The 2010 First Minister's Christmas card painted by Jack Vettriano has raised £86,000 for charity. The original oil painting and limited edition prints of the image were sold at auction in St Andrews on Friday raising a staggering amount for these amazing charities.

The original painting - Let's Twist Again, featuring a dancing couple at a festive party raised £68,000 while a special collection of limited edition prints went for £18,000. The original painting which was expected to sell for £25,000 was unveiled by Mr Salmond at the National Gallery of Scotland in December.

The money raised on the night will go to Bethany Christian Trust, Maggie's Cancer Caring Centres, Quarriers and Teenage Cancer Trust.

Alex Salmond said: "Jack is a great supporter of good causes and his distinctive style is recognised around the world. He has proven himself time and again to be Scotland's painter of the people."

Previously declined to display any of Jack Vettriano's works, the National Galleries announced on Thursday his self-portrait The Weight will be exhibited at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery from September 2011.

Record number of visitors attend Jack Vettriano exhibition

Tue, 20 Apr 2010 22:48:00 GMT

Jack Vettriano's exhibition, Days of Wine and Roses has come to an end, the first of a three date tour of his original works. The array of figurative images has attracted a record number of visitors from across the UK to Kirkcaldy Museum with over 45,000 people attending the exhibition in just five weeks, a record breaking number for the Museum and Art Gallery.

The record breaking exhibition was reported to be the museum’s most successful event in 85 years with people travelling from all over the world to see the show and on the last day of the exhibition people were even queuing round the block- This showing was not only an amazing event with great numbers but a fantastic boost to Kirkcaldy and Fife's cultural presence and economy.

The exhibition showcased an eclectic mix of originals ranging from dark, seedy, mysterious paintings, known to more colourful and bright contemporary images taken from his visits to Milan and the Monaco Yacht Club who commissioned him to create a series of paintings to mark the centenary of their flagship vessel, the Tuiga.

The brand new paintings were exhibited along with previous pieces to mark 20 years of Vettriano working as a full time artist and will be touring Europe with the second showing at London in July/August and Rome in September, dates to be confirmed.

Also showcased at the exhibition were his brand new signed limited edition prints and exhibition posters which are available to buy both online and in store. You can buy Jack Vettriano signed prints direct from stock on our website here.

The Best Artist Of 2009 is?..

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 14:58:00 GMT

You may have already seen something interesting in the left hand column of our website.. it's our poll where you can vote for your favourite artist of 2009.

You can vote from any page on our website --> try the home page.

We've taken a selection of the most popular artists this year... they are:

Todd White

Todd White's work has caught the imagination of art collectors around the world in addition to many Hollywood celebrities, members of the Rich List and ambassadors of the high life. At face value, the pieces appear as simple caricature. Contorted body shapes and exaggerated expressions expose a past in cartooning and animation; the perfect place to develop the skills to understand character from a simple look, or simulate body language with utmost economy.

Sarah Jane Szikora

Coming from a large family Sarah Jane Szikora was constantly looking for ways to amuse herself and soon discovered that drawing and painting were by far her favourite. She enjoyed art and music classes, so it was natural to pursue an artistic career. Sarah completed a foundation course at Harrogate College of Art where she studied a range of subjects, including photography, sculpture and graphics. During this time she maintained a lifelong interest in simple drawing, and always enjoyed the life class most.

Doug Hyde

Doug Hyde is well known for recently being named as the UK's best selling artist, and has often been featured on the BBC news- both national and local. He has also appeared on channel 4 and various radio shows and won the title of 'The most popular living artist in the UK' from BBC National News.
Doug Hyde's art will almost certainly put a smile on your face, just from the affection you begin to feel for the subjects in his paintings.

Henderson Cisz

Henderson Cisz paints in a very characteristic fashion with soft tones and paints many images of cities in a beautifully mood stirring style. He always brings out the effect of weather on the appearance of the urban environment. Not only does this subtly affect the way the people in the painting are standing, but it affects the way the observer feels too.

Alexander Millar

Alexander Millar's prints are incredibly emotive, prompting touching memories of families and loved ones that have long since gone, powerfully mixing sadness and humour.
Inspired by his native town of Springside, and his adopted home of Newcastle, Alexander Millar's paintings depict the shambling shapes of the old "gadgies"; he would see these crumpled characters traveling to and from work, or slightly worse for wear coming back from the pub.

Caroline Shotton

Caroline Shotton's infectious sense of humour shines through her work, somehow managing to create paintings that do not resort to lampooning the classic works and icons of popular culture it inspires. Instead, Caroline draws on genuine affection for the subjects, and you can't help but enjoy the cheeky punning of Caroline Shotton's artwork.

Paul Kenton

As a teenager, Paul Kenton learnt to surf on the wild beaches of North Devon and as a keen surfer he has travelled the world realising inspiration for another passion; his art. Much like Henderson Cisz, he takes great inspiration from the sea and paints wonderfully perceptive urban landscapes.
He says: "My Cityscapes reflect the many moods of manmade landscapes; I find it exhilarating to express furious movement, artificial lights and the vibrancy of a busy City centre at night as well as the subtler moods of a misty dawn at the same venue."

Vote for your favourite artist today, to decide who will be the nation's most popular artist of 2009!
