Colin Ian Christie - new original paintings an unbelievable £45 each

We've had the pleasure of showing Colin Christie's work for years, and now have a brand new batch of delights...
 It always amazes me about the diversity in not only subject matter, but medium and technique as well.
Still distinctly 'Christie' in nature, Colin's pieces that we show concentrate on landscape, still-life and beach scenes in oils, watercolour and acrylic, but I've just done a wee bit of googling and found other subjects that Colin frequently paints too, like ballet dancing.
What a talent!

This gorgeous display (and others) of Colin's work is in the gallery at the moment, but I am pretty certain we will not have them long as the delightful little 4' x 4' pieces are an absolute snip at just £45 each.
It's not often you can find quality original paintings for that price! Check out the website for more outstanding Scottish Art.

Scottish contemporary art at it's best!

 Well, that's me (Marsha) officially back to work - albeit not as often as I used to..... I had forgotten how wonderful it is to be surrounded by gorgeous contemporary art all day.
 We have a showcase of Philip Raskin (above) and our old favourite Peter Luti (below, who has a load of fantastic paintings - go dad!).
 Both artists are selling well at the moment so check out the website if you fancy snapping one up!

Mum Marsha

Daughter Marsha has a daughter. So has her husband Moe. At 2.5 days old she has no name as yet. All well

Saturday, 10 March 2012

Sandie is officially in the driving seat.

So today is my last working day in the gallery and I've been training mum up to look after everything while I'm away. She's been through a mixed range of emotions today........ from indifference, to elation, to despair, to even more despair, to .... well.... even more despair. Good luck mum!! Wishing you all the best and lots of arty sales!

Over and out (for now)

Spring Exhibition: Up and running

Mum did a fabulous job with a wee blog post I see. It's great that she's getting into the spirit of things before I head off on maternity leave (next week!). I think I'll have to go over putting photos on with her though...... it's easy when you know how, mum!

So the new exhibition is up and running and is so far being received with great enthusiasm. The weekend saw mum winning employee of the week as she sold lots of lovely pieces of art. Good job mum!
We have a delightful array of Peter Luti postcards which are proving very popular.... especially the big bums - I don't know what it is with my dad's fascination with large posteriors.
So all the new work is up and ready to be viewed (and bought!). I can tell you that hanging paintings is not as nearly as easy or fun at nine months pregnant than it used to be pre-pregnancy! I will be very sad to leave the gallery when I'm on maternity leave, but not sorry to have a break from changing exhibitions!
I like this little display of Peter Luti & Gio Martin's. I think the work compliments each other very well (there's even a couple of Marsha originals in there that don't look too bad as well).
So that's a wee look at the gorgeous Spring exhibition. Looks nice in the photos, but I can tell you now that it's much better seen in person. Keep updated on our new opening times on the website. www.gallerialuti.co.uk
