This is the entrance of the Arthur and Albert studio where the Art Shop Collective have found a home for their twice a month contemporary artefacts sales.
The brain -and the red glasses- behind the 27 artists strong collective!
Katie, a member of the collective and a lovely person to boot!
Taking place every 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month, last Saturday was the opening of the venture.
There was cake, tea and rose wine on offer.
Yep, there was music on the day! And the atmosphere was really chilled and friendly. The day was sunny and the public very supportive. We sold quite a few artworks on the day!
The till with tea, business cards and other promotional materials such as artists statements.
Yum!
My watercolors and below, one of my digital prints on display at the very bottom.
As you can see the collective is a collection of very disparate styles, the only selection criteria being it must be just very good art indeed.
Above another one of my digital prints, called "Fear".
The lampshade made of sunglasses was quite popular with the crowd!
The shop was pretty busy all day. Set right next to the Regents Canal in Haggerston, we benefited from a fair bit of footfall from all those ramblers making their way to Broadway market.
Many of the collective came along with their friends. The collective is composed of a good mix of up and coming and more established jobbing artists such as recording artists who also paint.
