Oil on canvas of mid-century–style figurative paintings, rich in mood, texture, and emotional presence. Executed in a dark, atmospheric palette of deep greens, charcoal, ochre, and muted teal, these works feature expressive, gestural brushwork with layered paint and visible texture throughout. One painting depicts a contemplative figure on horseback, rendered with loose, confident strokes that suggest motion and introspection. The companion piece portrays a solitary standing figure holding a child or doll, evoking a quiet, poignant narrative. Together, the set feels deeply human and evocative, with a slightly abstracted, expressionist sensibility. Both works are signed and dated ’69, and are presented in striking, hand-carved dark wood frames that enhance their sculptural quality and vintage character. The larger is 13"W x 16"H by 1"D. Canvas itself is 10.5"W x 13.5"H. The smaller is 11"W x 14"H by 1"D. Canvas itself is 8.5"W x 11.75"H. The frame is 1.25"W.
