Unit price: per

Born in 1964, Robert studied fine art at Sunderland University, he is currently living and working in Northumberland.
Robert’s work is regularly exhibited in galleries throughout the UK, his paintings are held in private and corporate collections both nationally and internationally from Europe to America and as far as Australia and New Zealand.

"I describe my work as ‘Painting Nature’, as a direct response to my immediate surroundings; exploring colour, unity, composition and expression yet maintaining the very traditions of painting practice. Making sketches as well as my own visual notes, I paint intuitively and expressively with bold sweeping brushstrokes that sum up whole passages of the landscape before me. Painting on location and in the studio, I often rework paintings intuitively to produce a completed work.”

FAQs

We love mixing new works with existing pieces in your collection and this can be a great and easy way to create a gallery wall. Buying contemporary work to sit alongside traditional pieces you may have inherited is a great way to modernise a space while giving the more traditional pieces a new lease of life. Our advice would be to have a common thread that runs between the pieces to tie them together - this could be similar tones or colours, or a theme that runs through all the works.

This is a favourite topic of ours. We LOVE framing! There are lots of factors to bear in mind before you choose a frame and what you pick will depend heavily on the space you’d like to hang the piece in. If you’re hanging on a neutral wall, we love to go for a colourful frame and using interesting moulding, be it reeded or bobbin, is a great way to add texture to a room. For works on paper with a deckle edge, we like to float or surface mount the paper, so you can see the lovely raw edge, and then finish with a simple wooden frame. If you’re trying to make a space more contemporary or traditional, framing can be a great way to do this. We also love framing traditional works in modern frames and modern pieces in really traditional old antique gilt frames.

Originals refer to one-off artworks, either oil paintings or works on paper, where there is only one of that particular work. A limited edition print is one of an edition of that work. The smaller the edition, the more exclusive, as there aren’t so many out in the world and this is usually reflected in the price. We also have some open edition prints, which means there is an unlimited number of that print, which is a really brilliant and affordable way to start buying art or adding new pieces to your collection.
