An arresting and vibrant contemporary still life by British artist Kirsty Wain. Titled "Study of Chinese Vessels," this striking composition showcases a collection of ornate blue-and-white porcelain-style vessels juxtaposed against a bold, energetic pink backdrop and overflowing with lush, dynamic greens and deep blues.
Executed in Wain’s signature loose, expressionistic style, the painting embraces gestural brushwork and an unapologetic, saturated color palette. The heavy-duty paper surface gives the acrylic medium a rich, tactile presence, capturing the spontaneous energy and expressive momentum of the artist's mark-making.
The painting is signed by the artist on the front (Wain 26) and is in pristine condition, ready for framing. A wonderful piece for collectors of contemporary expressionist art and vibrant still-life interiors.

Please note: Any images showing the artwork framed are mock-ups for illustration purposes.

About the Artist
Kirsty Wain is a British painter currently living and working in Spain. Deeply connected to the Mediterranean landscape, her work offers an expressive, emotive interpretation of the surrounding environment. Drawing strong inspiration from Post-Impressionism and the bold colour theory of Fauvism, Wain uses vibrant hues, textured application, and fluid line work to capture the intrinsic energy, spirit, and light of a location. Her paintings, frequently focused on ancient olive groves, hillside pines, and sweeping terrains—seek to translate fleeting personal moments and deep emotional ties to place directly onto the canvas.

Wain’s distinct visual language continues to gain international visibility, and her paintings are held in private collections around the world.

´ I love colour. I love nature. I love art. Together, they are my language. ´ K Wain 2025
