Imagine Gallery

Recently, I have become excited about different artworks that will be arriving in the near future.

I wanted to share them immediately even though I am not sure of the arrival date.

The reason for that is they are still being created.

But, that's no reason to not show them I thought, as it is always the anticipation of what will arrive 

that can be the most exciting of times in the gallery.

The excitement and the desire becomes almost like a drug

I just know I won't be happy until it is here in my possession for a little while.

  

Then I remembered that with all of the current nonsense going on that has distracted me somewhat,

that there were many deserving exhibits that had "slipped through my net" and not been shown.

I decided that it was time to play "catch up".

So here are a few [very few] images of pieces that should have been shown as they arrived.

I will add others over a period of time.

[It is no good me saying tomorrow, because sometimes for me tomorrow never comes].

One man is long overdue for a mention, Noah.

Yes that's correct Noah.

He may have not yet created an Ark but he has come very close.

It is impossible to put his work in any "pigeon hole" all I can say is that it is very unique.

He works on many different scales from small delicate silver and bronze containers

To giant size tables standing on antique industrial wheels.

His work [for me] has a slightly 'Jules Verne' nostalgic feel about it, and as suspected the evolvement

Of his sculptures have a history of their own.

In time I will feature many of his smaller works.

The artistic creations of this incredible young woman are equally hard to describe and to show you.

Viewed "front on" they look like paintings

Which in fact they are, but paintings with a great difference.

They are 3 dimensional artworks.

In fact she told me that being unable to describe them to galleries has really hindered her.

"It seems that my work has to be a painting or a sculpture but not both", she told me.

In the past she has even tried to describe them as a collage, but that didn't work either

as it seems it would then have to incorporate printed paper, which it doesn't.

So for want of a description it is sometimes ignored and goes unseen.

I just call it beautiful

Works for me.

I hope that the images shown explain a little of how her work really looks.

It is painted on 'chamois' leather attached to wood, which is then cut out and built in layers

Which create a 3D painting.

To view them from side to side is an education.

Again, I will show more in the future.

At least this doesn't need an explanation.

It is a "very" limited edition print that I am thrilled to have from an American artist.

The edition is of '91' prints which is very unusual.

Framed, and hanging on the wall in front of my desk it is an image that I have enjoyed

each day since its arrival.

I have tried many times to work out the story within the picture, yet every day I imagine another.

The art shown above are a sample of what has arrived and is now on display.

However, I couldn't help myself and I had to show you just a hint of what we will have in the future.

So below are two examples of what will be arriving very soon.

I won't say anything about the artist or what we will be exhibiting of his art at the moment

But I can tell you that we will not have these two paintings.

They are sold.

Although limited edition prints are available of both. 

The paintings that I have chosen and those still being created I will leave to your imagination

Until that day when I can show them to you as a complete group.

But I think that you can guess that they will be just slightly different to traditional landscapes.
