Strawberries - Small Original Still Life Oil Painting by Matthew Allton Oil

Small still life oil painting of three ripe strawberries. Painted using Daler Rowney Graduate oil paints on wood mounted plywood panel measuring 21 x 15 cms and varnished with Gamvar satin varnish. The painting is sold unframed, but a frame isn't necessary for display, as the plywood is mounted on a wooden frame that is approximately 1.5 cms deep and finished in white paint.

Celebrate nature’s quiet elegance with this original oil painting of three ripe strawberries, lovingly rendered in rich, expressive detail. Perfect for lovers of contemporary realism and handmade British art, this piece brings together vibrant colour, organic texture, and emotional clarity.

Painted on plywood panel mounted on a wooden frame, measuring 21 x 15 cm, this compact artwork showcases the artist’s mastery of composition and colour theory. The deep crimson tones of the fruit contrast beautifully against the black and white background, allowing the strawberries to take centre stage. Each berry is carefully layered with oil paint to create a subtle sheen, while the leafy tops offer a tactile counterpoint with their soft green energy.

Whether you're a collector of small original artworks or seeking a unique handmade gift, this oil painting delivers understated charm with lasting appeal. It comes unframed, ready to be displayed as is with the wooden frame painted white around the edges.
