Blue Flowers on Purple Table 1900-1999 British Modernist Oil Painting

Blue Flowers, Purple Table by Helen Greenfield (British 1900-1999) oil painting on board, unframed board: 20 x 14 inches condition: overall very good provenance: all the paintings we have by this artist have come from their studio sale in England The brushstrokes are visible and expressive, creating texture and movement. The application of paint appears thick and layered, giving a sense of depth and dynamism. The use of bold, vibrant colors such as blues, purples, pinks, and reds creates a lively and energetic feel. The artist seems to prioritize color over realistic representation, focusing on the emotional impact of the scene. Rather than detailed shading, the artist uses contrasting colors to imply light and shadow, giving the painting a more abstract and spontaneous feel. The composition is somewhat abstract, with an emphasis on the interplay of colors and shapes rather than precise details. This gives the painting a more modern and expressive character. Helen was a member of the Leicester Sketch Club, Treasurer of Leicester Society of Artists and a founder member of The Friday Group who were an all-female group of artists.
