PAUL Size: 58.5 x 53 cm (including frame) Oil on canvas A striking and expressive mid-century portrait painting, executed in oil onto canvas. The composition depicts a male figure in an eye-catching red and white patterned shirt, against a backdrop with a brown-colored section with red and black patterns. The colour palette is rich and vibrant, with a mix of warm hues of orange, red, blue, and green used to paint the figure’s head. The artist has skilfully blended these colours together, building up layers of paint to add texture and a three-dimensional quality to the painting. Bold and dynamic brushstrokes have been applied with energy, emphasising the expressive nature of the painting. This oil on canvas is housed in a complementary slim wood frame. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has very light scuffing, commensurate with age.
