Emperor Yellow Crab by Ollie Tuck brings the theatre of the shoreline into crisp focus. Set against a warm, buttery ground, the crab is rendered with deft, textural brushwork and a lively interplay of russet, terracotta and deep sea-green. Tuck's celebrated seafood portraits offer both wit and refinement, distilling the essence of coastal markets and salt-sprayed mornings. A charming statement for kitchens or dining rooms, this compact study pairs culinary nostalgia with contemporary flair, capturing the quiet grandeur of the ocean's most characterful crustacean.
Ollie Tuck is a Sussex-based Still Life painter who has exhibited with the RSMA and ROI.
Her paintings are a response to the beauty of colour and light she finds in everyday subjects. Her recent works combine traditional still life subjects with a contemporary use of colour and pattern in highly decorative, joyful compositions.
