CLOSED Sunday 27th June

My gorgeous niece is being Christened this Sunday, so unfortunately the gallery will be closed for the day. I'll still be around Callander, however, if anyone specifically wants to visit then. E-mail me at info@gallerialuti.co.uk if this is the case.

Peter Luti and new exhibition.

It's that time when we're just about to start hanging the new exhibition again. It always comes round much faster than I think it will! We have some absolute gems from Peter Luti again... good work dad!
He tells me that he's going on a 'research' trip to Barra next week (although the word PUB has been mentioned more than a couple of times). I'm happy though, as it means lots of new boaty paintings. Love it!
The new exhibition is looking like it's gonna be lovely and colourful - just what I like! And we have quite a few purple orientated paintings. Excellent - I love purple!
Check out the website Galleria Luti for all the new work as it arrives. Everything should be up by Saturday (fingers crossed), so looking forward to seeing all the lovely paintings on the walls.

Something a bit different - Peter Luti

Something new and a bit unsual from dad who has been busy painting away as normal.
He's used a different technique for this cathedral piece to give an eerie green effect on the lines of the building. Might take a bit of time to perfect this.... but it is definitely a good start!
He has come up with the goods (as he always does!) with some other pieces too.
And I'm quite excited as dad has been working on a gorgeous purple (my current colour of choice) and blue painting which will be ready soon. I love it already... it'd look grand in my new living room (hint, hint dad).
More pictures will be coming as and when pieces are finished. Check out all the art we have at http://www.gallerialuti.co.uk/

He Has exhibited widely with both solo and group shows and his work is held in many corporate and private collections throughout the world.
His paintings are powerful and mature capturing the effect of light on pastoral landscapes and beautiful mysterious still life compositions.

Women in the Trossachs

Last night we had a lovely evening with the Women in the Trossachs group, who came along to hear a bit about the gallery.
It was a nice opportunity to mingle and get some chat with like-minded women living and working in the area. Check out thir website at http://www.womeninthetrossachs.org.uk

I even made some mini pizzas for the occassion (which I think I ate most of! Yummy!).

Michael Kay Jewellery

Had a lovely chat with Michael Kay yesterday who was down with some new work. This little gold ring with a cubic zirconia is my absolute favourite piece of jewellery of all time.

I love it! I don't think it'll be on display for much longer as I may well snap it up for myself!
Michael's rule of thumb is that no two pieces he makes will be the same. It always makes for a delightful surprise when he brings work in.

This amethyst and moonstone choker (trillium) is lovely too - almost like angel wings. Good job Michael! You can see all of Michael's pieces at www.gallerialuti.co.uk or on our facebook page.

Check out the new Scottish Gallery Guide supplement from Uptown Magazine at http://issuu.com/uptownmagazine/docs/scottish_gallery_guide_2010
You might just recognise the painting on the top right hand cover. Excellent choice of them, if I do say so myself.

L'Arte per la Primavera (Spring) Exhibition is Open

The Spring Exhibition is now open with some absolutely cracking pieces on show.
We've had a fairly busy time already this morning and the sun seems to have brought out the troops. Hoorah.
We welcome new artist Rob Mulholland (bowls piectured above), whose work looks fabulous!
Spring has definitely 'sprung' up a promising start to the exhibition. Long may it continue!
