Darling We Love You, Fred Yates (1922-2008), British, mixed media on board

A charming mixed-media work by Fred Yates that captures his distinctive blend of naïve figuration, bold colour, and heartfelt sentiment.

Yates is renowned for his unpretentious, joyful depictions of everyday life—street scenes, cafés, domestic interiors—rendered with a childlike directness and an unerring eye for emotional truth. His work is characterised by thick, expressive brushwork, vibrant palettes, and a warm, humanistic vision that resonates with collectors worldwide.

This piece exemplifies his signature style: simple forms, rich texture, and an infectious sense of optimism. Yates' paintings have been exhibited extensively in the UK and Europe, and his work is held in numerous private and public collections.

The work is signed and dated.
