California Dreaming
Our California dreaming collection brings together a range of artworks inspired by California. There’s a reason Tony Bennett left his heart in San Francisco, and The Mamas & the Papas were so hooked on California Dreamin’; its natural beauty and vibrant culture are hard to resist. From glossy prints to delicate paintings, and abstract illustrations to figurative drawings, take a walk through The Golden State, it’s cliff-lined beaches, redwood forests and the Sierra Nevada Mountains. For calming artwork, Turner-prize nominee Gary Hume’s signature style is instantly recognisable and highly collectable. The artist is known for his sensitive and reserved technique and nuance of colour. Screenprints such as American Tan XXIV exemplify his restrained but highly appealing colour palette and minimalist linework. Gary’s nude Bikini Print is a testament to the undeniably calm aura his works emanate. Printmaker, illustrator and image-maker Anna Marrow creates groovy, illustrative scenes which channel a certain Pop Art chic. Her works offer an esoteric insight into urban and suburban life. With a dab of tropical zest and a splash of 70s retro aesthetic, her resulting artworks are as joyful as their titles suggest: Ice Cream Parlour and Meanwhile at the Lido. British painter Georgia Peskett is known for her edgy urban landscapes and city-dweller portraits. Georgia breathes new life into previously mundane moments, reimagining the all-too-familiar with a flick of her paintbrush. Wandering figurative displays such as cityscape oil painting, Buon Gusto, San Francisco, illustrate Georgia's fascination with big city life. For works that exude confidence and vitality, Bruce McClean’s artwork continues to garner well-deserved attention from top collectors and galleries worldwide. His highly abstract and decorative tendencies challenge artistic custom, making for idiosyncratic, flamboyant and multi-perspective works. You can buy botanical prints by Bruce, such as his Pink Beach Towel, an ideal centrepiece for its luminous colours and striking, organic shapes.

Art From the East
Discover new artistic cultures and style with our Art from the East collection, showcasing some of Asia’s best contemporary artists. This diverse continent has a huge array of different cultures that are beautifully translated through their artworks. From the effortless and minimalist style of Japan to the more eclectic and colourful pieces from India, there’s something to suit all tastes. Take your pick from photography that will give you some serious wanderlust to paintings and prints that stand out from the rest. As the world’s largest continent and with approximately half of the global population, it’s impossible to make generalisations about this vast region. China has certainly had a huge influence in East Asian art, where you’ll find a prevalence of traditional calligraphy and the noticeable impact of the ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius as a uniting force. South Asian art tends to incorporate a bright palette of colours, and Indian art, in particular, has been strongly influenced by Hinduism, with the religion’s many gods often to be found in these pieces. Get to know the beautifully understated style of contemporary Japanese art with Mizue Yoshimura. This painter was born in Fukuoka, Japan, but now lives and works in London. Drawing inspiration from the natural world around her, Yoshimura explores the rhythms of nature and the ineffable qualities of light and water in her paintings. Her [minimalistic paintings[(https://www.riseart.com/art/paintings/minimalistic) appear simple at first sight, but there are depth and complexity to these canvases that portray concentric circles and patterns that appear like biological forms. She also uses interesting and experimental techniques in her work, building up layers of acrylic paint and chiselling into them to create texture and depth. Yurim Gough is a South Korean artist who relocated to the UK in 2007. Her art expresses a playful and experimental style, and she takes a unique approach to her creative practice. Her pieces are mainly hand-fired ceramic bowls that have been drawn upon with a ceramic pencil, depicting mainly portraits and nudes. She uses a sketchy and vibrant style that expertly communicates the model’s emotion and personality, bringing each piece to life. Taiwanese artist Lee Yuan Ching brings traditional techniques into the 21st Century, and he uses primarily ink and watercolour in his practice. Lee began his artistic journey by studying traditional calligraphy with this father, and he has since translated this into his own contemporary works. His approach and materials give his work a fluid and liquid feel, with colours and forms that blend effortlessly into one another. Travel photographer Andrew Lever will take you on a journey with his beautiful shots, capturing everything from jungle palms to Sri Lankan Elephants in his work. While he takes photos in diverse locations across the world, many of his photographs showcase the natural beauty of the Asian continent. We love his use of colour – Andrew often applies a sepia filter to these photographs, creating a captivating sense of nostalgia and times gone by.

Looking for a little spice? Discovery Walk is a journey across the extremities of the human body - an ideal choice for playful and lighthearted collections. Miguel Vallinas Prieto explores the animal in us all. His metamorphic works display animal subjects posing in contemporary outfits while gazing absently into the camera. Labrador Portrait, for example, demands as much laughter as respect for its zingy, fantastical content and technical wizardry. Prints & Collages Multi-media artist Delphine LeBourgeois produces Dada-inspired prints and illustrations. The artist stylishly reimagines classical Renaissance paintings with a touch of comic book chic and a drop of dark humour. Surprising works such as digital print Smoke V targets Fine Art traditions by their very dismantling of them, paving the way for a new-age figurative art which is at once sensual, sinister and entirely original. Tragi-comic prints by Carl Moore present animals pretending to be other animals. Bright, bubblegum palettes and pathos-pumped prints like Snail Scream Sprinkles make for hilariously relatable content. Mariano Molina makes the comedy cut for his creative, off-the-wall art. Exploring various aspects of contemporary society and culture, Mariano’s urban collages make for a real hoot. The Edge quite literally breaks through the confines of the canvas into the real world. Paintings Another worthy investment is the Pop Art paintings by American artist Ellannah Sadkhin. Although cartoon-centric in style, Ellannah’s empowering portraits maintain a certain sophistication and charm. Consider Wonder Woman to make your walls pop with vibrant street art imagery. For buyers seeking an extraterrestrial treat, esteemed street artist and creative Marc Craig stands out for his multi-coloured mixed media paintings. Imaginative and impactful, Marc’s supersonic doodles like Small Psychic Voyage suggest spontaneity - great to energise quiet or dull spaces. Other light-hearted pieces include expressionistic oil paintings by Francesco Polazzi. Francesco brings together family favourites, such as Snoopy’s Charlie and other animal characters, in an abstract style. Chaotic colours and playful patterns feature widely in a portfolio which promises to uplift.

Petite Pieces
Our Petite Pieces collection brings together a compilation of small, but by no means simple, artwork for sale. Explore a constellation of visionary creations to suit smaller spaces or add to a growing collection. From petite prints and paintings with expansive colour and depth, to subtle drawings and collages which soften and assuage, browse small art by emerging and established artists. Petite Paintings On the prowl for something truly original? Abstract expressionist painter Daniela Schweinsberg instils her small paintings with a dynamism to be reckoned with. With bold gestural brushstrokes and palettes to please to the eye (many of which become pieces in themselves), her mixed-media compositions such as Small Treasure #06, a blend of acrylic, oil pastels and charcoal, does not depict but exists as something entirely new and unique. Abstract paintings by Fintan Whelan demonstrate a masterful interplay of form, texture, shadow and movement. Fintan’s striking multi-textural works exhibit immense clarity and photo-realistic quality. Paintings like Thread of Dreams could be mistaken for aerial photographs of otherworldly coastlines. Petite Prints Illustrative screenprints by Clare Halifax take inspiration from traditional textile arts and Victorian designs. With a touch of William Morris, Clare’s high-spirited prints of delicately drawn cityscapes such as Biegal Brick Lane are full of character. It’s no wonder Clare was invited to create a limited edition series for the prestigious V&A Museum. Of equal acclaim, Mat Cahill plays with abstracted forms, patterns and portraits concerned with ideas around crowd mentality. Delightfully detailed and yet painstakingly constructed (taking as long as 400 hours), Mat’s illustrative drawings - Oh Mummy, can you pick me up? - make for desirable collectables. Petite Collages Looking to buy deeply decorative works? Figurative collages by internationally renowned artist Sarah Thomas promise to inject a drop of colour into any interior. Sarah expertly selects and overlays bright magazine cut-outs. Her elaborate configurations of colour combined with disorientating layers of material can be seen in Hands On Hips. Collage-assemblage artist Micosch Holland fabricates surrealistic mixed-media collages. Often referred to as a hybrid of vintage materials and avant-garde digital technology, Micosch’s style is at once an ode to 20th-century art and a pledge to new-age creative processes. As an example, Durst Und Der Plan III is cleverly poetic with dark undertones. Perfect for buyers in search of visually stimulating graphic art. Petite Sculptures Among our small sculptures for sale, you will find miniature ceramic sculptures by Yurim Gough. Korean artist Yurim draws directly onto clay bowls made by her own hand, coupling the sensitively contoured form of the bowl with the unique human form of her model. Though slight, Yurim’s delicate depictions require immense skill and patience. Christ Mitton reinvents discarded items such as crisp packets, bricks and crushed cans, transforming the mundane and forgotten into memorable marble monuments. His hand-carved stone sculptures such as Fag Packet, Carrara marble with a granite plinth, challenge society’s attachment to transitory pleasures.
