J P Smith
Jimmy Smith loves painting Scotland. “ I try to capture the mood of
the place and not just the view” explains Jimmy. A highland loch with
menacing brooding clouds or a bright sunlit day showing that life can be happy;
my work tries to capture that moment in time. In most cases it is a mood a
feeling and a perception and most times it is how I feel that makes the painting
work”
JP Smith originals can be found in homes galleries and private collections
worldwide.

Frank Zyck
Frank paints – crazy paving – coloured shapes of whatever is in
his head ( his comment) Frank Zyck has developed a style of abstract art where
he has a message in every image for the viewer to interpret. A little like
a face in a bun Franks work is easy on the eye but the viewer will return for
a second or third look.
Frank says “ I like to paint and I feel my art should be accessible to
all. I like to see my work being sold at prices people can afford “
