Does anyone know any local artists?
A friend is after a nice watercolour of Cherhill downs. Or maybe where she can purchase one?
Cheers!

There are loads of local artisits, there was an arts festival / week at marden house recently, I tried to go but ran out of time...

Try the library as they pften display local artists work.

The gallery on London road is a great little gallery. They stock or can get all sorts from very well known artists, and the lady in there is really helpful and I am sure she knows loads of local artists.

Good luck.

Thanks everyone. I had a look in the London road gallery before, but it was quite expensive.

They have this great modern perspective painting of cherhill done by a guy called Felix.

He's quite a well known artist, his prints are about £80 as we were thinking of buying one ourselves ..... worth a look and they are no more expaensive than any other gallery !

no your right went in there yesterday. some very reasonably priced work. I saw the pictures you mean, she didn't like them though. The chap in there said he may be able to get one arranged for her.
Nice little shop really.
Oh and thanks for pm Peter, I will give my friend the details!
