About the Item

Title: 1960's British Surrealist Oil Painting - "Ghosts of Frosted Flowers" Medium: Oil on board, unframed Size: 4.5 height x 4 width Condition: Good Provenance: all the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artists estate Description: "Ghosts of Frosted Flowers" is a captivating and intricate abstract piece, depicting spectral blossoms imbued with ethereal charm. The artist's palette features vibrant yet cool tones of lavender, blush pink, and icy blue, layered atop a richly textured, almost dreamlike surface. Outlined in deep black with intricate white stippling and thread-like veins, the flowers appear frozen in time, evoking the fragility of nature under frost. The contrasting background offers starry celestial swirls rendered in deep navy and turquoise, interspersed with soft, glowing accents. The playful intertwining of dark lines and light dappled effects suggests both movement and stillness, as though the viewer is peering into a twilight garden coated in morning frost. This striking and atmospheric painting is a poignant blend of natural beauty and surreal abstraction. A perfect addition for collectors who appreciate mid-century art and pieces that inspire wonder and contemplation. We have been offering similar works from this collection for years, appreciating the artist’s talent for capturing emotion through abstraction. We have several similar size works offered for sale here. In this wonderful size format, they offer tremendous interior design capabilities, perhaps being grouped in sets of 2, 4, 8, or even 12!
