Ed Saye’s exhibition ‘No Promised Land’  at The Foundry Gallery in London showcases a new series of paintings focusing on the architecture of idealism.  These works originate from found photographic images of Modernist houses falling into disrepair and the makeshift homes of hippie communities.  While these two styles of architecture seem to lie at the […]

Wayne Sleeth has been awarded a ‘Mention Spéciale’ by the jury at the Salon Des Beaux Arts International in Thionville, France.

“I am a modern artist working with the old technique of figurative painting. The play between concealing and showing is inherent in the painting technique.
