Happy 90th Birthday Official Limited Editions

Gallery

Sir Quentin Blake can tell wonderful stories without a single word, but his partnership with Roald Dahl was made in heaven. The diabolical ingenuity of Dahl came into its own only when he wrote for children and created magical stories that have enthralled generations.

The first book Roald Dahl and illustrator Quentin Blake worked upon together was The Enormous Crocodile. Roald and Quentin soon became firm friends, cementing one of the most eye-catching and distinctive collaborations in children’s literature. Their work has been published in over 40 languages and today are considered modern classics.

This latest release of 9 illustrations are in edition sizes of just 90 in recognition of Sir Quentin Blakes 90th Birthday.

Unique hand embellished limited editions from Andrei Protsouk

Gallery

Andrei Protsouk was born in the Ukraine and graduated from the Lugansk State School of Fine Art in 1981 followed by a Masters Degree awarded to him in 1990 by the Repine Academy of Fine Arts. Andrei is one of the most talented artist’s of his publisher’s stable. His traditional and classic education gives him the confidence to create in whichever direction he desires.

While his style is beautiful and unique, he also has the ability to paint and draw in the classic form. Indeed, his early sketch books of life form could well be mistaken for those of another well known artist, Michaelangelo. He has an artistic ability that delights.

Andrei, who currently resides in the USA, has exhibited throughout the world and is one of our most popular and successful artists.

Bond …. James Bond. A new limited edition from Ben Jeffrey.

Gallery

Ben Jeffery continues to celebrate British culture of the last century with an iconic new studio edition commemorating 60 years of James Bond.

The work represents an extraordinary homage to one of the most successful and enduring film franchises of all time and captures the transformation of 007 over the last sixty years, and the various chapters of the much-loved narrative. Assembling his cast of 007s against the quintessential Bond backdrop of the London skyline, Ben has represented each incarnation in their iconic attire, and captured the attitude and poise that every version has emanated in their own unique way.

Whilst striving to achieve a strong likeness, Ben endeavours to capture the personality of the character in his portraiture, embracing the individuality that each Bond has brought to the table! Ben renders these familiar faces somehow unfamiliar with his unusual colour palette and striking silver leaf embellishment. This leaf is applied by hand to each edition, which offers a uniqueness to every piece, and suggests a sense of wealth afforded by his subjects.  Ben’s innovative approach brings something completely new to his representations of key figures of popular culture and sets them apart from those of his contemporaries.
