60s paintings: pop art still life, hard edge, California pool

Paintings in the look of sixties art, for a wall or as a subject to paint from: a pop art still life of soup bowls and a lemon in flat primaries with halftone dots; a hard-edge painting of crisp tangerine, cobalt and lime bands; and a sunny California scene of a turquoise pool and tall palms. Each is flat acrylic, thick oil or thin stained acrylic. Type a different subject or twist and the styles carry it.

Frequently asked questions

What are the three paintings?

A pop art still life of soup bowls and a lemon, a hard-edge color field of bands and arcs, and a California pool behind a modern house.

How do the three styles differ?

Flat acrylic has opaque even color and no visible brushstrokes. Oil impasto has thick brushwork and blended edges. Soaked stain has thin translucent color soaked into raw canvas.

Can I paint from these?

Yes, as a reference. The picture shows the subject, colors and layout clearly.

Are these works by a known painter?

No. Each is a new image styled as a painting in the named look.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
