up-dated gallery pages

JAK ADMIN — Sun, 08 Apr 2012 16:23:04 +0000

I have just up-dated the gallery pages, the previous layout was OK, but as the number of artists grew so it was looking more untidy. Hope you like and prefer the new layout.

Coming soon – New shop, buy prints direct from JAK Fine Art printing.

Merry Christmas.

Christmas is fast approaching, but not fast enough as far as our Daughter is concerned. Only one day of snow so far, but this was soon washed away by the rather more frequent rain, fortunately my gardening skills are extremely poor so I am just as happy having a marsh / swamp as I am having a meadow.

This last year has gone really well, I have been fortunate to meet loads of new artists, each having their own unique style and subject matter. Some of whom were fortunate enough to have a violin / guitar recital as my Daughter was keen to practise with her new instruments. When possible, and I have permission to do so, I like to add their website to the gallery page, so have a look. The art I get to work with does inspire me to have a go, so a potential new year resolution could be on the horizon. A big Thank you to all of our customers over the past year and I look forward to working with you in the New Year.

A few new projects to get launched in the New Year, I will post more details about these nearer the time but I hope to offer customers some really interesting options.

Merry Chrimas and a Happy New Year.

Newcastle based artist, Ben Holland, who creates pen and ink drawings of buildings in Newcastle, has recently launched his website called low moon over high town. This collection of works will be on exhibit at the ‘central perk’ coffee shop from 25th November until 22nd January.

In addition, three drawings were submitted to the ‘Biscuit factory’ , a Newcastle based art gallery, for the young artist of the year. All three drawings have been approved for selection. So good luck to Ben.
