Frederick Joseph Yates (25 July 1922 – 7 July 2008).

He was an English artist. Inspired by the Manchester painter L. S. Lowry.

Yates set out to paint pictures about the lives of ordinary people: " ... It is the man in the street that I'm after, whom I feel closest to, with whom I want to make friends and enter into confidence and connivance, and he is the one I want to please and enchant by means of my work". Despite his reclusive nature, his paintings combined sharp observations of people going about their daily lives with strong, impressionist colours and expressive brushwork.

His paintings are included in many private and public collections including Brighton and Hove Art Gallery, Liverpool University, the University of Warwick, Torquay Art Gallery and Russell Coates Gallery Bournemouth.

Delivery within the Uk is included in the asking price.

FAQs

Expressionist oil painting prioritises emotional experience and subjective response over physical reality, often using thick impasto brushwork and vivid colour palettes to capture the essence of a subject.

Traditional oil paintings are created using pigment suspended in drying oils, such as linseed oil, applied to stretched canvas or wooden boards, and housed in hand-finished wooden frames.

Authentication involves examining signature styles, canvas aging, stretcher frame construction, pigment oxidation, and provenance records or exhibition labels on the reverse.

An expressive landscape painting serves as a strong focal point and can be balanced in a contemporary space by pairing it with neutral walls, minimalist furnishings, and directional picture lighting.

Oil paintings require stable indoor humidity levels, avoidance of direct sunlight to prevent pigment fading, and occasional gentle dusting with a soft, dry brush by professionals.
