Where we are

A real room, on a real street, with real opening hours

Buying art online asks you to trust photographs. A gallery you can walk into asks nothing of the sort. Come in, look at the surface of the paint, see how a piece changes when you step back from it, and talk to someone about it. Nothing here is a reproduction, so what you see on the wall is the only one of it that exists.

What to expect

Three things, and none of them is a sales pitch

  1. Look, for as long as you like

    Nobody follows you around the room. Take your time, come back twice, bring a friend whose opinion you trust.

  2. Ask about the artist

    Every work has a person behind it, most of them based here. We can tell you who painted it, when, and what they were working on at the time.

  3. Take it home, or think about it

    If it is right, it is yours. If you want to sleep on it, the whole collection is on this site with the price on every piece, so you can keep looking from your sofa.

Two ways to buy

The gallery and the website hold the same collection

Visiting is not the only way, and it is not the better way. It is simply a different one. Here is what each gives you, so you can pick.

Come to Davie Street

  • See the real colour, scale and texture, which no photograph gets exactly right
  • Ask questions and get an answer in the same minute
  • Carry a piece home the same day
