THE CARBON REMOVAL CHALLENGE

We clean up after ourselves.

Our commitment is to make every painting we deliver carbon neutral, for all our customers, at no extra cost to them.

It’s one thing to attempt to reduce the carbon footprint, it’s another thing entirely to try and reduce the damage by removing the carbon itself.

This is why supporting carbon removal technologies is essential to fighting climate change.

In 2024 Watergate Contemporary are committed to being not just carbon neutral, but attempt to make a positive change by backing these carbon removal efforts.

If you’re interested in how it works please follow link in our bio.

Allan Morgan's inspiration comes from the light, colour and atmosphere of the natural landscape. Capturing the changing sky is what Allan Morgan's paintings do best and he contrasts this with vibrant, bold foregrounds that instantly draw the viewer into the painting.

Explore Allan Morgan's original paintings to find the perfect landscape for your space.

Scottish artist John Russell lives on a farm in the north of England, which is the inspiration for his rural landscape paintings.

Using the familiar scenes around him, as well as the sites he has visited all over Britain, John creates paintings ranging from Highland crofts to Cornish mines.

OMG just landed!

Too excited to wait to post these large scale energetic portraits - collages. Tearing, cutting and layering of magazine pages onto the canvas, it is a meticulous technique which requires the skill of selecting and placing different shades and colours together which will gradate to form each portrait and the illusion of three dimension.

Call the gallery or message your interest as they’re not on the website yet!
