His powerful representations bring an insight into the calm and vastness of the great legacy of the Dutch masters of the Fens.  I will upload some of these paintings - at highly discounted prices - before the end of February.  Please email me if you want to beat the crowd and can't wait that long.

Here is one image, Stubble Burning at night,   Stubble burning I think may be banned now either completely or near major roads because of the hazard caused by thick smoke drifting across the road.

Cove, by Helen Mould £650      oil on Stretched Linen, 5 cm depth box canvas. 50 x 35 cm

This was painted after a trip to Eyemouth on the Scottish Borders. The painting was on exhibition at the Great Northern Hotel in Peterborough from 2005 - 2008. Such a beautiful setting for the small harbour but it could only be reached by walking through a tunnel cut into the rocks. Very spooky.

Helen Mould's studio artist's open studio event.

some of my abstract and figurative paintings. 

 

      here is a close

up of 1/2 of the one panel of featured diptych in studio view. One can see the texture

more easily than on the postcard, but to appreciate it one needs to see it.

There is a lot of play with texture and flatness going on with the surface.

There is renewed interest in original contemporary oil painting and abstract acrylic paintings after a slump in the market for around two years.

Luke Harris reports for The Art Newspaper that: "... there has been a resurgence in the Indian art market. The prices reached for paintings are far above any being asked at Peterborough Art House Limited but the report from Mumbai details the autumn auction at Saffronart on 9-10 September and gave focus to a cautious resurgence in the Indian art market. The ... online auction sold 77% of 95 lots, with 34 passing high estimate. Nine of the top ten lots were by post-war Progressive Group artists, with the highest price of $391,000 bid for an untitled landscape diptych by Akbar Padamsee from 1995, comfortably past its upper estimate of $350,000. Close behind, F.N. Souza’s Old City Landscape, painted in 1957 when the artist was in Paris, made $379,500 (est $300,000-$500,000).

I was interested to read that " ... the only contemporary work to make the top ten was an untitled 2006 kitchenware painting by Subodh Gupta, which sold for $209,875 (est $175,000-$225,000), a telling contrast to the $1.5m that a similar work made last summer.

According to Saffronart director Minal Vazirani, the auction showed consolidation in a market looking for equilibrium, with around 60% domestic buyers and notable new interest coming from South East Asia." Is the resurgence fueled by landscape and figuartive work and moved slowly away from abstract and abstract expressionists favoured recently. I recent visit to an auction in Cornwall it was suggested there is a growing body of interest in landscape, particularly English watercolours. Will this be? A cynic might think it could be the auction house drumming up business for an as yet un-announced English Water colour painting promotion.
