A painting on board by British artist Isobel Harvey, executed in acrylic and oil stick. Lion forms part of a group of four works titled The Painted Carnival, a series exploring symmetry, presence and natural rhythm through distilled, stylised forms.
The composition centres on a singular, emblematic motif, rendered with a sense of balance and quiet strength. The surface is built through layered application, combining flat planes of colour with more gestural mark-making. Harvey’s visual language draws on the natural world while maintaining a graphic, almost symbolic clarity.
Originally from England and now based in Amsterdam, Harvey is a contemporary artist known for her structured compositions and intuitive approach to surface. Her practice references folk art, printmaking and textile design, situating observed forms within a pared-back, contemporary framework.
