| Sarah Wimperis on the Beside the Wave Stand |
I was at that spot via an invite from
Sarah Wimperis (
The Red Shoes) who is representing the
Beside the Wave Gallery. She had unopen to of her operate on demo which looked excellent. Interestingly I think her Gallery was the alone i to last sporting the novel QR code. People who purchase the plant tin accept them away forthwith away too I learned this agency that she is also rehanging the stand upwards every morning!
I also met
David Paskett, President of the
Royal Watercolour Society too nosotros had a prissy chat nigh his recent sense of taking the Entry to the Open Exhibition online. I learned that the artists are at nowadays selected too I'll last aiming to post service who they are inward the nigh future.
The Fair has an extensive make of galleries offering a consummate make of plant on newspaper from the real traditional to the real contemporary. I noticed that at that spot are a lot of good known English linguistic communication landscape artists too I was picking out names such as
Edward Bawden,
Alfred Heaton Cooper - who operate I honey (He's the "NC Wyeth" inward the Heaton Cooper dynasty),
William Russell Flint,
John Piper,

I spotted a epitome by
"February" past times Stanley Roy Badmin RWS on the
Babbington Fine Art stand upwards which took me dorsum to my childhood too prompted a post service nigh it on
The Art of the Landscape - too buying the mass which was business office of my childhood!
The
Francis Iles Gallery had a fine display of the operate of
Rowland Hilder (1905-1993) too I discovered that they evidently get got
the largest stock of his work inward the UK. Hilder is unopen to other landscape creative someone I recall from my childhood.
Ali Yanya is a contemporary artist, represented by
Orme 11, who struck me equally an excellent draughtsman - too I wondered why I hadn't seen him before. He studied at the Royal College of Art where he got a Distinction his MA Printmaking. He produces
watercolours and
etchings. He has a real clear too sophisticated (but simple) fashion too to me he looked real much similar somebody who should last applying for membership of the
Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. I also idea his operate was a full create practise - now's the fourth dimension to purchase folks!
So - that's a flavor of the fine art fair. I had a costless ticket only a ticket unremarkably costs £15 if y'all hold off too purchase a ticket on the door. I think it's definitely worth a visit.
