* CLAIRE HARKESS RSW (SCOTTISH b 1970), KINGFISHER watercolour on paper, signed and dated '96 23cm x 16cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: Claire Harkess was born in Ayr, Scotland, graduating from Glasgow School of Art in the early 1990s. In recent years her painting has taken her to fragile lands to study and interpret life on the edge. Antarctica, Outback Australia and St Kilda are all places where, in such extreme environments, survival is difficult and the balance of life is delicate. Six hundred miles due west of Ecuador surrounded by the Pacific Ocean lie the Galápagos Islands, made famous by Charles Darwin’s ‘The Origin of the Species’. This isolated volcanic outpost remained relatively untouched by man, evolving to become one of the World’s unique ecosystems. The balance present in nature is clearly communicated through the paintings. Painting in watercolour offers a unique directness; the essential qualities of light and energy present in the natural world are the very essence of the medium itself. The delicacy of her palette and oriental economy of her mark-making creates a subtle tension representing a world that is ‘holding still’, giving a sense of freedom, spirit, time and place. Claire's work is exhibited at The Scottish Gallery and at other prestigious galleries around the UK.
* JENNIE TUFFS (BRITISH b 1943 - ), STILL LIFE WITH YELLOW FLOWERS acrylic on paper, signed 63cm x 48cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: Jennie Tuffs is originally a Londoner who is now based in rural Scotland near Edinburgh. Her paintings of flowers are recognised, not least by botanists, for their ability to capture and release the spirit trapped in the heart of the bloom. During the 1960's Jennie trained at St Martin's School of Art & Goldsmiths College in London and at the Academia dei Belli Arte in Florence. Jennie's work has been shown in solo and mixed exhibitions nationwide and her work is collected internationally. Jennie's work is known to millions of travelers in London through her posters commissioned by London Underground for display on the tube. Her most recent commission for the Royal Botanic Gardens both promotes and celebrates the newly redesigned and replanted Broad Walk at Kew. Other commissions include HMRC, Amnesty International. Cassells Publishers, BBC Scotland, London Transport Museum, The New York Graphic Society, The Property Services Agency, Practical Gardening, The Tree Council, Agricultural Risk Management, The Wine Society and Ricordi Grafiche.
* BRUCE TIPPETT (BRITISH 1933 - 2017), LANDSCAPE WITH REEDS charcoal on paper, signed and dated 14.03.58 42cm x 53cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Artist labels verso. Note: Bruce Tippett was a British born artist who was championed by Philip Granville (Lord's Gallery, London) and the legendary Betty Parsons (Betty Parsons Gallery, New York) and others. Jane England writes in her 1992 catalogue : "[In 1957], he […] saw Japanese brush paintings for the first time at the British Museum [which now houses nine Bruce Tippett drawings]. He recalls now that 'Something awoke in me and I entered another realm'. The works of the Japanese calligraphers inspired him by their mixture of spontaneity and contemplation. Like the Zen masters, Tippett achieved spontaneity by constantly paring down the image and concentrating on its essential spirit, with no sign of the struggle involved. When Tippett first saw a work by Hartung at Gimpel Fils in May 1958, he was struck by the similarities of their respective calligraphic styles. These similarities had different origins. In Tippett's case the energetic strokes and lines came from his early drawings of reeds and stakes in marsh landscapes and the studies he had made of building structures, whereas Hartung's expressive calligraphy came from his early experiments with automatism." Alan Bowness pointed out in his "Portrait of the Artist" (1958) that "having made the first steps on his own Tippett realized that the calligraphic paintings of Hartung pointed in the direction he wished to go […] but by the end of 1957 Tippett had reached something that was recognizably an original manner, and the drawings done then and at the beginning of this year have a remarkable ease and assurance." After Peggy Guggenheim closed her Art of This Century gallery in 1947, Parsons was one of only a very few gallery owners to promote avant-garde American art at a time when the commercial demand for it was minuscule. The Betty Parsons Gallery was also, for a considerable time, the only gallery in the US which promoted and supported Abstract Expressionism. Parsons played a major and significant role in establishing New York as the centre of the art world and Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, William Congdon, Clyfford Still, Theodorus Stamos, Ellsworth Kelly, Hedda Sterne, Forrest Bess, Michael Loew, Lyman Kipp, Judith Godwin, Tony Smith, Robert Rauschenberg, Barnett Newman and many other artists owed much to Betty Parsons. Bruce Tippett first visited New York in 1965 when Dorothy Miller bought one of his paintings for MOMA. He met Parsons at the Venice Biennale in 1966 and immediately afterwards she visited his studio in Rome and bought several paintings and drawings for her gallery. Bruce Tippett exhibited regularly at The Betty Parsons Gallery from 1967 and had his last solo show there in 1981, the year before Betty died. Bruce Tippett continued to exhibit in the US and the UK and even more frequently in Italy and France. He died in France in 2017, where he had lived and worked since 2005. His work is held in some of the most important collections in the US and Europe including The Louvre (Paris), The British Museum (London), Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna (Rome) and MOMA (New York), yet in his country of birth, his work remains relatively unknown.
