Pinkfoot Gallery

If you're looking for a very special piece of art, from oil paintings, sculptures to hand-made and Giclee prints, you've come to the right place. The Pinkfoot Gallery is on the North Norfolk coast in a village called Cley next the Sea. There is a large, free car park by the village hall so you can leave the car and explore the delights of Cley on foot. 

We are a friendly and approachable gallery, and look forward to meeting you

Water, Rachel Lockwood

9 – 24th March, Pinkfoot Gallery and by appointment 

During 2024 Rachel will be selling some of her own paintings, her private collection. Although she admits it's like choosing which dear ones to part with, her walls and studio are becoming too crammed.  We will be splitting the collections into subjects and releasing them throughout the year. We start with Water; in 2006, Rachel started a small project studying the life in and around her own garden pond. This grew into a collection of highly finished oil paintings. In 2008 she had her first Water exhibition and continued painting water in this style for the following year until her work took into a different direction, as we know this artist loves to explore. We will be showing some of the collection in the gallery but for the larger paintings we will need to book viewing appointments via the gallery - info@pinkfootgallery.co.uk
(please note, due to the finish on these paintings, it is impossible to reproduce the colours accurately)

John Foker SWLA

5th February 2024

We have a new collection of paintings by artist, John Foker. This Durham based artist (winner of the Artists for Nature Foundation (ANF) Award 2015) is known for his unique approach to painting the environment.  Although birds frequently feature in his paintings John explains the colours, textures and space that surround them are as important as the birds themselves.

The Studio Collection by Rachel Lockwood

We are looking forward to our next collection from Rachel Lockwood which concentrates solely on the life surrounding her studio in Cley next the Sea.

The land around Rachel’s studio has her trapped and mesmerised. After years of creating a natural landscape, the creatures and vegetation within it have her under their spell, becoming the subject of her work. A visiting sparrow hawk is framed by her studio doors one day as it rests and preens. The flowering plants explode like slow motion fireworks, feeding butterflies, hawk-moths and bees. The foxes come to search and dig and the birds breed in the hollows. It is a small slice of North Norfolk and a world of its own. The owls, hares, deer etc all come, they give birth and rear their young and travel through - Rachel is entranced by it, watching the seasons and the changes and the shaping of nature.

This is a collection of her recent work the gallery has managed to take from her studio while distracting her with chocolate.

The Haslens - De Novo

14th - 27th July 2023

Father and daughter duo, Andrew and Amie Haslen will be revealing their latest works together at the Pinkfoot Gallery.

Andrew Haslen is an established Suffolk artist, well-known for his paintings of hares after hand-rearing leverets. Inspired by nature and the creatures that inhabit his mini reserve surrounding his studio, Andrew has a gift capturing the moment and character of his subjects. 

Suffolk artist, Amie Haslen studied Fine Art at Aberystwyth University in Wales where the rugged, dramatic landscape and seascape formed the basis of her work. Now established back in Suffolk, Amie is fascinated by the landscape and the secret world of fauna and flora, especially the minutiae so often overlooked. 

See exhibition here

Small is Great by Rachel Lockwood is a collection of small paintings featuring stylised creatures and landscapes from this Cley-based artist. From sleeping animal forms curled up on a forest floor to a dramatic squall hitting the beach in Cley, Rachel’s unique voice reflects the power and glory of her surrounding habitat.

Available to view in the gallery from 25th March.

Introducing Nicola Mosley

We're always on the look out for new talent; searching for unique styles with a strong voice and we think we've found it with Nicola's work. 

Contemporary landscape artist, Nicola spent her childhood growing up by the sea in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Sri Lanka. Now based on the Cornwall coast, the sea constantly informs her work.

You can view Nicola's work in the gallery from 10th February, or view online here

The Restless Coast, Suzanne Lawrence

The Restless Coast, Suzanne Lawrence

Suzanne works tirelessly to capture the light, movement and energy of her local patch on the North Norfolk Coast. Her paintings are an emotional response to what she sees, feels and hears around her in this rapidly and ever changing landscape. Whether it's a day where the east wind blows over the sea with clouds are scudding across the skies, or a sultry, hot and still day with barely a breeze, you feel what Suzanne felt as she painted when you view her work.

New Work by Jennifer Tetlow

Here at Pinkfoot we've been championing sculpture from the very start. Having enjoyed the ancient process of lost wax casting in bronze and carvings from wood, we are now very happy to announce a new partnership with this well-known artist,  Jennifer Tetlow. 

Her work is centred around her love for the natural world, where she aims to capture a creature's essence of simple shape and form. We think her work will make the perfect addition to Pinkfoot Gallery.

You can find her work in the gallery from February 2023, or view online here.

A beautiful exhibition featuring Twenty Garden Birds by contemporary artist John Dobbs opens Sunday 9th April. John makes each bird come to life in his casual yet skilful depiction of our favourite garden visitors. Painted in oil on square panels and sympathetically framed in hand-built and painted frames, these will make a spectacular collection. We expect a lot of interest in John's paintings, hence we'll be offering these for sale from 10am, 4th April via the telephone. Please email us if you'd like further information.

Exhibition starts in the gallery from 9th April, but they're available to view online now.

July, 2022

We are pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition of works by Stephen Page. The main inspiration for the work in 'Entities' comes from an interest in art and artefacts from throughout human history that reflect our changing relationship with animals.

Working from his studio in the Tanat Valley in Mid Wales, Page creates iconic sculptures which are cast in bronze through the lost wax process and finally coloured through the chemical process of patination in a variety of tones, hues and marble effects. Page exhibits nationally and internationally and his work is included in collections in the UK and worldwide.
