'blue soul' - vintage mid century abstract framed oil painting

This stunning mid century abstract in oil is not only a celebration of colour, but an excellent example of how simplicity can be magnetic. With an under layer of tiffany blue and an over layer of ultra marine, the artist has used the richness and luminosity of these shades of blue to draw us in. The painting invites us to pay rigorous attention to colour, as our eyes soak up its richness. Reminiscent of the iconic colour field paintings of mark rothko, its saturated colour glows meditatively and asks for our complete absorption. This oil on board is housed in a complementary wood frame which enhances its mid century feel. Both painting and frame are in excellent vintage condition. Size: 57 x65 cm (including frame) Oil on board.
