Impasto Fish Still Life, 1961

Oil on Canvas
Dated 1961
26”x20.5”

Add a bold, tactile piece of history to your home with this exceptional 1961 oil on canvas. This isn't just a painting; it's a sculptural work of art. The subject, three fish captured in a striking vertical composition, is brought to life with incredibly thick impasto brushwork. The paint is applied so heavily that the scales and fins have a three-dimensional quality that literally rises off the canvas.

The color palette is a sophisticated mix of silvery blues, earthy ochres, and crisp whites, set against a deep, moody background that makes the "catch" pop. It perfectly balances mid-century grit with timeless nautical charm.
