet dignified—the terrier looks alert and self-assured, embodying the loyalty and confidence of the breed. The restrained palette and simple forms give the painting a timeless charm, while the details—the curled tail, the steady gaze—imbue it with personality.

    This oil on board is housed in a black painted wood frame. Both painting and frame are in excellent condition.

  • Vessels & Sculpture

    Vessels & Sculpture

    £425

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century still life that presents a striking composition of dark-toned vessels arranged upon a patterned textile, with a sculptural abstract form set against a deep plum backdrop, executed in oil onto canvas.

    At the forefront, a tall, slender vase and a rounded jug with a curving spout anchor the scene, their reflective surfaces rendered in moody blacks and greys. A geometric rug in red, blue, and white injects rhythm and contrast, its bold lines echoing the angular presence of the white sculptural form behind.

    Executed in oil, the painting reflects a restrained yet expressive mid-century sensibility. The palette is rich but muted – dominated by deep reds, greys, blacks, and earthy neutrals – balanced by the vibrant textile. The brushwork is confident, with layered textures that build form and volume while leaving visible the artist’s hand.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wide wood frame finished in tones of soft grey with brown accents along the edges. The painting displays some craquelure, though the paint layer remains stable overall. There is a very small area of paint loss to the upper half of the picture, as shown in the close up photo. The frame shows some scuffs consistent with age as well.

  • Harbour Reflections

    Harbour Reflections

    Sold

    SOLD.

    A mid-century modernist harbour scene that presents a distilled, geometric interpretation of a working waterfront, painted in oil onto board by the established Swedish artist Richard Björklund (1897–1974), whose works have been exhibited in public collections including the National Museum in Stockholm, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Malmo Museum, Ystads Art Museum, and others.

    The composition captures moored boats gently bobbing on still waters, their hulls reflected in soft, rippling forms. In the background, blocky silhouettes of sheds and warehouses line the quay, their shapes simplified into bold, flat planes of colour. 

    Executed in a modernist style, the painting embraces abstraction through its reduction of forms to essential shapes and tonal blocks. The scene is built from interlocking planes, lending a structural, almost architectural rhythm to the composition. The perspective is subtly flattened, creating a harmonious balance between representation and abstraction.

    The palette is harmonious and understated – muted blues, greys, and creams for the water and vessels, offset by ochres, olive greens, and warm brick reds in the buildings. Touches of mustard yellow and pale lilac add depth, evoking the diffused coastal light of a calm day.

    Confident and expressive brushstrokes define each block of colour, leaving a lightly textured surface and subtle interplay between adjoining tones.

    This oil on board is presented in a ridged gilt frame that complements the warm tones within the composition. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Hillside Path

    Hillside Path

    £575

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A soothing mid-century painting that presents a bold and simplified view of a vast landscape scene, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A winding path leads the viewer’s eye through green and golden fields toward a body of deep blue water, flanked by steep, rounded hills in earthy browns and muted purples. A dense green shrub anchors the foreground, providing contrast against the golden fields and the cool expanse of water beyond.

    The style is distinctly modernist, with flattened planes of colour and an emphasis on form over detail. The artist has reduced the landscape into strong, geometric shapes, capturing the essence of the scene with clarity and economy.

    The palette is rich yet subdued. Brushstrokes are broad, confident, and deliberate, applied in smooth layers that enhance the sense of structure and solidity in the composition. The result is a landscape that feels both stylised and timeless, evoking a sense of journey and distance within its simplified, harmonious design.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wooden frame with a warm brown finish that subtly echoes the earthy tones within the artwork. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some scuffs.

    £840

    Available

    Free UK Delivery Only.

    A playful and edgy one-off original monoprint presented in a sapele frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

    Unlike most printmaking, where artists create an edition of identical prints, a monoprint produces just one final piece. Olivia works on a plate — inking, painting, and layering textures — and then transfers the image onto paper. But because of the process, it can never be repeated in the same way again.

    This artworks is a two layered monoprint which creates new lines and curves through the simple layering. This allows each shape to emphasise its own individuality.

    Each work holds the spontaneity of the moment it was made — the way the ink spread, the pressure of the press, the marks left behind. No two are ever alike. When you own one of Olivia’s prints, you’re holding the only version that exists.

    Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

    This artwork, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations. The fixtures on the back of all the prints are on each side so that they can be hung in any direction, and the signature also has no intended direction.

    It is mounted and housed in a high quality sapele wood frame with anti reflective UV glass. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

    Size:  61 x 44 cm (including frame)

    A fun and edgy large one-off original monoprint presented in a coloured frame, by British artist Olivia Bouzyk.

    This monoprint is created from two individual stencils on different ghost print monoprint plates in two separate colours (a ghost print is when the plate has already gone through the press). Whilst the different layers are already in different shapes, there are additional dialogues between the different components because of the different shapes that appear within the main shapes as a result of the ghost print.

    Olivia works with contrasts in line, colour and form and a sense of harmony is achieved by balancing this series of juxtapositions.

    This print, as with the others, has no intended direction, so it can be hung to suit the viewer’s space/inclinations.

    This monoprint is housed in a vivid blue frame that further enhances the artwork within. It is protected behind a layer of perspex. Both frame and artwork are in excellent condition.

  • Still Life with Kettle

    Still Life with Kettle

    £475

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A elegant mid-century still life that captures a quiet, contemplative moment on a tabletop, executed in oil onto canvas.

    At its center is a dark olive-green kettle rendered with simplified, almost sculptural clarity, placed beside a softly outlined white ceramic vessel that recedes into a muted grey backdrop. In the foreground, a minimalist black stove ring adds a utilitarian contrast to the domestic serenity of the scene.

    The composition is stark yet harmonious, employing a restrained palette of white, grey, olive, and muted browns. Shadows are deliberately soft, lending a hazy atmosphere to the work. The artist has used flat, confident brushstrokes with little visible texture, reflecting the mid-century tendency toward formal simplicity and abstraction of form.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary champagne coloured frame. The painting is in very good vintage condition, and the frame shows a small amount of wear and tear to its corners.

  • The Distance Between

    The Distance Between

    £590

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene landscape painting that presents a solitary figure standing in a vast, open field, facing toward a distant white structure that rises against the horizon, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1991.

    The expansive sky occupies much of the canvas, shifting in gradient tones from pale cream near the horizon to soft blue above, evoking a sense of stillness and atmospheric depth.

    The composition is minimalist yet evocative, with bold horizontal divisions of land, horizon, and sky creating a structured balance. The dark green foreground contrasts with lighter bands of yellow and green, leading the viewer’s eye toward the central figure and the white building. The figure, rendered in simple but deliberate strokes of blue, introduces a quiet narrative of solitude, contemplation, or journey.

    The style is modernist and reductive, focusing on form and mood rather than intricate detail. Colours are clean and restrained – soft pastels in the sky, deep greens across the land, and a single bright accent of blue in the figure – lending the work a serene, contemplative atmosphere.

    Brushstrokes are broad and confident, with smooth transitions in the sky and more textural, layered application in the landscape. The painter’s hand is visible yet controlled, conveying both immediacy and calm.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary silver painted frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has small scuffs.

  • The Juggler

    The Juggler

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist figurative painting that presents a stylised performer rendered in bold geometric abstraction, executed in oil onto canvas.

    The figure, dressed in a vivid patchwork costume of interlocking chevrons and colour blocks, stands poised with one arm outstretched, balancing two circular forms in green and blue. A mask and beret add to the theatrical quality, suggesting the subject is a harlequin or juggler.

    The composition is divided into distinct planes of muted colours that heighten the sense of stage-like drama. The ground is dotted with playful red and purple marks, while a looping line hints at a hoop or prop, reinforcing the carnival atmosphere.

    Executed in flat planes of paint, the brushwork is smooth and deliberate, with clean, well-defined edges that emphasise the crisp geometry of the design. The palette juxtaposes earthy tones with bright primaries, creating visual rhythm and balance.

    This oil on board is housed in a very well suited wood frame finished in a muted silver-grey tone with subtle golden highlights along the inner edge. The painting is in very good vintage condition, with only a small area of paint loss to the gold leaf of the frame.

  • Market Day Under the Sun

    Market Day Under the Sun

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modernist oil painting that captures the quiet charm of a sunlit village square on market day, executed in oil onto board.

    In the foreground, a vendor stands beside a rustic wooden cart laden with fresh produce, partially shaded by a large parasol. Additional market stalls, some  green canopies, dot the square, their displays adding splashes of red, orange, and green to the scene. Figures move leisurely among the stalls, their forms simplified yet expressive, lending an almost timeless quality to the market’s atmosphere.

    The artist has used a modernist sensibility, with strong compositional contrasts between light and shadow. Sunlight spills across the cobblestones, casting deep angular shadows, while the muted facades of surrounding buildings form a subdued backdrop, allowing the market activity to take centre stage. The palette is warm and harmonious –  sandy orange, terracotta, soft greys, and earthy greens – with vibrant bursts of colour in the produce.

    Brushstrokes are confident and broad, with areas of flat, blended colour offset by more textured, visible strokes in the umbrellas and produce. The treatment is painterly –  focusing on shape, light, and atmosphere rather than fine detail.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary hessian-lined wood frame with an inner cream border. Both the painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

    £450

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An energetic mid-century composition that captures a serene autumnal landscape with a bold, expressive hand, executed in oil onto board.

    In the foreground, a textured grey-and-moss-green boulder anchors the scene beside the slender trunk of a tree, its bark rendered in rich browns and greens. Beyond, a sweep of pale golden grass opens into a stand of trees, their foliage glowing in autumnal shades, set against the deep forest green of distant conifers. The sky above is a tapestry of soft sage and buttery yellows, painted in horizontal strokes that evoke a gentle, crisp light.

    Executed in a post-impressionist style, the artist has used thick, confident brushstrokes laid in distinct, visible blocks of colour, giving the scene a rhythmic energy and tactile depth. The harmonious yet vibrant palette conveys both the warmth of early autumn and the cool undertones of the season’s approach.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary wide wooden frame with an inner linen border. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition.

  • Boats at Rest

    Boats at Rest

    £485

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A striking mid-century modernist painting that captures the quiet charm of a coastal scene, executed in oil onto board.

    Two boldly coloured boats – one in deep navy blue, the other in brick red – rest upon warm ochre sands, their strong silhouettes set against whitewashed houses with terracotta roofs. Behind them, rolling green hills meet a vivid band of cobalt sky, while the turquoise edge of the sea curves into view at the foreground.

    Executed with a modernist sensibility, the scene is reduced to simplified geometric forms and flat planes of rich colour, outlined in confident black strokes. The palette balances earthy warmth with refreshing coastal blues and greens, evoking both the heat of the sun and the coolness of the sea breeze. The smooth, uniform brushwork enhances the crisp, graphic quality of the composition, lending it a timeless feel.

    This oil on board is presented in a wooden frame with a linen inner border that beautifully complements the painting’s bold lines and coastal palette. Both the artwork and frame display some water marks and age-related spots, consistent with their vintage character. The frame also bears some scuffs and some scratches, most notably along the top right edge.

  • Crimson Barns at Dusk

    Crimson Barns at Dusk

    £445

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant expressionist mid-century landscape captures a rustic rural scene bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun, executed in oil onto board.

    A winding path leads the viewer’s eye into the composition, where clusters of red barns and a white farmhouse sit nestled among rolling green fields and deep blue hills. The horizon blazes with golden and amber tones, suggesting the fleeting light of early evening.

    Executed in a bold, expressionistic style, the artist has used thick, confident impasto brushstrokes, allowing the paint to stand proud from the surface and convey a palpable sense of texture and movement. Colours are rich and saturated – crimson, emerald, orange, violet, and cobalt – layered to create depth and contrast. The sweeping strokes in the sky and land give the work a sense of energy and immediacy, while the simplified forms evoke a nostalgic charm.

    This oil on board is housed in a complementary light wood frame with an inner linen-lining and gilt border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition.  The frame has some marks present but is in good condition overall.

  • Village Courtyard

    Village Courtyard

    £750

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century painting that captures the quiet charm of a rustic village scene, executed painted in oil onto canvas.

    A cluster of brown and cream houses with sloping, dark roofs are nestle into the landscape, their forms framed by a lush green hillside under a muted blue sky. In the courtyard, a lone figure in a deep blue dress stands near a building, while a line of laundry – vivid in red, blue, and white, sways gently between posts. A slender tree with textured, leafy strokes adds rhythm and movement to the composition, while a burst of orange flowers brightens the earthy tones.

    Executed in a modernist style, the work uses simplified, almost blocky architectural forms, contrasting with the more expressive handling of foliage and sky. The palette blends warm ochres, terracottas, and earthy browns with cool greens and blues, creating a balanced, atmospheric harmony. Brushstrokes are confident and varied – broad and textured for buildings and ground, more gestural and layered in the tree and sky –  giving the piece a tactile, painterly quality that evokes both structure and spontaneity.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame that has a warm, earthy golden-brown finish that complements the painting’s rustic palette. The painting is in good vintage condition. The frame has some light marks but is in good condition overall.

  • Green Apples & Golden Pears

    Green Apples & Golden Pears

    £435

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    An mid-century modernist still life captures a crisp arrangement of three green apples and two golden pears set against a cool-toned tabletop, executed oil oil onto board and dated 1957.

    The fruits are rendered with bold, simplified forms and flat planes of colour, each outlined with confident, dark contours that lend a graphic quality to the composition. The artist plays with angular shadows in deep violet and blue, creating a striking contrast against the pale lavender and white ground, while a touch of light blue along the left edge suggests a shift in surface or perspective.

    The palette is vivid and complementary: fresh, luscious greens for the apples, golden browns for the pears, and a cool spectrum of purples and blues in the shadows and background. Broad, visible brushstrokes add texture and vitality, with areas of paint applied in solid, unblended blocks to enhance the modernist aesthetic.

    This oil on board is housed in a classic wooden frame with a thin gilt inner edge and set within a wide, grey-coloured mount. The painting shows some very light craquelure to the bottom right, though the paint layer remains stable overall. There is a red mark visible on the left side of the inner frame as shown.

  • Still Waters, Quiet Shore

    Still Waters, Quiet Shore

    £515

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A mid-century modernist painting of a coastal scene that presents a serene moment along a quiet shoreline, executed painted in oil onto canvas.

    In the foreground, a solitary woman in a dark attire walks with measured steps, her white apron and pale yellow bundle offering a soft contrast to the muted ground. Beyond her, fishing boats are moored side-by-side, their clean lines and simplified forms rendered in flat tones of white, deep brown, and warm terracotta. A green container and stacks of pale coloured items add subtle colour accents, while the calm expanse of sea and pale blue sky create a tranquil backdrop.

    Executed in a distinctly modernist style, the painting favours simplified shapes, smooth surfaces, and flat planes of colour over fine detail. The palette is composed of soft greys, muted blues, sandy beiges, and earthy browns, punctuated by touches of yellow and sea green. Brushstrokes are controlled and even, creating clean edges that enhance the scene’s sense of clarity and order.

    The work captures not only the visual calm of a coastline but also the quiet rhythm of daily life by the sea, making it an elegant example of mid-century maritime modernism.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary linen lined frame with an silver window, which complements the painting beautifully and enhances its calming quality. The painting is in very good vintage condition. The frame has some minor scuffs but is in good vintage condition overall.

  • Through the Tunnel

    Through the Tunnel

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A vibrant and compelling mid-century modernist painting that immerses the viewer in the perspective of a train driver at work, executed in oil onto board.

    Rendered in bold, confident brushstrokes, this composition captures the dense array of gauges, levers, and dials that surround the central figure – an train driver in a cobalt-blue uniform – who gazes ahead toward a set of diverging tracks leading into a shadowy tunnel.

    The style is distinctly modernist, echoing the industrial fascination of the mid-20th century. The artist has used a semi-abstract approach, reducing forms into rhythmic blocks of colour and simplified shapes that emphasise geometry over realism. Rich earthy browns and blacks contrast sharply with vivid blues, reds, and whites, bringing energy and movement to the interior space.

    The brushwork is vigorous and expressive, lending texture and dynamism to both the machinery and the tunnel’s receding perspective. This painting celebrates the machinery of modern life while subtly meditating on the solitude and focus of the individual amidst the mechanical world.

    This oil on board  is housed in a complementary gilt frame with and inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some marks on its linen border as shown but is in good vintage condition otherwise.

  • Twilight Stream

    Twilight Stream

    £485

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A atmospheric composition that captures the quiet drama of a winter landscape yielding to the subtle warmth of dusk setting, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1987.

    This expressive scene depicts a partially frozen stream meandering through snow-covered banks, framed by dark, leafless trees and a softly glowing sky. The distant treeline is rendered in deep purples, blues and black, while the sky behind it glows with streaks of peach, rose, and apricot – suggesting the final light of day.

    The artist has used swift brushstrokes, especially in the forest and sky, that conveys movement and atmosphere. The snowbanks are painted with thick, angular swathes of white, grey, and pale pink, while the water is composed of smoother, horizontal strokes in blues and greys, lending a mirror-like stillness. The overall style merges impressionism with expressionist undertones, balancing realism with emotional depth.

    This oil on board  is presented in a complementary linen-lined wooden frame with a gilt inner edge. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has some marks on its linen border as well as some small scuffs.

    Size: 82 x 76 cm (including frame)

    Tide’s Return

    £565

    Available

    Free UK Shipping Only.

    A large expressive and atmospheric mid-century modernist coastal landscape, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1968.

    This evocative oil painting captures a trio of boats beached on a windswept shore. Three figures stand nearby, anchoring the scene with a quiet human presence. The ocean churns with silvery greys, whites, and muted blues, reflecting the turbulent energy of an overcast day by the sea.

    The artist has used broad, confident brushstrokes and a subdued, tonal palette dominated by stormy greys, whites, and earthy ochres. The water is rendered with rhythmic horizontal strokes, while the sky and sand are textured with layered impasto, imbuing the painting with a tactile, atmospheric quality. The composition speaks to the raw beauty of nature and the enduring relationship between humans and the sea.

    This oil on canvas  is housed in a complementary linen lined frame with an inner gilt border. There are some age spots present on the frame as well as along the upper edge of the painting. There is a mark on the left side of outer linen border of the frame.

  • Golden Hour Fields

    Golden Hour Fields

    £585

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A charming and beautifully textured mid-century landscape painting that captures a tranquil rural scene rendered in a distinctly modernist style, and executed in oil onto board.

    At the heart of the composition lies a small red barn, nestled among tall trees that punctuate the gentle, undulating terrain. A ribbon of pale grey road leads the viewer’s eye diagonally through the canvas, bisecting fields of green and ochre that suggest cultivated land in late summer.

    The artist has used broad, expressive brushstrokes and a subtly geometric structure to the forms – typical of the mid-century approach to simplifying nature into bold planes and rhythmic patterns. The colour palette is rich but muted, with earthy greens, clay reds, greys, and soft sky blues evoking a nostalgic calm. Layers of thick impasto and visible directional strokes bring energy and movement to the otherwise serene countryside, giving the painting a textured, almost sculptural surface.

    This work is a beautiful testament to the artist’s ability to distil a landscape into its essential forms, while still conveying warmth, place, and time.

    This oil on board is housed in a unique gilt frame with a red inner border which complements the painting very well. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has minor scuffs.

    Size: 44 x 51.5 cm (including frame)

  • By Candlelight

    By Candlelight

    £415

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A poignant mid-century still life composition that evokes solitude and reflection, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1977.

    The painting presents a tall, elegant candlestick with a melting white candle beside a thick, well-worn book. A dark ribbon bookmark drapes softly over the book’s cover. The composition is set against a deep red background and a muted olive-grey surface, creating a rich contrast that draws the viewer into the stillness of the scene.

    Executed in a restrained style, the artist has used minimal detailing and flat spatial planes, allowing texture and form to take precedence. The brushstrokes are deliberate and slightly coarse, especially in the candle’s flickering flame and the textured surface of the book’s pages, lending the piece a tactile quality. The muted, earthy palette enhances the painting’s meditative tone.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary wood frame with an inner gilded border. The painting has two small areas of paint loss as shown in the close ups. The frame is in good condition.

    Size: 34.5 x 44.5 cm (including frame)

  • By the Waterbank

    By the Waterbank

    £495

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A large and atmospheric mid-century landscape that presents a tranquil riverside scene with a subtle narrative undertone, executed in oil onto canvas and dated 1952.

    Two figures rest on the grassy bank of a still canal, their gazes drawn toward a moored boat and a drawbridge in the distance. The composition is balanced by low farm buildings on the left and the soft sprawl of countryside under a cool, clouded sky.

    Executed in a loose, expressive style, the brushwork is thick and confident, capturing texture and movement, especially in the turbulent sky and reflective water. The palette is dominated by muted tones: steely blues, sage greens, earthy browns, and soft greys, evoking a moody, contemplative atmosphere. The overall effect is quietly cinematic  – a fleeting moment of stillness rendered with emotional restraint and painterly clarity.

    This large oil on canvas is housed in a complementary ridged gilt frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has scuffs.

  • Geometric Collage in Burnt Umber

    Geometric Collage in Burnt Umber

    Sold

    SOLD

    A very unique original artwork by British artist Dave Boyd, constructed from discarded books (repurposed cloth covers, papers, cardboard, binding boards) mounted on a wooden panel in a solid wood float frame.

    The grid consists of six distinct blocks in a mix of blues, white, and earthy red, contrasting against the warm, burnt umber or rust-coloured background. The grid arrangement is asymmetrical, giving the piece a sense of modernist abstraction while maintaining an organic, handmade feel.

    The artwork is presented in wood frame that suits it very well. It has been constructed with professional grade adhesive and is shipped with robust fixings, ready to hang, Both artwork and frame are in excellent condition.

    Dave’s artistic practice focuses on the juxtaposition between the manmade and the natural and the human experience of geometric forms, surfaces and materials. Paintings and collages often embody a built or constructed aesthetic and are strongly influenced by architecture and the built environment, with the aim of suggesting visual encounters with structures and landscapes. Utilising and repurposing materials,  with a focus on minimal composition, surface and colour, Dave’s work seek to utilise the subtle marks inherent in objects that have been used and handled over many years.

  • Whispers of Winter

    Whispers of Winter

    £455

    Available

    Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

    A serene mid-century semi-abstract landscape painting, executed in oil onto canvas.

    A snow-covered countryside is rendered with serene restraint. A distant village emerges from the soft whites and ochres of the fields, its clustered rooftops and warm-toned structures punctuating the pale horizon. Subtle hints of rust, terracotta, and charcoal create visual rhythm among the buildings and trees, while the sky is quietly layered in muted lilac and blue.

    The composition is minimalist yet evocative, with gestural brushstrokes that suggest rather than define form. The artist has used a refined palette of soft creams, icy blues, and mellow earth tones to conjure the essence of a winter scene without becoming literal. The loose brushwork and atmospheric perspective evoke a feeling of quietude and stillness. The overall impression is one of contemplative calm, where memory and landscape dissolve into one.

    This oil on canvas is housed in a beautiful dark grey wood frame with an inner linen border. The painting has some areas of craquelure present, but the paint layer is very stable overall. The frame has minor scuffs at its inner section but is in very good condition overall.
