Stunning new limited editions from our favourite artists for Spring 2014

February 2, 2014 clarke Leave a comment

We are delighted to showcase a collection of brand new limited edition prints by some of your favourite artists this Spring.

Earlier this year we saw the much anticipated release of a new character from Caroline Shotton. Celebrating a rising sports star, Caroline brought us ‘Rugby Bull’, inspired by England flanker, Tom Croft. She has since gone back to her roots with her favourite cow images with the delightful, All You Need is Love, Home is Where the Heart Is and Home Sweet Home.

There is also a fantastic new piece from John Wilson who defies the limitations of the canvas transporting us into his 3D world. Inspired by L.S. Lowry and drawing on his own family’s heritage, Wilson’s ‘Down By The Mill’ succeeds in making the ordinary extraordinary. This amazing edition will be a definite sell out compared with previous releases.

Instantly recognisable for his signature style, Bob Barker presents a collection that sees us drawn into his world and invited to bask in the warmth of his sentiment and depth of character.

Finally, Paul Kenton returns with a collection celebrating the ever changing London skyline. Turning his hand to the impasto techniques of the Impressionists, these new works mark the beginning of a very significant year for Paul.

Impressions of London by Alexander Millar

May 10, 2013 clarke Leave a comment

Very occasionally in the art world, one is privileged to witness history in the making. Alexander Millar and his evolution as an artist over the past three years is one such occasion.

Millar, an entirely self-taught artist began his career more than twenty years ago, painting watercolours and taking inspiration from landscape artist Ashley Jackson. But it is arguably in the last three years that Alexander Millar has started to become one of the most significant artists of the contemporary art world.

Starting in 2010, Millar was invited to exhibit at the Great North Museum: Hancock in Newcastle; an exhibition which took Millar’s work to new heights. His skilful depiction of buildings, cranes, viaducts and docks which dominate the characters walking or cycling past. These elements of ‘real life’ were increasingly present in the scenes, and he expertly began to pull the story away from single figure or couples, the dads with kids and dogs; to create the big picture, the context.

Being hailed as the Lowry of the north-east by respected art critic Sue Steward was just the beginning for Millar. Following his revered ‘Working Man’ exhibition in Newcastle, Millar went on to exhibit a series of work devoted to the working men and women of Sheffield and its steel industry presenting this work at the Magna Trust, a museum on the site of Templeborough Steelworks.

Now painting towards another major museum show, this collection of London scenes marks a juncture in Millar’s work, as he transitions from ‘gadgie-man’ to an artist who is drawing comparisons to Lowry, Turner and Monet.

The stunning collection of London scenes are available as limited edition prints, signed and numbered by the artist in only 95 edition. If you would like to view the new collection click here to visit our website.

Enid Hutt Gallery are thrilled to launch the exciting new spring collection of seven new pieces from contemporary artist ‘Alexander Millar’.

The trademark collection consists of four small limited edition sketches, which will make a delightful gift or accompaniment to his previous pieces.

The two larger paper images depict a nostalgic theme, “The Pigeon Fancier” and “Gone Fishing”, which are already selling very quickly.

Finally “Day Break” the edition on canvas depicts a more atmospheric scene, conveying the early morning start to a day, with the familiar ‘gadgie’ character.

In this collection Alexander Millar cleverly brings ever more humanity into his paintings, his defined depiction of these working men, allows us to associate with them like never before. Their lives and loves, trials and tribulations, hopes and dreams, are laid out before us on canvas.
