'One Summers Day' Has arrived from the talented artist Lisa House.

This very pretty, unique original mixed media painting is just wonderful.

Lisa adds lots of texture, by layering up fabrics and hessian string, with thick layers of impasto. Her eye for colour makes her work really popular in the gallery.

My story

Having had a big interest in Science Fiction and Fantasy as a child, the passion has continually increased over the years. With the help of Star Wars in particular, at the age of 7, and the genre as a whole. Fueled by nostalgia at the age of 20 I bought a single vintage Stormtrooper figure.. this was the start of many years of collecting vintage action figures and vehicles. Searching bootsales, discovering rarities and making contacts. SciFi and Fantasy Art is just as much of an interest too.. collecting art books, now amounting to 350+ dating back many years.

I was drawing and painting creatures and spaceships at the age of 5, from the imagination especially, and this has continued through to the present day.

I’ve decided to showcase my early pieces of artwork (traditional and digital) and now along with my NEW paintings, photography and imaginative designs, I will be selling them too. Limited edition prints, plus handmade goods, original, bespoke, one-offs and upcycled items.. The kind of product that a fan of the genre would like to have around..
