Paintings in Lo Cole exhibition.

Wet Summer, oil on board, 250 x 140 mm, £ 360.00

We are getting things ready here on the breezy, Brighton beach, and as we won’t be posting out any Lo Cole framed paintings, we thought we would put up a little online exhibition here. Of course, it’s best to see them in the gallery, but just in case you can’t visit us between 17 September and 16 October, here they are!

You can see more examples of Lo Cole’s work here, or in the gallery from next Saturday.

Charley Harper news!

Natural Bridge, vintage screen print, 1953, £ 400

We asked very nicely, and the lovely people at Charley Harper Studio managed to find us a few more Ford Times prints from Charley’s time as an illustrator and writer for the magazine. Each screen print is dated in the 1950s and was printed by Mr. Harper himself at home with the help from his wife Edie. This means the prints are very rare, and show some signs of ages around the paper edges. The images themselves are as crisp as when they were first pulled!

Please contact us for more details or visit us on Brighton beach. Click here to see our range of Harper prints and posters.
