Oil on board
Size: 19.3 x 21.1 inches (including frame)

An expressive and charming landscape painting, executed in oil onto board and dated 1982.

The artworks captures a peaceful rural scene with black-and-white cows grazing near a rustic wooden fence, set against a backdrop of colourful farmhouses, lush greenery, and vibrant trees.

The painting is executed in a naïve or folk-art style, characterised by bold, expressive brushstrokes and simplified, almost childlike forms. The artist has used a rich, lively colour palette, including deep greens for the grass and trees, warm earthy tones for the farmhouses, and a soft greyish sky that adds a subdued contrast. The trees burst with dabs of orange, red, and green, creating a striking focal point.

The brushstrokes are textured and expressive, lending a tactile quality to the composition, adding movement and a lively quality to the scene.


This oil on board is housed in a well-suited silver frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition. The frame has some very minor scuffing but is in good condition overall. See less
