SCULPTURE At COASTAL GALLERY

Many of you will have already seen the images for Mike Turners new sculpture for us – The Angler Fish – which is both stunning and practical – it is also a lamp ! This beautiful piece is exclusive to Coastal Gallery and made especially for us by Michael Turner Sculpture – now on display in our window at Coastal Gallery Lymington. Joining this new arrival will be OCEANS 9 – by Carol Bruton – which has just been on exhibition at The Chelsea Flower Show and also at an exclusive exhibition in Monaco. Inspired by the oceans these stunning sculptures may be ordered in a variety of colours and are available in two sizes. Please come and visit Coastal Gallery to see these two great sculptures – and much more !

Sculpture at Coastal Gallery

We have found many customers have been looking for unusual sculpture and quite agree that they can really add drama and focus to complete an interior design scheme. It is exciting news that Monaco based sculptor Carol Bruton will be exhibiting with us her ‘Oceans 9’ series following display at this years Chelsea Flower Show. We will update you as soon as this beautiful piece is available to view at the gallery. New sculpture has also arrived from Ingrid Sterling – including a stunning female torso in bronze – and of course the work of local sculptor Michael Turner. Visit soon to see what else has arrived !

Michael Turner – Longfin Tuna

We are delighted with the arrival of a fabulous new stainless steel sculpture by Michael Turner – a Longfin Tuna ! Many of you are familiar with Mike’s work and the desirability of his sculptures – most of which are now ‘supersize’ ‘ and so this delightful fish is a highly collectable piece of more modest proportions – now on display in the window of Coastal Gallery and priced at £2750 – do come and see !

Art for Easter

Easter is almost here and what better time to reflect over the long weekend and plan that special spring make-over ? We have just received some beautiful new work by Jason Miller which is bright and zesty – perfect for achieving that ‘wow’ factor. The impact achieved from changing your artwork at home cannot be over stated. Choose the coastal chic of artists Claire Wiltsher, Claire Gill and Jennie Slater or cool contemporary abstracts by Geoffrey Robinson, Martyn Brewster or Stephen Powell – you can influence the whole style of your interior design scheme by careful selection of the ‘right’ art. Happy Easter !
