Bird Art Galleries

I have been privileged to be invited to be a regular exhibitor at two galleries in East Anglia, Brett Gallery in Monks Eleigh and Hemingstone Frames within the Stonham Barns Complex.  Each has opened up new opportunites for me to display my work on an ongoing basis. in addition to continuing to enter my art in my an ever expanding Exhibition calendar.

 

Brett Gallery       Since July 2015 with an ever changing selection of originals and prints   

Bridge Farm Barns, Monks Eleigh, Suffolk IP7 7AY   Tel 01449 740465 

Win Gage, the owner of Brett Gallery, invited me to meet her advisor when she fist set up the Gallery and I must admit, despite over 25 years experience at the time, I found an outsider's critical eye a little daunting at first.  I came away with some good advice however and was delighted to know that I had actually been selected to be one of the inaugural local contribitors.  As they say, the rest is history with me still being there over two years later, changing my originals as they sell, mixing them with a selection of limited edition, framed prints and keeping a wide range of mounted prints in stock too.  This gives the buyer a chance to take away a mounted print and choose their own frame.   If an original does not appeal to someone within a sensible time, I aim to replace it with a different painting.  I'm pleased to say this has not been necessary very often!  Win keeps in touch with me on sales and she or her staff often ring to ask for a bespoke requirement, whether it is a commission, a change of frame design or simply providing a new combination of paintings to accomodate the admirer's personal circumstances.  

I have shown a few photographs below to give a feel of the Gallery but nothing can replace going along to see the paintings in a real life setting.  The Gallery is on the site of Corncraft, the long established tea rooms as well as a collection of unique, independent retail businesses, each offering the visitor an unparalleled selection of distinctive products and good service. And a lovely cup of tea too!

 Dedham Art and Crafts Centre            From October 2018.  Originals, Framed and Mounted Prints

High Street, Dedham, Nr Colchester, Essex  CO7 6AD.  Telephone  01206 322666

My next venture into the Gallery world, Dedham, Constable Country on the North Essex, Suffolk border.  Probably this picturesque village is best known for its connection to John Contable and his art.  Most will know that he is famous for capturing the beauty around Flatford Mill, East Bergholt and Dedham Vale.  His landscapes have become world renown over the centuries and, although he did not paint birds, it seemed an apt location to exhibit my work.  The centre is well worth a visit for its variety of craft and art exhibits and the village offers a quaint English setting with cream teas and boating along the River Stour.
