ANGELA REILLY, MIEN oil on board, initialled, further signed and titled verso 23.5cm x 26cm Framed and under glass. Note: Investigating the luminosity and tone of flesh, Angela Reilly’s paintings technically exude the precision of an old master, likened to a contemporary Holbein. Unusually, Reilly’s paintings becoming more detailed the larger their scale. Though almost photo-realist in their accuracy, Reilly’s work powerfully communicates what is felt as well as seen; realising the intangible. Reilly believes, "Portraiture is a preservation of ones memory not just preservation of appearance." Born in 1966 Angela Reilly studied Fine Art at Duncan of Jordanstone from 1984-87. In 1987 she moved to London working as an illustrator. In 1995 she began to concentrate solely on painting, moving back to Glasgow in 2003. Subsequently Reilly has exhibited in National Portrait Gallery, The Scottish Royal Academy and The Royal Glasgow Institute. In 2006 Reilly was commissioned to paint Lord Falconer’s - then The Lord Chancellor’s - portrait; was awarded a prize for portraiture by the National Portrait Gallery BP Prize 2006 and in 2007 featured in a BBC documentary. Angela Reilly's work is widely exhibited in London and Scotland.

This excess was rife amongst the Big Three manufacturers (Ford, General Motors and Chrysler) but there was another carmaker that offered a slightly different approach whilst keeping their products broadly within the style of the times.The Studebaker Corporation was a small (by comparison) company based in South Bend, Indiana, producing a very distinctive range of models that originated from the drawing board of Raymond Loewy Associates. Loewy made his mark as an industrial designer between the wars, with everything from Gestetner duplicating machines to giant streamlined locomotives and the 1932 Hupmobile roadster. He was later to gain international respect for originating such diverse and iconic images as the Coke bottle, the Greyhound bus, the Lucky Strike cigarette packet and both Shell and BP oil company logos. These are all examples of absolute timeless design that have been taken initially to the heart of the American people, and now all around the world. Loewy's relationship with Studebaker began in the 1930s, but it was in the post-war years that his genius for the iconic was properly applied to motor cars through an evolving line of distinctly-original models, particularly sleek sporting coupés.The glamorous Studebaker Silver Hawk Coupé of the late 1950s was a typical Loewy creation, on-trend but offering a certain exclusivity of style distancing itself from the ‘shiny tin’ on offer elsewhere.Classic Saloon Car racing in the UK has grown exponentially over the last thirty years and Blue Riband events like Goodwood’s Revival and Members Meeting and the HRDC Chamionship for pre-1960 saloons attract massive crowds. The St Mary’s Trophy at Goodwood is probably the most prestigious event for these cars and, although the regulations are strictly enforced, it does provide a home for some unusual vehicles that actually raced once or twice in period. A smart entrant could spend some time combing through old race programmes, do some research into power/weight ratios and arrive at a serious contender for overall honours which is exactly how this fabulous 1959 Silver Hawk racer came to be sitting on the front row of the grid at Goodwood in 2019.The car was built by Patrick Watts Racing to their normal high standards and fitted with a mildly tuned, 350ci Chevy engine from Daytona Design in Florida, a Borg-Warner T10 gearbox and a Dana 44 rear axle, a fairly bullet-proof combination that shouldn’t need touching for many races.The suspension is, unbelievably, adjustable for camber and caster as standard but, with the addition of Leda Dampers, period Mustang unvented discs and the correct springing, the Hawks competitiveness isn’t all about straight-line speed as it handles incredibly well.The separate chassis is tied into the body with a welded-in roll-cage designed and fitted by Custom Cages in Daventry and the gleaming Cameo Beige paintwork is the handiwork of Full Circle in Marden.Moulds were made from the heavy chrome bumpers and grilles and are reproduced in chrome wrapped fibreglass to save weight and add practicality to the racing if repairs are ever required.It’s fitted with a Lifeline Zero 360 plumbed-in fire extinguisher system with electronic activation, the Corbeau Pro seat is on slide adjustments for quick change pit stops and an ATL foam-filled, 100-litre fuel cell resides in the large bootThere is a considerable amount of further information and detail available about the transformation of this old road car into a winning racer, far too much to list here, but a full specification and build sheet will be made available to interested parties.Race history:2018; At a very wet Donington Park HRDC race, Patrick beat Steve Soper to pole and finished second in the race after some niggling problems which were subsequently cured.2019; Pole and winner when shared by Karl Wendlinger and Patrick Watts at the Goodwood Revival in 2019 only to be excluded, with many other cars, for having roller rockers. These gave no performance advantage but Goodwood are sticklers for period accuracy so they were immediately replaced with standard rockers. So equipped, Patrick put the car on pole at Castle Combe a few weeks later and lead the class, mixing with the Mustangs, before a split sump necessitated a retirement.There is a decent spares package with the car which includes 10 new wheels, spare suspension wishbones, uprights, spare axle and LSD, chassis, standard engine block, crank, heads, glass, two stainless exhaust systems, 98db and open for very loud!, and more.The car is road registered, BOC 772A, and it would be technically possible (MOT, lights, exhaust and tires) to use it on the road. What a fabulous opportunity, win one of the World’s most prestigious classic saloon car races, pop the number plates on and burble off through the Sussex lanes on the way home, just as we used to do in the early sixties.On a serious note, this is a superbly prepared and presented classic racer, ultra- competitive, simply maintained, admired everywhere and sensibly guided. We welcome any inspection of this amazing Studebaker.

Nina Mae Fowler This Is Your Life, 2021 Pencil on Paper Signed verso 10 x 15cm (3¾ x 5¾ in.) Known for her sumptuously detailed large-scale drawings and installations, Nina Mae Fowler's work interrogates themes of celebrity, beauty, power and sexuality. Fowler often uses subject matter from a seemingly bygone era to throw into relief strikingly similar contemporary narratives, such as abuses of power across industries and our own role as a consumer of celebrity culture. Education Graduated with a first in Fine Art Sculpture in 2003 from Brighton University Exhibitions/Awards Luminary Drawings: Portraits of Film Directors by Nina Mae Fowler, National Portrait Gallery, London, UK, 2019 The National Portrait Gallery awarded Fowler this major commission which features drawn portraits of British Film Directors, sitters included, Amma Asante, Ken Loach, Sir Ridley Scott, Sir Sam Mendes, Asif Kapadia and Sally Potter. The portraits form part of the museum's permanent collection. Fowler has also been shortlisted for numerous prizes and awards, including the Jerwood Drawing Prize (2015 & 2010), The Discerning Eye Drawing Bursary Award (2016), Aesthetica Art Prize (2014), Drawing Now Award (2014), Young Masters Prize (2012) and the BP Portrait Award (2008). Her works have been exhibited within the context of cultural institutions and museums including; Kunstsaele Berlin, Germany (Drawing WOW, 2020) and Neuer Kunstverein Aschaffenburg, Germany (Starke Frauen, 2013). Fowler has exhibited in galleries internationally, which includes frequent solo and group exhibitions in London (Cob Gallery, Lazarides), Paris (Galerie Suzanne Tarasieve, Galerie Dukan), Hamburg, Berlin (artnow Gallery), Leipzig and Hong Kong (Contemporary by Angela Li). Her works are held in notable private and public collections including; The National Portrait Gallery (UK), Balliol, Magdalen and New Colleges Oxford (UK), ColecciónAl Limite (Chile), Imago Mundi, Luciano Bennetton Collection (Treviso, Italy) and the ' Try-me' Collection, (Virginia, USA). In 2018, film director David Lynch's establishment Silencio in Paris held a retrospective of Fowler's work. Gallery Representation Cob Gallery, UK, Suzanne Tarasieve, France, art Now Gallery, Germany About the postcard artworks The life of actress Frances Farmer has been subject to dramatic fictionalisation, relentless scrutiny and mistruths. Having found fame in the 1930's she struggled with the image Hollywood forced upon her and spent the next decade in and out of psychiatric hospitals where she was mistreated and abused. She subsequently suffered from mental health issues for the rest of her life and was subject to a rumour that she had been lobotomised during one of her involuntary institutionalisations. In 1958 she appeared on "This is Your Life" to dispel years of speculation and innuendo. It is devastating to watch as she feels forced to explain herself, relive the worst times of her life and respond with perfect rationality. Her agony is writ large upon her face as she continues to be probed and pushed in front of an eternally unquenchable audience. This drawing is after a still from the broadcast."
