Delightful Oil Miniature on Board

Joyful oil mini on canvas board, signed and titled verso indistinctly, capturing a gentle, nostalgic rural scene.

A woman in a long blue dress stands on a sunlit path, her back turned, gazing toward a white cottage framed by tall trees and a vibrant summer garden. The cottage features warm ochre roofs, a brick chimney, and shuttered windows, likely early 20th Century. A white picket fence runs across the mid-ground, separating the path from a lush abundance of flowers—hollyhocks, irises, and yellow blooms rendered in loose, expressive strokes.

The artist uses bright, saturated greens and soft sky blues to create a warm, idyllic atmosphere. The brushwork is textured and impressionistic, especially in the foliage and flowers, while the architecture and the figure are handled with slightly more precision. Charming, peaceful and nostalgic!
