Original artwork description:

A powerful, large original oil painting by British artist Kirsty Wain. This expressive piece captures an ancient olive tree, boldly rendered in a beautiful haze of deep indigo, cerulean, and violet tones. The unusual, vibrant palette transforms the familiar subject into something ethereal and deeply personal.
The thick, textured paint and dramatic, swirling brushwork emphasize the tree's strength and vitality, reflecting the artist’s unique approach to landscape. Rooted in Post-Impressionism and inspired by the bold freedom of Fauvism, Wain uses liberated colour to evoke the profound, serene energy of the Mediterranean landscape, where she is currently based. The composition balances abstraction with representation, focusing on the sensory memory of the place rather than a photographic likeness.
Wain’s work, particularly her striking olive tree compositions, is held in private collections worldwide and has been featured in exhibitions. This canvas, a substantial size at 73 cm×92 cm, delivers maximum visual impact. Representing a strong investment in a recognized contemporary artist, its luminous colour and poetic depth make it a truly magnificent statement piece.

The canvas is professionally mounted on a wooden stretcher frame and arrives ready to hang. The sale does not include an outer decorative frame. Buyers may hang the piece as is or take it to a framer at their discretion. Signed on the front by the artist.
