Asian art is very 'a la mode' as more and more auctions take place featuring 'very hot' Indian artists and growing contemporary Chinese work, not to mention the Russian Impressionists. All of which will grow as the significance of the new super powers continues to influence our lives!

As I was going to St Ives…..Cornish

Ian is always ‘going to’ St Ives and has built a strong bond with the area and its artists. We will be exhibiting from West Cornwall annually - this year it will be The St Ives School featuring work by: Sandra Blow RA, Paul Feiler, Sir Terry Frost RA, John Milne, Breon O’Casey, Mary Stork, John Wells and Fred Yates and many more..

We have in stock work by Ken Symonds, an artist quickly becoming one of the gallery’s favourites, with not only his delightful figurative pieces but distinctive canvasses from the 70s and 80s.

We love sculpture of many different materials: stone, glass, bronze, ceramic. Our collection includes English, French, Spanish, Nigerian, Zimbabwean and Australian. We feature one sculptor during each exhibition but we always have stock of Anita Mandl (bronze & stone), Sally Fawkes (glass), Rick Jackson (glass), Jacques Le Bescond (bronze & marble) and Francois Agate (carrara marble)

19th/20th Century

Our main interest in the 19th Century was originally Victorian watercolours, which developed into a period collecting the work of Sir W R Flint. We are planning an internet exhibition of his work.
We still continue to work with the RWS and NEAC.

21st Century

Although a favourite period of Ian's is 1850-1950 we are relishing the 21st Century with gallery artist Ben Blethyn. The juxtaposition of his work in the gallery against our more traditional art has been a great success, both originals and limited edition prints are going well, and the artist’s reputation is growing.
