    Art collection thread

    I've just added a painting by Devon artist Hester Berry to my Collection. I would be interested to see what other forum members have on their wall.

    Nice work that, difficult to sense the size, but it looks like a piece where on viewing you get different perspectives as you lose yourself in it.

    Thank you Steve. It's 24"x 36" I love her use of light and movement, a great talent!

    Love the piece of music and bought this from a market the artist was selling her art at. It’s backed on vintage piano paper.

    About 10 years or more ago, a friend bought a genuine Rolf Harris painting and used to mention it whenever he got the opportunity. He’s been fairly quiet in recent years though......

    Years ago in Keswick we came across a few "Tree of life" paintings by Kerry Darlington. She eventually moved on from these to her next series but via a gallery I commissioned this piece from her about 4 years ago. Really happy with it. Measures approx 30 x 30 inch inside the frame.

    That painting is awesome. The depth, perspective and light just draw you in.

    Still collecting/dealing in Modern British from the 1950s thru 1970/80s. A few currently hanging on my walls...

    Alan Davie:



    Another Alan Davie, 1968 (tricky to capture with the glazing)



    William Gear, 1958:



    John Elwyn:



    Terry Frost (looks a bit pale in this pic!):



    Loads more on my instagram, some personal collection and some I am selling: https://www.instagram.com/nickwatersart/

    Alan Davie


    and another


    Terry Frost


    Victor Vaserely


    Juan Miro


    and another


    Salvador Dali


    and another


    interesting Picassos, not what most people expect








    Henry Moore, known more for his sculpture


    and Alexander Calder, father of the mobile (not the 'phone version)


    Hugh Buchanan


    and three very different John Pipers






    that's enough to be going on with!!

    Not usually a huge fan of Frost's later work but that's a nice one :)

    One of many, Banksy 'Nola' or 'White Rain', very sought after and could be going up for sale soon.

    Saw some of Banksy work in Amsterdam and was pretty impressed, but blimey the price of his work now is scary. 4k for a skateboard with a stencil on it!

    Sheffield has quite a vibrant local art scene.

    We have two Pete McKee originals bought from his exhibitions and also a Jo Peel bought similarly.
