Art News and General Information:
From time to time we will post information about art which is topical and interesting. We also will include some background posts on the history of art. For more info click Art News and General Info.
The Future
Of course we’ve just launched, so everything looks a bit bare just now (if you sniff your screen you’ll probably make out the smell of new paint). Indeed, we’ve still got the builders in as it happens, so what you see right now is nowhere near the finished product!
So, like Grand Designs Kevin McCloud, why not don your hard hat and take a look round now that the foundations have been poured. Hopefully you’ll see plenty of potential and will remember to check back again in a few months to see how we’re getting on. As we develop we will be providing you with a secure system to buy affordable art.
If you want to bring your own TV crew with you, do let us know first and we’ll stick a couple of bay trees in pots outside the front door!
Cheers,
The Original Art Team!

Greetings…this is a new site & i think you are going places…it is about time that the taboo of selling original art-work online should be broken…there is a huge potential for selling online so long as both the buyer & seller have a degree of protection…it may not have the cudos of buying from an “up-market gallery” where the customer is pandered to to get a sale but it does make business sense…all those Arab Sheiks cannot be seen parking there latest Ferrari on line to purchase a Picture…for some going to the shops is a hobby but the astute business person/collector shops online and the whole world is their market place and of course you cut out the middle men/women…i shall be having an exhibition in October in St. Ives, Cornwall and for the fisrt time i shall be marketing work from an exhibition online…so that discerning people in America and the rest of the world can purchase original work at an affordable price and this may the last opportunity to do so as i have very limited stock partly due to the fact that i destroyed ALL IMAGES in my studio last year on mid-summers day in what i described as a Mcclure’s Raku…a gift to the Gods of Fire and very successful it was!
Mind is not a vessel
To be filled…but a FIRE
To be kindled
Best regards pete mcclure.
