Default Need some art?

H and I have bought quite a few bits from these guys and their studio is just down the road from us. As they just knocked 60 off a couple of pieces we bought I thought I would give them a mention.

Jason's stuff is really cool and we have a couple of his pieces, he does the textured stuff in the first 3 sections of the pull down menu

They also do photos on to perspex, one of the pieces we just go is a black and white horizon shot on perspex it reminds me very much of some of Pete's work, I'll take some photos when we put it up

Damn there is some good work on there. My house is rather barren at the moment and I have been thinking about getting some work to put up. Actually the tryptichs on there would look good in the living room. Have you had a wander around the studio?

I do want to go back to the little studio/shop in Boulogne as that had some cracking art in there.

I really like some of the Jason Howard tryptichs - I might well be tempted at some point.

Some of the textured stuff in the textured paintings 1, 2 & 3 look very familiar. They look like prints that I saw on the Northlink Ferries that travel between Aberdeen and Shetland.

I love some of the textured originals, if I had the money I'd buy some.

I saw some awesome awtwork at ILVA in lakeside today, for some reason a couple of the original pieces there just jumped out at me.

Heres some of the stuff we have already

This is a fabric piece which is in the living room, I really need to get it put on the wall properly!







This piece is above our bed, the flash really doesn't show it off well



This is the new piece on the bed. Its going to be put up on the wall opposite the bed so its almost like a long window. Heather isn't sure about having two pieces opposite each other, but I think in a bedroom when your only really going to be able to look at one piece or the other it should work OK. We fell in love with this, its a photo which has been transfered on to a piece of acrylic so it has a depth to it and is glass like on the front. When we saw it we just had to have it!

I think the fabric pieces look very artistic on the shelf
