Ken Moroney Paintings

British, b. 1949

Ken Moroney was born on February 14, 1949, in South London. Of Anglo-Irish parentage, he showed early artistic talent. His Irish father, finding it unmanly, encouraged him to box. As a result, Moroney took up boxing and won a gold medal for South London in his teens. However, this did not distract him from art, and once his boxing hobby came to an end, the paints continued to show his flair. Self-taught, his impressionistic style, with bold use of color, has found widespread favor. Moroney’s main medium is oil, and he favored the romantic subjects of Edwardian times. His works now hang in many important collections.

20th Century Oil painting, a View of Chinese Junks at sea.

By Ken Moroney

Located in Woodbury, CT

20th Century Oil painting of an Impressionist scene of Chinese Junks at sea. Moroney was born on the 14th of February 1949 in South London. Of Anglo Irish parentage, his father was typical of his generation and worried about Ken’s artistic temperament which he viewed as effeminate. As a result, Ken took up boxing and won a gold medal for South London in his teens. His art continued to flourish with his trademark striking use of color. His main medium oils and he favors romantic subjects of Edwardian times. Ken has traveled extensively and spent 2 years working for major galleries in New York. The Royal Academy nominated him in 1976 as being one of the few promising young artists to emerge this century: "Ken Moroney has considerable talent, any painting purchased now can only be seen as a sound long term investment." Ken Moroney's work now hangs in many important collections and has had paintings exhibited at The Royal Academy (London), and the Kline Galleries (Canada). The painting came from a private collection and previously came from Duncan Miller...

Nymph Adorning a Bust in a Garden, Signed Nude Painting

By Albert Cresswell

Located in Genève, GE

Signed "Cresswell" in the lower right corner. This evocative oil painting presents a poetic, symbolist-inspired scene of a nude female figure, likely a nymph, gently adorning a sculpted bust with flowers in a secluded garden setting. The composition unfolds in a softly lit, atmospheric space, where warm, earthy tones and delicate transitions of light create a sense of intimacy and reverie. The artist employs a fluid, painterly technique, allowing forms to emerge through subtle gradations rather than sharp definition. The figure’s elongated silhouette and graceful posture recall the classical tradition, while the blurred contours and tonal harmonies align with late 19th-century aesthetic sensibilities. The presence of sculptural elements and floral offerings suggests allegorical undertones, possibly referencing themes of beauty, transience, and devotion. Stylistically, the work sits at the intersection of Academic painting and Symbolism, with a strong affinity for the intimism and softness associated with artists influenced by Impressionism. The muted palette, combined with expressive brushwork, enhances the dreamlike quality of the scene. Both refined and sensual, this painting would appeal to collectors of Symbolist art, fin-de-siècle painting, and classical-inspired figurative works. symbolist painting, nymph painting, nude female figure oil painting, allegorical art, classical nude painting...
