We have sold the third of the four Robert Gillmor prints that were recently added to the gallery, which means we only have one left for the remainder of 2008, print no. 38 of 55 of “Settling to roost”.

More new work, this time from Esther Tyson. We have added 5 new paintings and 1 mixed media piece, so please visit Esther’s collection to see them.

We have added 4 new mono prints by Carry Akroyd to her collection. Each is a serigraph (made in small editions of less than 10 each), employing mono-printing techniques so none is identical.

The Tyzack family proved successful in Tuesday’s offer from the UK’s Guardian newspaper and the 2002 Turner Prize-winning artist, Keith Tyson, of 5,000 free downloads of his bar-code-like “History Paintings”. Both Andrew and his father, Chris, managed to successfully win one copy each, with the ‘digital’ paintings linked to their location on the planet - from the Guardian article:

“Each work will consist of a unique randomly generated sequence of vertical stripes in red, black and green - the colours of the roulette wheel. Every image will have its own title, based on the geographical location of the user, and a serial number.”

The following are cropped images taken from the Tyzack two:

We’ve sold another of the recently added Robert Gillmor works, this time of the “Settling to roost” print. Prior experience shows that Robert’s pieces tend to sell quickly, so if you are looking to purchase something special for the new year, we encourage you to act now!

Seven new pieces from Katrina Cook have been added to her collection. The works consist of one painting and six mixed media drawings.

Two new woodcuts from Bruce Pearson have been added to his collection. Each is from an edition of 24, though a limited number of both remain - 6 and 8 prints respectively, at time of writing - so act quickly!

We’ve added more pieces from Victoria Edwards, including mixed media pieces as well as new drawings of the fauna of the Galapagos Islands. Visit Victoria’s collection to view the new work.

Two sets of signed and numbered, limited edition prints from Alexis Rago have been added. Please visit his collection for more information.

The new book shop has been added to the site, so please click the Books button on the left to start browsing our selection. We currently have a number of titles in stock which are signed by the artists themselves, such as Nature Drawings and Land marks and sea wings by John Busby, In a new light by Bruce Pearson, and Haiga by Yukki Yaura.

Artist’s who have books in their collection gain a new button in their menu which lets you visit their selection of books at any time from their profile or collection pages:

On each book page is an animation showing a selection of the content from each book - either leave the animation to run itself or hover your mouse pointer over the edges of the pages and click to turn them at your own speed:

Happy browsing!

We’ve added two new lino cuts by Robert Gillmor. We have two copies of each print (from an edition of 55 for both). Visit Robert’s collection to view more details.

There are a number of changes to the site, the most significant of which is a move to using PayPal as the shopping basket provider. However if you would like to use alternative means of paying for any work, please feel free to contact us directly and we will be happy to discuss other forms of payment.

Another new feature is the navigation menu at the top of the page for each artist:

To use it, scroll to the icon representing your artist of choice and click the icon. Their collection will then open. The TLG logo icon will take you back to the artist selection page of the site:

At the top of each artist’s page, there is a row of icons. These represent the ‘Artist’s collection’ and the ‘Artist’s profile’. The currently selected icon is green and the other icon will be orange to indicate that it can be clicked to visit that page.

The collection page shows the work of each artist and enables you to add pieces to your shopping basket (and view your shopping basket). To add items to your shopping basket click the Add to Basket icon next to the piece:

To view your basket at any time, click the View basket icon:

The profile page provides a slideshow of the work of that artist, and provides a short perspective of the artist and/or their work.

Today, Andrew and Debbie are pleased to announce the launch of the new Land Gallery website. After several months of work, the new design is finally (almost) ready. With the exception of the bookstore*, which will be updated and completed over the course of the next few weeks, the site is ready to use.

We hope you enjoy the changes that have been made while renovating our gallery, but would value any feedback you can provide. Please use the contact form to let us know what you think.

Thank you and happy browsing,

Andrew and Debbie Tyzack

* We will be adding the bookstore soon. In the meantime, any books for purchase can be found in the artists’ collections.
