Welcome to OilColourStudio.
This shop is a collection of original oil paintings, created slowly and thoughtfully in my studio. Each piece is hand-painted using traditional oil techniques, with an emphasis on colour, texture, and atmosphere.
My work is inspired by nature, wildlife, and the places we feel drawn to - from birds perched in quiet moments, to coastal scenes, city harbours, and patterned backgrounds that add a decorative rhythm to a space.
Every artwork you see here is an original, not a print or reproduction. Many pieces are painted on cradled wood panels or stretched canvas, ready to hang and enjoy straight away.
I believe original art brings warmth and individuality to a home. These paintings are made to be lived with - to add character, calm, and a sense of connection to the wall they hang on.
Thank you for supporting original art and independent studios.

I'm so smitten with this painting. It reminds me of my British Shorthair Lili who I lost when she was 3. Funny enough, my cat now, Baji, is a Burmese. Just a little bit of synchronicity I noticed. Thanks for creating this little piece of purrrfection. <3

This is a painting, not a giclee or print. One can see the texture of the paint. No glazing. A wonderful price with the frame.

This is an absolutely gorgeous painting. I love it. The colours are even more striking in real like. It reminds me of a beach I use to play at when I was young and now I have a lasting painting of it. The painting is exactly as described and arrived in good time fully protected. Thank you Jan 😊

This painting is beautiful..full of texture and rich color. I went to Hampton Beach as a child and this copies the feel as well as the look of that area. I will be visiting this artist again
