New stunning original paintings and limited editions

Exclusive to Quay Art, are these stunning new originals from Jo Galindo, Squiggles ( Octopus ) and Barnaby ( Puffin ), which are also available as hand embellished limited editions.

The key to Galindo’s unique style is the inventive ways to apply paint to the canvas. By using different techniques and mediums on top of one another, depth and contrast is created. Powerful contemporary colours are abstractly incorporated with details of wild animals in a loose, energetic style, which combine for an unusual but satisfying end product that demands attention and allows each person to interpret them individually. He attempts to express his own emotion and sentiment in the face of the animals to build a connection with the viewer. Unorthodox tools are used to apply paint including spoons, nails and bits of rubber. Moreover, each single piece of art is irreplicable due to the random nature of propelling paint with a flick of the wrist or a swoosh of the arm.

Golden Harvest is the latest Bronze Frog Flower Sculpture

GOLDEN HARVEST captures the quiet beauty of Autumn with a beguiling green frog framed by a graceful arch of oak leaves. Rich golden amber and lush green patinas evoke the warmth and splendor of the fall season, while vibrant red ladybugs add a playful touch of color and symbolize good fortune. The frog’s verdant green patina, enhanced by subtle, black-toned mottling, creates a striking contrast against the warm Autumn palette.

A unique fusion of painting and sculpture

Theo Crutchley-Mack is a contemporary British artist with a sculptural approach to painting. He appears in private and public collections throughout the UK.

As a teenager, Theo designed a commemorative 50 pence coin that entered national circulation with royal approval, marking the start of a clear artistic trajectory from a young age. Since graduating from Falmouth University with a sell-out degree show, Theo has secured representation with five acclaimed galleries across the country, from which he regularly exhibits his paintings.

In 2018, he was invited to the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, where he painted and documented the abandoned whaling stations to support fundraising efforts for the South Georgia Heritage Trust. This organization works to restore the island’s damaged wildlife habitats. The dilapidated nature of these ruins had a profound effect on the evolution of his work.

Theo strives to record the obscure landscape, often ancient and atmospheric. He spends many hours outdoors, making sketches which serve as the foundation for larger, abstracted studio paintings.

His paintings are carefully crafted from multiple layers of reclaimed wood and found materials, including old rope, fishing nets, and nails. The constructions are then saturated with thick coats of paint, applied expressively to forge a tactile fusion between painting and sculpture. Each piece is presented in an elegant box frame with anti-reflective glass to maximise enjoyment of the composition.

New Limited Editions with Gold Leaf of Endangered Birds

A great thinning of the skies is underway. Around 50% of bird species are in decline worldwide. Our dawns and springs are quieter each year than the last. An almost unimaginable abundance has been lost. It does not have to be this way –– but we will not save what we do not love.

New from Jackie Morris are illustrations from her recent book, The Book of Birds. This is a lyrical catalogue of bird species native to Britain and identified as endangered by the RSPB Red List. It is a dazzling celebration of birdlife in Britain, re-imagining the classic field guide for a new generation of nature lovers.  

Each Limited Edition has hand applied gold leaf and includes a hand written quotation from the book.
