Mosaic 512 by Caroline Ashwood
"Thanks for your email, I'm delighted to give you some feedback. I love the painting more and more, it looks fantastic. It was delivered promptly and in good condition. One of the things I love about your website is being able to view the pictures in a virtual room with different colours - it really gives a sense
of what it will look like. I found the whole experience really easy and everyone has been very
friendly and helpful. Although I don't think I was aware of the 21 day guarantee period."
Ms S.H., Rochester, Kent, 2-Feb-2012
Roy - Manchester Clearances by Pat Knight
"Love it. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition, extremely well wrapped with instructions as to unwrapping! Clearly the artist felt v.protective towards her piece. I always prefer to view the actual painting before buying. We have bought a few times from a website based in London. There once you like a piece you usually have it delivered by the artist to the gallery and you can view it before buying. I prefer that approach to yours.
The work on your website is incredibly diverse, in content and standard. As a user I found it difficult to wade through mountaiins of stuff that I didn't like at all till I hit something I liked very much. There's a lot of (if you'll excuse me) really bad "erotica" there. I would be unlikely to re-use the site as a result as it was tiresome to go through page after page of this. If you could somehow separate your artwork more effectively that might help get round this problem. I did do some searches (e.g., comic, pop art) which helped somewhat, but perhaps this could be more formal."
S.D., London, 1-Feb-2012
Zambezi Morning by Steve Burgess
"We were very pleased with our art the picture is lovely. Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition however the tube was unsealed when it arrived and it could have easily been removed from the tube. Buying art over the internet was very easy but a bit overwhelming as there was so much to choose from. The Art Gallery website was very clear and beautifully presented. Overall we are very pleased with our picture and the whole buying experience"
P.G., Glossop, Derbyshire, 1-Feb-2012
Fantastic Mr Fox by Natalie Rymer
"I really love it. It was my first purchase and I was quite nervous that it wouldn't be as good as it looked on the website but it was better and means I have bought more. It did come on time and was in good condition. I was quite apprehensive to start with but am now quite addicted to it! All aspects of the service were good.
My mum recommended it to me as she's an art addict too!"
E.A.B., London, 31-Jan-2012
Grace in a Paddock (Commission) by Susan Colclough
"Hi
Loved the painting, thank you."
Ms R.G.M., Queensland, Australia, 31-Jan-2012
Citrus Sensation by Rachel McCullock
"Really pleased with the art. Was especially touched by the personal message from the artist. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Was our first time buying art over the internet, and was a little nervous, but after such a positive experience, would definitely do it again. Maybe your search criteria could be improved. We had to plough through many hundreds of pictures to find what we wanted."
Mr. M.P.H., Waterlooville, Hampshire, 31-Jan-2012
Cosmic Matter (Commission) by Cyndy Cmyth
'I love it, however, i wish i had given colour preferences... but i do love it. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition? Buying art over the Internet is difficult, as its hard to imagine what the art will look like. it would have been good if i had of been asked about colour preferences"
Ms N.M., Surrey, 30-Jan-2012
Tutti Fruity (Large) by Claire Barone
"Hello! It was difficult to make the decision to buy art over the net and wasn't taken lightly, but I just fell in love with Claire Barone's piece. I looked
and looked and pondered and scratched my chin but in the end went for it. What swung it, actually, was your 14 day returns policy. Brilliant.
Service was super-duper. Art arrived extremely well wrapped and within the time frame given."
As for the piece itself – I love it! Even better in the flesh, so to speak.
I think that the various angles and different light used in the various
images of it online gave just enough of a true likeness as is possible.
So, overall, my ArtGallery.co.uk experience couldn't be improved. I am
really impressed with the wealth of art and the diversity of the work
available and already have my eye on another painting. I've also turned a
few friends your way too.
Thanks,
Mr B.F., Walthamstow, London, 30-Jan-2012

"Nest in a Starry Teacup" by Natalie Rymer
pictures were just as I expected. Very good quality and perfect for the occasion. They both arrived very quickly on good condition.
I liked the site and will certainly use it again. I seem to recall there was an issue about having opened a particular image you went back to the start to the site again rather than to where you were and had to remember what page you were on but I might be hallucinating.
Great value, range and service. Easy to use and a great way to buy an original without trailing around galleries where often there is nothing that appeals or is within the price bracket you are looking for.
Mr G.C, Beauly, Invernesshire, 30-Jan-2012
"A Hunting We Will Go" by Ann Pearson
It's fantastic. It looks perfect above my bed and is the perfect addition to the room.Yes , all fine , you'd have heard if it wasn't.I'm fine with it. You get a chance to view so many different artists but I now have 4 by Anne Pearson and love them all. Perhaps you could offer more definition on the pictures on the website so that it would then be easy to increase the painting size for viewing. I searched for Anne Pearson on line after purchasing one of her paintings from an overpriced gallery!
Mr P.P, Chelmsford, Essex, 29-Jan-2012
'St Pauls" by Daniel Barber
The artwork I bought is perfect, exactly as described/shown and I think was a great piece for the price.
The piece arrived a few days after ordering, well within the time frame and was in perfect condition.
Buying art over the internet is no different in my opinion to buying it in a gallery, you can see the work just as clearly and closely and you have the benefit of being able to find pieces that match what you are looking for in seconds.
I wouldn't say there is anything to improve no.
I found artgallery through a google search for original art.
Mr F.S, Hinckley, 28-Jan-2012
Right Up Your Street by Heather Pittman
"We love the art. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition?
This is the second piece of art I have bought online and I can honestly say that art is exactly the sort of thing that one should be able to buy online because the images are so clear. Both times, I have chosen carefully and not been disappointed. We are very pleased with this painting.
I can't think of any aspects of your service you could improve.
Ms C.W., Putney, London, 26-Jan-2012
Last Days of Summer by Ricky Figg
"I am very pleased with the art work I ordered from your web site. Delivery was speedy and the art was carefully packaged. It was a good experience but I prefer to buy an item when I see it in reality. I used the site as I received a voucher from a relative for Christmas. He has bought a painting from the site and was enthusiastic about the range and variety on offer. I agree with this."
Ms J.G., Birmingham, 26-Jan-2012
Winter in the Lane by Suzette Datema
"Hi Aileen
I love the painting I bought. Colours are fabulous and it really brightens up our room. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I would recommend this artist. This is the second time I have bought art from the Internet and from your site. I think your site is fabulous, although I can’t see paintings in the flesh, there is so much more choice than visiting a gallery and the artists rating really helps to know that you are buying a reputable art piece. I’m not sure how you can
improve your service but perhaps being able to filter on artists ratings would help or maybe being able to test-drive a piece of art?."
Ms L.C., Easbourne, Sussex, 26-Jan-2012
Lovers by Ricky Figg
"Hi aileen,Thanks for your message.I really liked the picture Lovers,but it was not what I was expecting.I thought, reading the picture
description, that it was an original art work.It turned out to be a reproduction.I shall have to read the descriptions more closely in future,as I only buy original oils or acrylic paintings.'
Mr R.M., Buxton, Derbyshire, 25-Jan-2012
London Eye at Night by Katy Wilkinson
"I love the piece of work I bought, initially from the picture online I was unsure but once received it and put it on my wall it looks great. It was delivered on time and good condition. I was apprehensive about buying art online, however was reassured with the option of returning the painting if I didn't like it. I can't think of any want to improve your to improve your service."
Ms S.K., Sunningdale, Berkshire, 24-Jan-2012
Beach Bum by Stuart Dalby
"We are very happy with art - it looks lovely on the wall, and we are now looking for a companion piece.
Yes the art work arrived in perfect condition and on time
This is the second piece I have bought from your online gallery and I will be buying more
Service is excellent - specially the voucher facility"
Ms R.V., Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, 24-Jan-2012

Winter by Ben Dwinger
"Like the art very much. The piece was delivered on time and in good condition. We buy most goods online with few exceptions. Very happy with the service, recommended by friend and family."
Mr B.D., Cambridgeshire, 22-Jan-2012
"Figure Study 2 by Rachel Cloughton"
Very pleased with the artwork - have now had it framed and it is proving a great talking point with friends and family
It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. My first experience of buying art on the internet and I will happily do it again.
Ms L.L., York, 21-Jan-2012
"Lady With The Lamp" by Terry Wylde
Extremely pleased with this beautiful painting. Delivered on time and in perfect condition. Have no qualms about buying on the internet and would do again, we were kept informed of events at all times and spoke to he Art Gallery a couple of tims on the phone as well. Want unique/original painting rather than mass produced - found you by scouring the internet with a search term of 'paintings'.
Mr R.W, Northants, 21-Jan-2012
"Mumbai Slums" by Jasvinder Singh
I am extremely happy with the painting.
2. It was delivered sooner than expected, packaged well, ready to hang and
in perfect condition.
3. It's a great way to buy art, you get a much bigger choice than a shop.
4. A note on the website to say how you collect feedback would be helpful
as I was looking all over the site to find out how it's done.
5. Google.
Ms A.R, Middlesex, 21-Jan-2012
"Into The Blue" by Marc Riley
Well,Into the blue was the first art that I have ever bought .I think It is great ,love it.the packing was a bit tatty but the painting was in perfect order.How I found the Art Gallery.It was just luck,filcking through the web and i found your site
Mr M.F, Northumberland, 20-Jan-2012
"Daisys Amongst Roses" by Ashia Haider
The art work got a bit weak when it came to reflections etc but the flowers and vase were good.
All arrived very swiftly and well packaged.
I enjoy 'the artgallery' on line - good chance to see lots of different art
found the site by chance when searching for paintings.
Ms J. F, Monmouthshire, 19-Jan-2012
"Led Zepplin Albumn Cover" by John Plimott
very good! Delivered in perfect condition. All service works well for me!
I found you as someone I used to work with is selling with you and was looking at her pictures and noticed these.
Mr M.H, Surrey, 12-Jan-2012
"I Love Moo" by Terry Wylde
Brilliant piece of art, it makes me smile!!!
Yes, it was delivered in perfect time and in good condition. No worries about ordering on the internet, very confident. I was recommended by my sister
Mr P.H, Hull, East Yorkshire, 11-Jan-2012
"Mabon: Commission" by Cyndy Cmyth
My most recent purchase is an absolutely stunning piece of abstract art by Cyndy. I just love the colours, the movement and the textures in all her art but this is a particularly beautiful piece. The artwork arrived very well packaged, on time and in perfect condition. Before buying Cyndy's work I was very apprehensive but now have no hesitation, especially buying through the Art Gallery as the buyer has so much protection.
From my experience I cannot think of any part of the service that needs improvement, it's excellent.
5. I found out about the ArtGallery.co.uk website through Google search.
Ms B.S, Chorleywood, Herts, 11-Jan-2012
Sailing At Cowes by Jean Tatton Jones
We really like the picture-even better in real life than on screen. Yes. Exactly as described. This was the first time and it has been a very pleasant experience. The service was fantastic. There was a rush to deliver the picture before Xmas and somebody had the initiative to dispatch the picture and then contact me regarding the additional postage. Faultless and exceptional service. My only suggestion for improvement would be to find a way to view
the gallery full screen on my computer (NB This may be a fault with my
settings rather than yours!)
Found you on Google.
Mr C.C, Oxfordshire, 11-Jan-2012
"Silver Silver Moon" by Teresa Poole
Dear ArtGallery, I was very impressed with the art I bought and with your service. I love your site and will certainly be buying from you again. I bought quite a number of art pieces from you for Christmas presents and they all arrived on time and in very good condition. I was a bit concerned about what the art would actually look like close up after only seeing a photograph of the work, but I have not been disappointed with any of my paintings. I love the silver silver moon painting but I would say this piece seems to be a bit pricey, when I compare it to the detailed painting I bought by Stewart Wilson, and Clare Barone. These two were my favourite paintings. My little girl just loves her painting by Clare Barone. Similarly, my husband was very happy with his New York painting by Stewart Wilson. I would also like to mention how pleased my brother was with his drawing of Wolves by Debra Senior, this was a beautiful drawing. Finally, I must also praise. Leslie Lynas for his paintings, I bought 4 of his and think they are very imaginative and great value. I would certainly buy painting from these artisit's again, and will be watching their work with interest. I cannot suggest any improvements for your service as I strongly feel you provide an excellent service. I looked at quite a few websites when I was researching where to buy some paintings and in my opinion yours was by far the best, to be honest I am a little bit addicted!! Kind regards, Kelly Moore.
Ms K.M, Southampton, 11-Jan-2012
'The Old City" by Lesley Lynas
I loved this painting and all the Leslie Lynas work I bought, including Somewhere out there, A Place Far Away 1 & 2. I liked them so much I was sad to give them away!! But my brother loves them who is a big fan of Astronomy. I love his syle and think his paintings are great value for money. I think they are imaginative, and the best paintings on this subject that I have found on the internet. Thank you to Leslie for brightening up our homes.
Ms K.M, Southampton, 10-Jan-2012
"New York Time" by Stewart Wilson
I was most impressed with this painting because the photograph just does not do it justice as to how much detail, colour and life is brought into the painting. I bought it for my Husband and he loves it too.
Ms K.M, Southampton, 10-Jan-2012
"New York Time" by Stewart Wilson

Ms K.M, Southampton, 10-Jan-2012
"Leader of The Pack" by Debra Senior
When I bought this I felt it was a bit expensive for a pastel drawing, but it was the best drawing of wolves on your site I could find and afford. However, I was not dissapointed and thought it was an amazing piece of art. My brother loved it.
Ms K.M, Southampton, 10-Jan-2012
"Spirit Wolf" by Brenda A'Guinn
I was very happy with this painting, I thought it was great value for money. My brother loves wolves and was extremely happy with this present.
Ms. K.M, Southampton, 10-Jan-2012
"Wild Wood" by Ricky Figg
Fantastic. Really pleased with it, and more inportantly, my husdand loves it (it was his Christmas present!). I would love to buy some more pieces from this artist.
This was the first time I have brought art from the internet, but I will definitely do it again.
Ms S.B, Essex, 10-Jan-2012
"Nightwalk" by Ricky Figg
I think Night Walk is a beautiful painting and my wife loved it. We are currently renovating our house and Night Walk will feature in the new look and feel - we can't wait
The process was fine. Only problem was that the art work was send to my neighbour (as this was a present). When it arrived at the house it was addressed directly to them rather than C/O - this caused a bit of confusion but nothing to hectic. You might want to offer a service for people sending stuff as a gift like on Amazon. I find the process of buying paintings over the internet to be perfectly fine. You might want to think about updating your website. It feels fairly old and I'm sure there are technology offerings out there that would make it look and feel more up to date. Also you might want to provide content related to artists we have bought and/or other artists. One thing that really appeals to us is information about the artist. So a sort of newsletter type thing would only help this
My wife is big into buying new artists work. She came across it and the artist himself - Ricky. We both love his stuff.
Mr G.S, Surrey, 10-Jan-2012
"Aladin Tulip" by Russell Lee
Very pleased with what we bought. The design is striking and goes very well with the decor in the room we bought it for2) The artwork arrived amazingly quickly within a couple of days!3) A fun way to look at art within our price range - will definitely be looking again although I had to erestrain my husband from buting more straight away4) Can't think of anything5) We were given a voucher by friends who have used you several times
Ms S.L, Surrey, 10-Jan-2012
"A Snowy Day" by Martin Whittam
I love the art, on time and in perfect condition. I have no probs with online shopping. I wasn't to impressed with the 20 pounds price fluctuation on the second painting. The same size and all but never mind.
Mr P.W, Somerset, 9-Jan-2012
"Highland Cattle" by John Plimott
We like it, specifically wanted this subject
Yes it was delivered in perfect time and in good condition. Happy to upto say £500 - above this I probably would want to view it first unless I knew the dealer
It came in a very basic frame - it would have been nice to be able to have chosen a more suitable frame for us - even if at an additional cost
Mr M.B, Cheshire, 9-Jan-2012
"The Strand (London)' by Keith McBride
very good. Bought it as gift and
husband was thrilled. Yes. I asked
for quick delivery due to christmas and wonderful service. I like it as time to look. with 2 small children impossible to get to galleries
4. Are there any aspects of our service we could improve? some search
elements...inclduing search by name
Ms. C.D, Kent, 9-Jan-2012
"Winter Farm" by Gary Kitchen
I stumbled across your website via a google search, id prefer to veiw work first before buying, lets say from a gallery or art fair but this can be expensive as the dealers usually put the price up to cover their overheads and make a profit. So buying online direct from the artist is cheaper but theres a small element of risk that goes with it. The peice i bought from gary kitchen wouldve been a nice peice accept that when it arrived it was creased and bent from the post, it would of been o lot better to send it in between 2 small peices of board to prevent damage, hope this feedback helps, regards Tony
Mr T.P, Stoke On Trent, 9-Jan-2012
"Waterlily 1" by Penny Atkins
The Art work I bought was fantastic
It was delivered quickly and was packaged well and arrived in perfect condition with a Christmas card from the artist which was a nice personal touch
It is the first time that I have bought art over the internet and I would do it again
I do not feel there are any aspects to improve, the site was good, plus when I phoned the person I spoke to was extremely nice and gave me good information, and it was nice to be able to speak to someone regarding the purchase
I found the site by doing a Google search
Ms E.B, Herefordshire, 9-Jan-2012
"The Yellow Beach Brolly" by David Fright
I love this piece. It's fun, cheery, and playful. My wife thought it was great.
Perfect condition. Well packaged.
This was my first time. I will do it again.
No. The art arrived as advertised, in pristine condition, and very very quickly.
I googled "Buy art online uk". The site seemed reputable. I really liked the layout + UI.
Mr M.S, London, 9-Jan-2012
"Song Thrush On Rowan" by Eric Hatrell
Very pleased with picture. Received v quickly. Artist followed up with charming note and replacement for original as seemingly the wrong one despatched. Would buy from artist again. Thank you.
Ms M.A, Devon, 9-Jan-2012
"Tutti Frutti" by Henri Cabot
Its Great!
Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. It handy buying over the internet!
Ms E.C, Derby, 9-Jan-2012
"Autumn Gatherer" by Josephine Grundy
Having just purchased Winter fields from Jo Grundy, another of her fantastic artworks arrived on Art Gallery called Autumn gatherer - one look and I had to have it bringing my purchases from Jo to 4! Another stunning country scene this time of the autumn months with amazing hedgerow with a thrush holding a berry (red bead)in it's mouth panning out to fields and in the distance a lovely country cottage. Again, I was blown away by such beautiful creativity and attention to detail. I am a country bumpkin at heart and Jo's portrayal of the countryside evokes that feeling you get there. I absolutely love it and hope I can fill my house with her art purchasing as and when they come on the market. Again, wrapped so no possible damage could befall it and arrived on time. The art gives me great happiness so thank you.
Ms N.P, Stoke on Trent, 8-Jan-2012
"Barn Owl" by Susan McCloughton
I was very pleased with my painting, it was a Christmas gift for my husband and he totally loved it.
It arrived well on time and in perfect condition and the picture online was an excellent representation of the real item.
I would buy a painting online again and would use the Art Gallery website again as I found it easy to use and the service was excellent with regular email updates as to the status of my order.I just found this website by Google.
Ms. L A M, Douglas, 8-Jan-2012
"Winter Feilds" by Jo Grundy
Winter fields is my 3rd purchase from the very talented and unique Jo Grundy. It is the most beautiful picture - a snowy countryside scene with amazing detail using beads, string, glitter etc, strategically placed on the painted canvas to highlight eg berries. I was lucky to purchase this within 2 hours of it coming on the market, and I would have been very upset if I had missed it! Attention to detail is beyond perfect. I do not know of any other artist that comes close to her style and creativity. She is by far my favourite artist. The artwork arrived unable to have been damaged in any way as Jo used a hugh amount of bubble wrap(!!) so it arrived in perfect condition, and on time. Thank you Jo. I love it.
Ms N.P, Surrey, 8-Jan-2012
"Evening Hours" by Deborah Norville
The picture is perfect better than I imagined.
It arrived in perfect condition and in plenty of time. Both me and my partner have bought art from your website several times now and we are more than happy with the service provided.
I look forward to buying more art from you in the future.
Ms K.W, Manchester, 7-Jan-2012
Thames Barge by Eric Hattrell
"Hello, loved the picture of the barge! Art delivered quickly.
As a website wish you would break up different types of art more to enable one to more quickly find the subject. Style or medium they have (if) in mind.
Other than that your website (online) is a good way to buy art if insufficient time to trawl galleries, sheer volume of art found in one easy place or looking for a 'perceived' bargain/affordable."
Ms M.A., Totnes, Devon, 7-Jan-2012
"Winter Walk At Dusk" by Marc Riley
Picture was just as I imagined and saw on the website, delivered in in
perfect condition, well presented and packaged ready to hang. Have no
qualms about buying on the Internet and have already ordered more.
Found you buy surfing web looking for art galleries as I wanted something
more original rather mass produced paintings.

"Beautiful Hare" by Mary Schofield
Fantastic, just as seen on the webpage. Delivered really quickly and in excellent condition/secure
packaging. I'd never tried buying art over the internet before and was apprehensive, but needed last-minute Christmas presents. Would definitely
do it again. Search facilities on the webpage could probably be improved.
Ms J.S, London, 6-Jan-2012
Green Eyes by Sarah Little
"I think the Artwork was AMAZING. The great thing about your site was the fact that there was so much that there's definitely something for everyone!
My Artwork arrived in pristine condition and I was thrilled to see it in the flesh.
As I said the site was brilliant and I couldn't fault you on anything. The narrowing of the search was a massive help as I'm only keen on the medium of pencil.
I discovered your site from typing 'orginal artwork' into Google. The diversity in price was brilliant as well as the lower bounds are the only thing I could really afford as a kid still at school!
My compliments are sent to you in every form of the word and I hope to (When sufficient funds come my way) trawl your site once more and find something just as brilliant to hang on my wall!
Thank you
Kind Regards

"Vines" by John Curtis
Great! it was a present for my partner and he loves it! I collected it myself as wanted it in time for Christmas although artist did offer to deliver it to me in person. Was in very good condition.
I have never bought before, only bought this time over internet as had seen artist work displayed somewhere before. Might consider buying over internet again though.
None, very happy with service received

"Winter Reflections" by Paula Oakley
I've had the painting Winter
Reflections now for 3 weeks.I was drawn to the picture through your
e-mail information on new works by paula.I knew instantly that I had to
buy it.The wave movement in the foreground and the winter sun reflecting in the distant water are excellent.The picture was delivered safely and quickly even though it was
Christmas and no doubt there was a rush on.
I have found that purchasing art work through your company is always easy to navigate.The delivery is always efficient and safe.
posting information on art price reductions to e-mail addresses may be of advantage as there is a recession at the moment and art purchases
may be pushed down the list of priorities.
Many thanks and kindly pass on my regards to Paula as I am an admirer
of her excellent work.
Mr R.M, Derbyshire, 5-Jan-2012
"Red Macks iI" by Gill Masters
Great!
Yes - well wrapped
Only issue is that the colour is a bit different so can imagine that may not always work.
Mr N.D, London, 4-Jan-2012
"Eternal Love" by Tracy Jolly
The artwork is fantastic, perfect for the space, vibrant and a pleasure to look at.
No issues, I have bought artwork from another site in the not too distant past.
None that come to mind, the information provided for each piece makes decision making much easier.
Mr G.C, Staffordshire, 4-Jan-2012
"Good Day Sunshine" by Chris Elsden
It was a present chosen from a shortlist - not to my personal taste but the recipient was delighted
No problems at all with the delivery and the picture was in perfect condition
There were no concerns about buying this piece of art over the Internet
I have no complaints about any aspect of your service and I was given the website address by a friend

The painting from Katy Wilkinson arrived promptly and in perfect condition; this is the first time I have bought art over the internet and was low risk as it was not an expensive piece, but based on this experience I would certainly consider doing so again. I found your website through Google.
I am very pleased with Katy's painting and with her swift and helpful reply to the questions I emailed before deciding to buy.

"Dream A Little Dream" by Deborah Norville
'We purchased the oil painting 'Dream a Little Dream' as a wedding gift for ourselves and we are absolutely delighted with our purchase. The painting is wonderfully executed and the colours are stunning. It's romantic theme will remind us of our special day and those lovely friends who allowed us to choose such a unique gift by giving us art vouchers as a wedding present. A really lovely touch was a card from the artist herself with a personalised message which we will treasure. Thank you Deborah. The Taylors.
Ms. A.T, Oxford, 3-Jan-2012
"Two Red Tulips" by Natalie Toplass
'We purchased the limited edition print 'Two Red Tulips' by Natalie Toplass as a wedding gift for ourselves and we are absolutely delighted with our purchase. The print is stunning and has wonderful depth (we only wish we had been able to purchase the original!). It is a lovely print that will remind us of our special day and those lovely friends who allowed us to choose such a unique gift by giving us art vouchers as a wedding present. Thank you. The Taylors.
Ms A.T., Oxford, 3-Jan-2012
'I Love You Mum" by Debra Senior
Artwork fabulous as always ... my fiancee loved this piece which was his Christmas present this year. It arrived on the date promised and was in perfect condition. I think we will be asking for "Artgallery" gift vouchers on our wedding list so we can add to the art already hanging on the walls in our home :o)
Ms H.G, Leicestershire, 3-Jan-2012
"Longbeach" by Mike Shenton
Generally very pleased with it. The only query I did have was that the description online said 'Media: acrylic and ink' whereas the certificate that came said that it was an original print (presumably this is the ink?). The word acrylic had made me think that it was a painting and not a print.
Yes, delivered very quick and perfect condition.
Quick, easy and I quite liked being able to look for a picture I liked, find the artist and then browse by that particular artist.
Mr C.W, Cleckheaton, 3-Jan-2012
"Westminster" by Aisha Haider
The artwork did not arrive but this was royal mail's fault and you dealt with the refund and subsequent enquiries very well.
I have bought another artwork from you by Juan Sly and this arrived quickly and was a great bit of art.
Ms. A.W, London, 2-Jan-2012
"Black Piano (Commission)" by Zhana Veil
I am extremely please with the painting. This was my first commissioned work and I could not be more pleased. The painting was delivered timely and in perfect condition.
Initially I had reservations, but the good experience I've had with your company has changed my perspective. I googled art on line and expected to receive a list of galleries. Instead, it listed a series of on line galleries. I looked at several sites and found your site very interesting.
Ms. L. S, Monaco, 2-Jan-2012
"Nest In a Teacup" by Natalie Rymer
I bought this one for my sister as a Christmas present. She was absolutely delighted with it. She loves the whole "Shabby Chic" thing and this fitted perfectly. It was wrapped very carefully and Natalie had included a certificate and a wee note. I feel totally happy buying through ArtGallery as items always arrive very quickly and what you see on the site is a good representation of what you are buying.
Thanks,
Mr K.R, Bristol, 1-Jan-2012
"On The Waterfront" by Andy Mercer
I like it. It is representative of the images on the website - the only thing I would say is that the depth and lustre of any image does not come out in the pictures on the website which is a bit of risk to the buyer. I am fairly confident in my taste and ability to select good pieces from the website. I have only bought 2 pictures - delivery on the first one was a problem - the package when it finally arrived had been battered around a bit - the artwork could have been smudged through this or it may have been there already - this was a charcoal drawing.
Ms A.H, Ontario, Canada, 1-Jan-2012
"Hens On a Winters Day" by Natalie Rymer
The picture that was purchased was very good and was a good comparison to how it looked on the website, however the size of the image quated was not the actual size of the painted image (but was that of the paper it was painted on) nothing in the details explained this (this luckily wasnt of a problem for me on this occasion)
2 The packaging it arrived in was perfectly adequate and it arrived very promptly
3 This is the first time i have purched art from the internet, the details mentioned earlier (1) could be a problem if not rectified
A good website, being able to skip through pages (with there being so many) could be enabled
Mr K.O, , 30-Dec-2011
"Summer Breeze" by Amanda Dagg
Love it!
2.Yes to both. Wouldn't do it unless I see the original first. Googled Amanda Dagg after seeing the painting on display in Malvern
theatre
Mr D.C, Midlands, 30-Dec-2011
"The Brummy Dragon" by Stewart Wilson
We are very happy with The Brummy Dragon. I love the colours and texture of the artwork and the online picture doesn’t do it justice! I’m originally from Birmingham so it’s great to have a fabulous piece of artwork which also reminds me of home. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. At first I was a bit worried about buying a piece of original art over the internet and this is the first time I have done so but when it arrived both my partner and I were very impressed with the quality of the work. The painting looks great in our dining room and I will certainly be buying artwork from your website again and would have no hesitation recommending a piece of Stuart Wilson’s art.
I found the ArtGallery website through a Google search. I think your website is great and I really like the fact I didn’t have to pay an extra for delivery and didn’t have a long wait to receive the painting. I think it would be good though to include an option on your site to search for artwork that buyers have rated ‘suberb’.
Best wishes & Happy New Year
Ms L.C, East Sussex, 30-Dec-2011
"Sherbet" by John Curtis
Extremely good.
Delivery was fast and arrived beautifully wrapped. It's not probably something I would necessarily do but this was a request from my son who has bought from you previously and been very happy. Not receiving three different invoices after I have paid would be nice!
M D.S, Oxfordshire, 29-Dec-2011
"Himalayan Poppies" by Amanda Dagg
The himalayan poppies were a lovely christmas present , it was well packaged and excellent condition. I wasnt sure about buying art over the internet, but it was very easy and eveything was as it should be and I will definately buy again. The art gallery website was a great find for me and even the artist emailed to say thank you.
Ms C.M, Argyll, 29-Dec-2011
"St Pauls Skyline" by Patricia Clements
I am very satisfied with it. The artwork was delivered in good condition and on time. If the choice is good I am happy to consider buying over the internet again.
Mr N.C, London, 29-Dec-2011
"Letters in The Rain" by Pete Rumey
It's great, thanks. Delivered in perfect condition
I like buying over the internet as there is so much more choice
I feel that you could improve the search for artwork facility by genre/ theme
I found you in a newspaper article
Mr L.G, Norway, 28-Dec-2011
"Polperro Harbour" by Jan Rippingham
Thank you for the opportunity to give feedback.
I bought two pictures. Both were lovely paintings and we were really pleased with them. Deliveries arrived in good time, but one of the paintings (sent by the artist and the first to arrive) arrived damaged. It had been bent in the post and the mount had to be replaced. Ideally it should have had stronger packaging. The second to arrive was in perfect condition.
We had no problems with ordering over the Internet, the service was good and we would certainly do it again.
We have ordered artwork from you before and probably will do again.
Ms. C.F, Berkshire, 28-Dec-2011
"Nest in a Tea Cup" by Natalie Rymer
The picture arrived well packaged and delivery was quick. The picture itself is of very good quality and it looks better in real life. I have since purchased another picture from the same artist and I have not been disappointed. I am currently renovating my house and I won't hesitate to use the art gallery again. Thank you.
Mr M.G, Kent, 23-Dec-2011
"Hong Kong Harbour" by Ann Pearson
I love it , very happy. We have used your site 3 times now (2 different artists) and been very happy each time.
Ms E.E, Surrey, 22-Dec-2011
"Levers Water Brim Fell in Winter" by Simon Fife
Hello thanks very much for the art work which was delivered as promised in perfect condition,the one thing i would like is for the art tp be framed,im sure this would be much appreciated.Thank you so much i shall be using youe company again
Ms J.S, Lancashire, 22-Dec-2011
"Rocky Beach 2" by Allen Gould
Artwork is great - love the picture . Only comment I have is that some part of the sides of the box were left unpainted but that is not very noticeable. The artwork was delivered in time. However the packaging was very very flimsy, just brown paper and the frame is crooked. I have sent an email and it was suggested to knock the wedges in place which helped a little. The actual wood of the frame is slightly bend so it might need a new frame.
I am happy about the work and the website is very helpful - one can get a good impression of the art from the website. The experience with the condition of the packaging and framework has left me a bit doubtful to buy again. It is a present for my husband for christmas and there has not been the time to look at the framework properly. Extended warranty of a few weeks over the Christmas period would be good.
Ms C.C, Peterborough, 22-Dec-2011
"Black Cat 3" by Paula Horsley
I love it. She had done one of these previously and I waited so long to make a decision on it, that it sold! When this one came on sale, I bought it straight away. the textures on it are just lovely.
Yes, everything was perfect. Very well wrapped and arrived very fast.
It's great. This is my second piece of art bought from yourselves and I think that the pieces are represented very well on your website.
Ms K.H, West Midlands, 22-Dec-2011
"The Tree of Joy in the Rainbow Sky" by Casimera Mostyn
Picture was not damaged even though the outer cover was badly torn.
Buying art over the internet is acceptable providing you have secure return rights. I have purchased poorly described tat from elsewhere. One painting was so poor that the local recycling site refused it for their sale hut.
Your service is excellent. Your site was found through Google. Keep up the good work.
Mr F.R, Hampshire, 20-Dec-2011
"Bourton On the Water" by David Oatley
The art work was delivered in tim and in perfect condition. I enjoy using your online service and will continue to do so.
The artwork was as described but when it arrived I realised that I had selected the wrong option, as I am sure that there was an original of the same item that I intended to but and i have bought a poster. It was for a gift so not suitable and I wouldn't usually pay £30 for a poster, though I would pay much more for an original. That was my mistake though. I do not know your returns policy and it does not seem to be straight forward so that is an improvement that you could consider.
Everything else is great though so thank you for that.
Have a great Christmas
Ms E.D, Abingdon, Oxfordshire, 20-Dec-2011
Pencil Nude 13 by Steve Jones
The artwork is beautiful. I hope my husband thinks so too, when he gets it as a present on Christmas day. I have had it framed.
Yes it arrived on time and in perfect condition.
This was my first experience of buying art work over the internet, and I will do so again. In fact I have been recommending you site to others.
I have just clicked the facebook button on your site and given a recommendation.
I can't remember - probably google search
Ms. R.V, Milton Keynes, 20-Dec-2011
"Summertime" by Deborah Norville
Love it! Bright, bold, great texture and looks really great hung in my dinning room
Yes, and with a lovely personal note from the artist, which was a nice touch.
I think it is a great idea as long as the purchase includes free delivery and no quibble returns. It would take me years to visit all the art galleries to view the same number of pieces as I did online. No, think you did a great job, and yours was the best online store I visited. We;ll done!!
Ms A.E, Southampton, 18-Dec-2011
"Happiness" by Jean Tatton Jones
Fanstastic, it is a wonderfully bright beautiful depiction of a tree. It goes extremely well with two other art works we purchased before, both by Jean Tatton-Jones of trees.
Yes, as expected. No problems at all.
I have been purchasing items (art works, gifts, food, etc) for the last 7 years or so, never without any problems. Will continue to do so.
Your website is easy to use, and order from. Not sure that many people know about it - I seemed to stumble upon it a few years ago.
Perhaps you could link in with Amazon?
Mr. S.O, Pluckley, Kent, 17-Dec-2011
"Elegant Pink - Nudes Gallery" by Carmen Tyrrell
Very good a one off piece
It was my first time bt would buy over internet again. The certificate could have been greatly improved as on a better quality of paper or a lot higher standard, as anyone could have produced it on the computer
Ms. K.L, Holywood, Down, 17-Dec-2011
"Elegant Pink" by Carmen Tyrell
Very good a one off piece

"Black 5's" by Richard Picton
FANTASTIC!
Mr D.K, Farnham, Kent, 16-Dec-2011
"A Romantic Walk in the Woods After the Rain Has Gone" by Casimira Mostyn
I love the art work - it looks far better in 'real life' than the website. Item was delivered in perfect condition. This is the first time I have bought art over the internet and I was a little nervous to be honest. No, I don't think the service could be improved
Ms. L.C, Stockport, Cheshire, 15-Dec-2011
"Homeward Bound" by Ken White
The artwork, service, and ease of purchasing was brilliant. Thank you for your service. I will definitely be ordering again.
Ms R.A, North Petherton, Somerset, 15-Dec-2011
"I Want To Be A Dancer" by Mike Bradshaw
I think the picture I bought is super
On time and perfect condition
Fine although risky ensuring colours right, also most pictures look better when reduced. I have bought before and know what to avoid.
Would have been impressed if you had reminded in time that garantee period coming to an end rather than sending a quiz when deadline elapsed.
Ms N.M, Thurstaston, Wirral, 14-Dec-2011
"The Secret Field" by Tracey Unwin
I love Tracy Unwin's work. I like it slightly less than the last one I bought, but I still like it a lot.
I think she is a talented artist and shall likely continue to buy her work.
It arrived in good time and in perfect condition.
I shall continue to use your website as I like to discover fresh artists and it is a hugely convenient way of buying art... which I would not get around to doing if I was to rely on seeing something in a gallery... which I never get around to visiting in any case.
Ms. A.M.L, London, 13-Dec-2011
"Avocet : Frieston Shore" by Jess Fuller
I am very pleased with my painting.
It was delivered very quickly, well packaged and in perfect condition.
Normally I would prefer to see a painting first, but I had seen a print of
this and decided to buy the original. As long as there is plenty of
information about the artist, medium, size etc buying over the internet is
fine. Excellent service. Found out about the website when enquiring about the painting directly with Jess Fuller.
Mr G.B, Southport, Lancashire, 12-Dec-2011
"One Fine Day" by Chris Elsden
Excellent!
So far so good with ArtGallery.co.uk. Internet images are mostly OK but it would be good to be able to download a high resolution image.
Mr S.J, Ringwood, 12-Dec-2011
"After The Storm" by Ricky Figg
The artwork is lovely. It arrived in very good time and in perfect condition. I would definately buy from the internet again. I have no worries about your service and I found out about you on Google.
Ms P.W., Dartford, Kent, 10-Dec-2011
"Flower Vase" by Terry Wylde
I love it.
No problem with buying over the internet, I've done it a few times and haven't been disappointed, it gives me access to a wider range of artists at all price points. Can't fault the service.
Mr A.D, Ilford, Essex, 9-Dec-2011
"Autumn Light" by Seonaid Parnell
Extremely pleased with the painting. Artist sent a charming note on a beautiful hand painted card. Lovely touch, thank you.

"Cat Nap" by Natalie Rymer
Just to let you know that the picture arrived well on time today. Please let Natalie know that we are very pleased with the picture and it will make an ideal present for my daughter - then we will have to get some for ourselves.
Mr JC, Maidenhead, 7-Dec-2011
"Harry The Hare" by Kasia Kaldowski
A beautiful piece bought as a Christmas present for a nature lover, very unusual and captures the spirit of the animal perfectly
Mr M.H, Chesham, Berkshire, 6-Dec-2011
'City 1166' by Paul Chambers
I was very surprised with the piece that I bought. Never bought any art online before and the piece exceeded my expectations. Is beautiful and it won't be the last that I buy.
It was delivered on time and in perfect conditions, but I found the delivery company very inflexible; not leting me change day of delivery, the address or anything.
I'm very happy with all the experience.
Mr A.C.C, London, 6-Dec-2011
"Chips by The Bridge" by Scott Henderson
I am very pleased with the artwork and the artist enclosed a note which thanked us for our purchase and gave us a little history of why he had painted it which was really nice. Delivered on time and in perfect condition, would definitely buy from this artist again
Ms S.M, Sale, Cheshire, 6-Dec-2011
'Amyth Landscape' by Carol Wood
We are absolutely delighted with it. This is the 3rd piece of art we have bought from your website. It would be nice to send feedback sooner than now.
Ms H.W.R, Billingshurst, West Sussex, 5-Dec-2011
"Snowy Owl" by Heidi Bjork
Very good - would have been better if mounted
It would be good if you offered a framing service for items that need it.
Mr V.L, Nr. Faversham, Kent, 5-Dec-2011
'Bees' by Kevin Oldham
We think it's very nice but not given to recipient yet!
Mr V.L, Nr. Faversham, Kent, 5-Dec-2011
"On Westminster Bridge" by Keith McBride
Love it! It was for my boyfriend's 40th and he really likes it too.

"A Walk by the River" by Leslie Lynas
Fantastic, everyone comments on the picture. Nervous at first but have been pleased with all my purchases.
Ms M.G, Westerham, Kent, 5-Dec-2011
'Highland Loch Reflections' by Steve Hawthorn
I am extremely pleased with the painting I purchased - in fact it is even
better than I thought. It was delivered very promptly in excellent
condition. I find it marvellous ordering artwork online as I can browse
through so many paintings on your site. I found the site using google
Search and I am so pleased I did.
Ms. M J, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, 5-Dec-2011
"Viaduct Street" by Martin Whittam
Good quality paper, though the colour does not match the one on the website. It arrived on time and in perfect condition. I am confident with the payment system. In future need the dimension of the whole paper rather than just the area of the art work. Bought a picture frame before the artwork arrives which does not fit.
Mr. H M J, Manchester, 5-Dec-2011
"Bubbles" by Paul Burgess
I received both pieces of art, separately but on time, both very well packaged. Paul Burgess definitely deserves his 5 stars. I love them both. This was the first time I had bought art on line but I would definitely use you again and will definitely look out for more of Pauls work. I found your site by chance while searching for the affordable art website!!
Ms. M. T, Colchester, Essex, 5-Dec-2011
"Winter's Here" by Martin Whittam
Fantastic, even nicer close up.
Yes, although the tube was too tight for the picture and consequently the picture was a little creased in places. This is the 2nd time I've bought art in this way but can recommend it.
Ms T.W, Harrogate, North Yorkshire, 2-Dec-2011
"Wild Beach" by Tracey Unwin
Its pretty amazing. I have only had positive experiences from this website
Mr M.L, Chepstow, Gwent, 1-Dec-2011
"Rain at Midnight" by Terry Wilde
Its beautiful, although the subject is rain, it has warmth. It was delivered in perfect time.
It was my first time buying over the internet, no problems so far. I think it would be better to see the paintings in full screen mode
Mr A.D, Ellesmere Port, Cheshire, 1-Dec-2011
"Moulin Rouge 2" by Leslie Lynas
A beautiful painting, very glad to have it in my collection. Excellent price too. All round, top marks! Yes. Well packaged and delivered quickly. Very happy to buy modestly-priced work online. One hazard is that the photography can be so good that the photographs can look better than the works themselves somtimes!
. Are there any aspects of our service we could improve? Add a 'might also like' section to each artwork; take a look at the listing category options, e.g. by different price range categories, their genre options for listings are well chosen .
Mr E. M, Alvaston, Derby, 1-Dec-2011
"VW" by Keith McBride
Very pleased with the art I have brought - popular style and subject
Took a while to arrive - perhaps the artist was on holiday, the next piece from Keith McBride arrived promptly.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 1-Dec-2011
"Ferdinand" by Lucy Watkinson
It's just great, love it! - talented work
Well packaged and received on time.

"Rainbow Cat" by Kasia Kaldowski
Great work, beautiful; glad to own it!
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 1-Dec-2011
"Hare by Moonlight" by Natalie Rymer
I particularly love this piece, great work.
Yes, with Natalie's customary hand-written thank-you and a couple of her printed cards. Again, Natalie, is a talented artist and very appreciative of her buyers - I'm very pleased to own and endorse her paintings.
Mr E.M, Alvaston Derby, 1-Dec-2011
"Friends?" by Kasia Kaldowski
Very keen on it - a quirky and endearing pose!
Mr E.M, Alvaston Derby, 1-Dec-2011
'Wavy Haired Mistress" by Samantha Softley
An arresting, beautiful piece. I like the frame it was delivered in - good idea to frame it. I like the price too. I am sure Samantha has a bright future ahead of her.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 1-Dec-2011
"Lake District Lane" by Stephen Williams
I was utterly thrilled with this painting. It was good beyond what I had expected.
Delivery was in good time and good condition.
I like buying art over the internet.
Ms A.L.M, London, 1-Dec-2011
"Abstract 1135" by Paul Chambers
Very happy with the art, good value and delivered very quickly in good
order; the level of packaging was excellent, the courier would have
needed to work very hard to inflict any sort of damage to the contents.
We found your website after much googling of various sites for this type
of art. We found artgallery.co.uk to offer a good range at affordable
prices.
We have already recommended it to friends.
Mr J. H, Willaston, Cheshire, 1-Dec-2011
"Sailors Warming" by Caroline Ashwood

'Tryptych Sardines Ii" by Gill Masters
As with previous comment.
Happy with the art, but in hindsight the value is not perceived as good
as order items purchased. One of the pitfalls of internet buying!
The level packaging was poor when compared with the other items purchased, especially since this appears to have traveled from deepest France over the period of 2 weeks. There was a significant puncture in the side of the packaging which was noted with the courier. Although,
fortunately there was no damage to the canvas, this was more by luck than by design in my view.
Mr J.H, Willaston, Cheshire, 1-Dec-2011
Three Nudes Dance by Stephen Conroy
"Most people write straight away and state how they feel about the art they have received.
I received this wonderfully vibrant painting from Stephen Conroy six months ago and it brings me joy everyday. I think his work is wonderfully colourful and exciting and I am so pleased two of his paintings are now on my walls. Also I cannot praise enough the reliable and friendly service that
Artgallery.co.uk has provided each time I have bought a painting. I do hope you are well and coping with what I hope is a busy time of year
for you. We would have liked to have come to Manchester to see you."
C.P, Northamptonshire , 30-Nov-2011
Ink Paintings various by Josh M Paul
"I received all these pieces by Josh M Paul in good condition and by the other artists as well. It was only the Iranian artist pieces I was waiting on. Once she comes back I'll look at her work again.
Thanks for keeping me informed. Very happy to have found your website, some great artists!"
J.K, London, 29-Nov-2011
Goosey Goosey by Seonaid Parnell
"We absolutely love it! Delivered right on time and in great/ perfect condition with a certificate. I love shopping on the internet but this was the first piece of art I've bought online and I'm planning on doing it again. Think it's fab."
C.M, London, 29-Nov-2011
Poppy Fields by Tracey Unwin
"I am utterly delighted with the painting.
It was delivered in good time and the packaging was first rate. So far so good for buying art over the internet. I like your service - no changes required."
A.L, London, 28-Nov-2011
Cold Ocean Light by Tracey Unwin
"Loved the art I bought. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Buying art over the internet is good when you're not spending too much money - anything that was more expensive I would probably want to see first unless I knew the artist's work. I found the site when I was looking for another artist's work."
A.K, Surrey, 28-Nov-2011
Always by Karen Smith; Her Dream by Carmen Tyrrell & Falling Leaves by Deborah Norville
"Thank you, the artwork I bought over past few weeks 3 pieces in total are perfect, arrived on time and very very well protected/packaged. I
especially liked the hand written card that came with 'fallen leaves'. I would definitely shop here again, I enjoy buying of the website, very happy
with all aspects of my 3 purchases. Look forward to shopping again, enjoy updates from artists also."
B.T, Oxfordshire , 28-Nov-2011
Bare Essentials by Jeanette Vivers
"Bought as a gift for my wife who loved it. Delivered on time and in perfect condition. Will definitely buy art over the internet again. Would like to see larger works of art on offer."
M.H, Essex, 26-Nov-2011
Oriental Wishing Tree 2 by Katy Wilkinson
"The Oriental Wishing Tree looks pretty spectacular on the wall. It arrived quicker than I was expecting in perfect condition. I was previously quite sceptical about buying over the internet. However, having found that a nice piece of work that you find on the internet can be even better in real life, and with the possiblity of returning a piece if it does not fit into your home, I am converted. Nothing to improve in this case. It may possibly help if you could see more of the pieces of art from different angles on the website."
M.L, Gwent , 25-Nov-2011
Sunset Love by Adeniyi Adeyi
"Thankyou yet again, I love this piece of original art, it is now hanging pride of place, I love the work of this artist and would hope to purchase another one in the future, thanks again."
D.H, Bridgend , 23-Nov-2011
Jurassic by Stella Dunkley
"I am thrilled with the artwork! I looked at it many times on your site and was dubious about making a £400 purchase without actually seeing the size and colours. However the representation is true, I am enjoying it immensely and will do for years to come. The delivery was a little hit and miss!! I was asked what day I would like
delivery, it actually arrived several days later. In fact it was delivered to an address half a mile away which bore no resemblance to my address, and was left on the porch of a terrace house. Kindly, the lady drove over to my house when she got home from work, luckily the parcel was still there. There was no indication when it had been left. The outer cardboard packaging had a
12 inch gash, but fortunately the picture had several other layers of protection and was intact.
It is the first time I have bought art over the internet and the purchasing process was easy. My initial choice was not forthcoming but was quickly
dealt with by yourselves and resolved. I really enjoyed browsing the gallery online and making a short list of my favourites, having time to revisit and confirm my choices with myself. Very impressed with your service and I will buy from you again. I searched for affordable art, you were the first site listed. None of the other sites were as easy to look at by category."

"A very eye-catching piece of art and very much talking point. I'm very pleased with it and delivery as always was very good. This is the 6th painting I have bought from artgallery.co.uk (filling the walls in my new house) and have always been impressed with both the artwork and service. Thanks again."

Green Camper Van by Nina Harris
"This was returned and the money refunded to my account. Nevertheless, I have been very pleased with what I've bought from artgallery so far. It has always been delivered on time and, with the exception of work from one artist (also refunded), well packaged and in perfect condition. The efficiency of your company, and your refund policy takes the fear out of buying art over the internet; you also have an excellent website - simple, striking,easy to use, with detailed descriptions and photos of the art works. I couldn't fault your service so far, so have no suggestions for improvement. Well, perhaps a way of posting comments for a particular artist (unless you already have this and I've just missed it). I'd like to be able to tell some of the artists how much their works are being enjoyed, especially those who have added a little note to say thank you for the sale - a nice, personal touch. I'd particularly appreciate it if you could pass on to Natalie Rymer how much I like her work (though she's probably gathered that from my repeat purchases!)."
J.K, Oxon , 22-Nov-2011
Oceanic 3 by Sharon Deegan
"Good quality and accurately described on your website. I am happy to buy over the net though would prefer an opportunity to see the artwork in person first. Overall service is a very high standard; whilst I appreciate the difficulty to have a London based gallery from a cost perspective I think a small London gallery would help your business grow rapidly; the battersea affordable art fair demonstrates just how popular these things have become in central London, where there is demand for authentic artwork and where there is a high concentration of high earning individuals who are happy to invest in artwork. It would also raise customer awareness for your site."
R.P, Essex, 21-Nov-2011
Pink Confection byRachel McCullock
"Lovely picture - true to image shown on internet. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. It was very easy - liked that you could sample picture in a room and no delivery charge. On the search facility include a drop down menu to be able to search for art in particular colours - this is available on other art sites and is very useful if you are looking for art to suit a colour scheme."
K.W, Worcestershire , 19-Nov-2011
Summer Colour, Hillside 1 and Sartfell by Bryony Harrison; Keep 'em Peeled by Steve Driver;

Waiting by Demi Lang
"Very pleased thank you. Obviously you have to review images provided really carefully - its extra
useful to have more than one view - but buying online allows you to review large numbers of works and apply search criteria to make sure you get the best art you can afford."
M.T, Durham, 16-Nov-2011
Tweedy the Clown by Monty Toms
"Love the picture. Tweedy is our son and it is a very good likeness. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. We saw it on my son's facebook page with a link to the gallery. He stays in Cirencester and I think a friend had seen it at Tetbury. 52 people said they liked it. Tweedy was very pleased when we told him we had bought it."
A.D, Aberdeen, 16-Nov-2011
The Magic Vase by David Moore
"The painting is very nice and true to the image on the website. It is for a nursery and looks lovely. It was delivered promptly and in perfect
condition even though its destination was outside the UK. I was reluctant to purchase art over the internet but was happily surprised when I received
the painting."
Anon, France , 16-Nov-2011
"Fiire and Water" by Tony Badden
I thought for 85 pounds it was cheap enough to hang in bathroom. It is less crisp than I would have liked but what do you expect for that price.
Delivery excellent. It is convenient. I get to view a lot more in a short space of time. I also think it is cheaper. I buy a lot on the Internet buying art us a natural progression for me. Think what you offer is fine. I particularly like the search engine
Ms K.J, Chingford, London, 16-Nov-2011
"Waiting" by Demi Lang
Very pleased thank you, obviously you have to review images provided really carefully - its extra useful to have more than one view - but buying online allows you to review large numbers of works and apply search criteria to make sure you get the best art you can afford.

"Murky" by Hester Coetzee
Love it. Yes the painting was packaged well.
I feel confident buying over the internet - only thing is the photography can look better than the real thing. The best I've seen at what you do. Much better value than at other art gallery websites.
I Googled seach for cheap, low-cost ot bargain art.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 14-Nov-2011
"Camper Van" by Keith McBride
Really like the piece. Keith s fortunate (or sensible)to have a populist style that sells well. It's perfectly possible to be a superb artist focusing on subject matters &/or styles of little interest to buyers.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 14-Nov-2011
"Bird" by Natalie Rymer
I love Natalie's work - she's one of my favourite artists, even if some of her subject matter is a little querky, or else not what I go for. I'm sure I'll buy her work again. I've been a little envious of late because a couple of her pieces were snapped up before I'd got the chance! She's very appreciative of her buyers, and that's nice too.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 14-Nov-2011
"Barrow" by Tim Gilpin
An unusual piece from a popular artist. I like it and I'm glad to own it.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 14-Nov-2011
"Tower Bridge" by Agnieszka Smigielska
Love the work - subject matter will always be popular and it is well executed.
Was the artwork delivered on time and in perfect condition? No. Slight crease from the work being bent. Packaging needs to improve - too flimsy. This would not have happened if the paintings had been packages by many of her fellow artists.
Mr E.M, Alvaston, Derby, 14-Nov-2011
"Tower of London" by Agnieszka Smigielska
Am a real fan of much of her work but it arrived with a slight crease from the work being bent. Packaging needs to improve - too flimsy.

"Big Ben" by Keith McBride
The artwork that I have brought is excellent. Yes it was delivered in perfect time. I am still little cautious about buying over the internet 4. Always room for improvement

"Red Phonebox" by Keith McBride

Mr S.G, Dunmow, Essex, 11-Nov-2011
"Amaryllis" by Caroline Ashwood
We are very happy with the artwork that we have brought. The delivery took 3 attempts, but that was due to no one being available to sign. Despite 3 trips in the delivery van, the picture was intact! I feel a little cautious - as colour can be difficult to match on line, but the colours proved to pretty accurate, and the returns policy enables you to buy with more confidence that you can return if it is unsuitable.
Improvements, more options to narrow search - eg by colour as the art is often to fit in with a particular room scheme
Ms D F, Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, 11-Nov-2011
Waiting for You by Joanna Beal
"I am very impressed with the print that I bought. I like the style, the size, and the colours used. I'd like to have bought the original but
couldn't afford it! The artwork was not delivered on time. It arrived a week after I was told it would be delivered, due to collection problems. The artwork arrived in perfect condition, but the actual packaging seemed amateurish and the box was squashed and slightly broken at one end. I am happy to buy art work over the internet. I saw an advert on Facebook for the artwork that I bought. As I liked the artwork, the advert immediately grabbed my attention, and I
followed the link to investigate further."
S.S, Hampshire , 10-Nov-2011
Abstract 1129 by Paul Chambers
The art I bought was for a presant for my partner who has bought several paintings from you before, I was very impressed with them - that is how I found out about your web site. The art was delivered by you on time and in perfect condition on the day I asked for. I am not too keen on buying things on the internet that is why I phoned to place the order which I was very pleased to be able to do and the lady who took my order was very helpful. As far as I am concerned I dont think you could do any thing to improve your service. May i take this opportunity to say many
thanks!
Ms A H, Newthorpe, Nottinghamshire, 9-Nov-2011

Second piece we have bought from this artist (sixth from you) and very happy with it. Low cost means we can experiment with differant styles, artists and subject matter with little risk. We are big fans of the site.

"Born a Champion" by Lee Proctor
I write to you to give praise for the service and speed of delivery, and to
express my love with my new painting.
My piece born a champion is stunning and at such a reasonable price, even
for a new artist.
I will definitely be purchasing again from the same artist and many more, i
have already recieved comments and praise about the art and questions on
where i purchased it.
I have recommended your web sight and feel blessed and lucky to
have came across it while searching for art online.

Poppy by Terry Wylde
Dear Aileen,
I did actually send The art gallery an e mail to say that I was very pleased with my picture .
It arrived promptly ,and in good condition .
I really like the painting & it looks lovely in my sitting room , I just came upon The art gallery by chance -I 'd been looking for pictures in shops but hadn't seen anything I liked .
I therefore googled'buying art online '
I would definitely recommend the art gallery to friends
Mr G K, Gurnsey, 4-Nov-2011
"Ghost of War" by Spencer John Derry
I received art, ghosts of war, in mint condition, i am in the process of looking for an appropriate frame, your service is next to none .It is nice to own a piece of original art from Spencer, as i am aware that he has some very famous collectors.The reason i purchased this piece, is that it is very thought provoking and makes us remind ourselves how important it is to live your life to the full each day, many thanks, best wishes ,Darrel Hier.x
Mr D H, Bridgend, South Wales, 4-Nov-2011
"Mega City Abstract Buildings 2817" by Eric Aristidou
I love it. The artist is very talented and I would definitely buy more of their work. It is in pride of place above the fireplace and brings the whole colour theme of the room together. It is the first thing people notice when they walk in and everyone gives positive comments about it. I thought it was good value for money and is very high quality.
Yes, delivered in good time and very well packaged.
Was a little aprehensive when i first started looking to buy online. But after finding this artwork on your website I was pretty confident of what I was buying - the details available for this painting, sizing, the photos from different angles along with a good description of the technique used and general look and finish were spot on. It was totally as described...only better! As long as other artwork had such good detail i would not be concerned about buying online again.
Making sure that as many artworks as possible have such a good description as above. Maybe adding comments alongside artists and/or their previously sold art from satisfied customers. Loyalty benefits for regular customers. Seasonal sales. Annual physical gallery event.
Ms. K C, High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, 4-Nov-2011
Web of Leaves Diptych: Commission" by Cyndy Smyth
The colours first attracted me to this piece of artwork but when I received it I was amazed at all the detail Cyndy has put into it and the fantastic results it really is a 'work of art', I just love it, it's truly amazing what a talent. It is admired by so many. I was given a date when I could expect the artwork and it was delivered on time, very well wrapped and protected and arrived in perfect condition.
I was a little nervous about buying original art over the internet but you have so much protection, with the 14 days grace, that now I have done it once I would do it again.
This was my first experience of dealing with Art Gallery and I was looked after from the minute I placed the order through to the end of my 14
days grace. I can't think of anything I would do it improve the service.
Ms B.S, Chorleywood, Herts, 3-Nov-2011
"The West Pier" by Thomas Mullaly
It was a gift (to daughter & son-in-law) and haven't seent it, but recipients were thrilled. Delivered on time and in good condition
I was worried, but now wouldn't hesitate to do so again as daughter assures me image of painting on website was an accurate reflection of
piece. Intend to buy for ourselves next.
When searching for a piece of art, I was looking for artwork by an artist local to Brighton and depicting an aspect of Brighton. The search facility made this easy.
Ms. C. G, Hove ,East Sussex, 2-Nov-2011
"Venice Canal" by Ann Pearson
It's fabulous , amazing value for money. It's a great way to buy becuase of the massive choice available
You might consider offering a framing service in the future. I was looking for Ann Pearson specifically on the internet and came accross your website. I've already recommended it to friends.
Mr P.P, Chelmsford, Essex, 2-Nov-2011
"Autumn River" by Bernard Roberts
"Across The River" by Bernard Roberts
"The River Bank" by Deborah Norville
I found ArtGalley.co.uk from a Google search. The site was very easy to
use, and although I was a little apprehensive about buying Art work online
(just in case the art wasn't quite what I'd expected) I have loved all three
of the paintings I have purchased so far. I don't know how I would feel about returning art work though if I didn't like it upon receipt. I wouldn't want to insult the artist!
The artwork ordered was delivered quickly and was well packed. Another painting we ordered did not arrive, but ArtGallery.co.uk gave us a speedy refund and a discount off our next order, they also said that the artist had now been removed from the site, so I am very impressed with the customer service.
With regard to the paintings SBN 52443 Across the Lake and also SBN 52444 Autumn River we are really pleased with the paintings. They are both lovely and look even better now they have been framed and are hanging on our wall.
I would definitely use the site again and would recommend it to friends. All in all a stress free purchase.
I'd also like to add that today we received SBN 57359 The River Bank. The artist sent a little thank you card with it which was a lovely thought. Also the painting is beautiful, again we are really pleased and it is already hanging on the wall. My husband said it was very well packed, and we couldn't be happier.
Ms. A C, Maidstone, Kent, 2-Nov-2011
"Poppies 1" by Tonia Spoor
The artwork is very nice and was delivered on-time but bent down the middle - Card was only put in for protection on one-side. I think buying over the internet is a good idea - makes browsing less intimidating
Ms B. H, London, 31-Oct-2011
"Summer Pasture" by Stephen Williams
Arrived in good time and wrapped well
Mr M.N, London, 27-Oct-2011
"Moonlight and Rain" by Terry Wylde
The artwork is exactly suited to my temperament and preferred palette of colours. I like night time scapes, with stars/moon/clouds that are teal/blue/greenish. Artwork was delivered on time and VERY securely packaged! (took me half an hour to carefully open!) I don't mind buying inexpensive art over the internet: I like the idea of owning 'original' pieces of art that are within my price range. Service is good. I stumbled across the website after googling for original but affordable artwork. The pricing is very good on the website
Ms S.P, Paisley, Renfrewshire, 27-Oct-2011
"Music Is Whatever You Make It" by Fay Brennan
The Artwork is very good and was delivered in perfect condition. I feel very comfortable about buying art over the Internet and I have bought in the past from another sites. The service, including this follow-up email, has been excellent. I found the website through a Google search
MR M M, Coventry, 27-Oct-2011
"Up and Under" by Rhian Symes
I am thrilled to bits with the print. I first saw the artist's work in a gallery in Brecon, but did not buy. When I arrived back home from my visit I researched the artist's name via google and found the print that had fascinated me at the gallery on your website. Ordering and delivery were without fault.
Ms A W, Bedford, Bedforshire, 26-Oct-2011
"Sorry Mum", "Watch! 3 in a Row", "Young Love" by Brain Maloy
Three items ordered and received in good condition. Each item in perfect condition for framing. I have no problem with buying art on internet providing it is with reputable gallery like yourselves, who were recommended by a friend. Based on our recent transaction, no necessity to change your service. Many thanks.
Mr D P, Colchester, Essex, 26-Oct-2011
"Beyond The Rock" by Brian Barsby
1I love it and have had positive comments from friends. I have only ever bought from ArtGallery and I am happy to do so. I am very happy with the service, the only thing I think could be improved is the search functionality of the site. I found your site on a Google search.
Mr K S, Bristol, 25-Oct-2011
"Still Life With Apples, Hyacinth Plant and Tea-pot" by Paul Cunningham
Dear Aileen, Thank you for your email. I wasn't sure how the painting would look 'in real life', but it was more or less how I imagined it, and I'm pleased with it. It was to go in a fairly prominent position, so I needed to be satisfied it was right, and it's sitting there happily now. It was delivered within the time frame, in perfect condition, and strongly wrapped. I had never bought anything online before and was rather dreading the process because I had tried other websites in the past which were not straightforward at all, and I'd
given up on them. But yours could not have been easier to follow. I found it very clearly set out, with good images, and all the essential information needed. I could happily spend hours scrolling through all the pictures, and found it quite addictive! I can't think, right now,
how it may be improved. I came across it on Google after going through various combinations of art-related words and looking at specific
galleries and painters etc (and, I may say, after visiting numerous art galleries and shops on foot wherever I happened to be) But your site is
perfect for those people who are unfamiliar with the hundreds of artists out there, and who are not even sure exactly what they are looking for until they see it. I have recommended you to several people already, and shall certainly be keeping an eye on your website, as I may well be looking for another painting before too long!
Ms. J. P, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, 25-Oct-2011
"At the Alhambra Palace" by Jackie Connelly
Love the art I bought. Yes delivered on time and in perfect condition. No qualms now. No all easy. Found art gallery through google search
Ms B.C, Brixton, London, 24-Oct-2011
"Splash" by Terry Wylde
Dear art gallery, lovely art now hanging in living room, i love oil paintings. Terry Wilde does some great work. The only critisism with this picture is that one of the sides on the box canvas does not have the beach painted on to it , and the other side does?
Mr D.H., Bridgend, South Wales, 24-Oct-2011
"Omelette Ready" by Brian Maloy
I am very pleased with the art work I have purchased. Delivery made in good time and arrived in perfect condition. For me personally buying this standard of artwork is a god send, as locally there is art available, it is not of a high standard and is not to my taste. The internet gives me more options. Cannot think of anyway you could improve the service. I found artgallery on the internet myself.
Ms. J. R, Granadilla De Abona, Santa Cruz De Tenerife, 24-Oct-2011

"Watching The Moon 2" by Michael Komarnyckyj
I really liked the picture. It was bought as a birthday present for my Niece and looked stunning in the frame I had bought separately. Yes, it came on time and was very securely wrapped etc. I think that it's a great idea and I will continue to do so. I found out about it two years ago through google.
Thanks.
Ms S F, Greater Manchester, 20-Oct-2011
"Candy Floss" by Demi Lang
I had a problem with the painting when it first arrived but the artist rectified it very promptly, still very happy with the purchase, I would buy on the internet again. Found out through google search

What do you think of the art you bought? - wonderful. Was the artwork delivered on time and in perfect condition? - no. How do you feel about buying art over the Internet? Still some concerns especially more expensive pieces. Are there any aspects of our service we could improve?- shipment

"The Tree Swing" by Tracey Unwin
Overall, very good quality. Though slightly different colour on the computer screen.
Delivery on time. Thick and secure packaging, impressive.
Cheaper than any art gallery. Difficult to get the idea of the size of the product despite of the 'test drive'
We would like to have another page number icon on the top of each page rather than only the bottom of the page.
Mr. H M J, Manchester, 13-Oct-2011
"The Pond" by Tracey Unwin.
This is the 4th painting I have bought from Tracy Unwin, I love her work, and I am very pleased with "The Pond". It arrived safely and packed well, its easy buying over the internet
Ms. J S, Honingham, Norwich., 13-Oct-2011
Love it, but I think I'd still prefer to see it in the flesh before purchasing. The only reason I bought this on the internet is that I saw Bill Reid's work years before, and knew what to expect.
Ms. C W, Midlothian, 13-Oct-2011
"Phone Box" by Keith McBride
I am very happy with it! Beautifully wrapped and excellent condition. It's the 3rd
piece I've bought from you and I couldn't be happier. If there was one minor thing, I guess it would be more photos of the actual art in real life. So, on a wall or against a wall, something to give it more perspective. But for me it's only a minor point.
Mr. T S, London, 13-Oct-2011
Community by Claire Barone
"I love the art I bought! It is even more gorgeous than it looked in the photos on the
website.it was delivered very quickly and very well packaged so it was in perfect condition. The artist also included a card with a message which was a thoughtful touch.
I think buying art on the internet gives you access to a wider variety of artists than going to
galleries and of course is more convenient, on the website I can browse through hundreds of pieces of art which I could never get round in art
galleries with my two young children in tow. I always think it is taking a bit of a gamble as photos on a website could be misleading or I suppose my laptop settings could change the colours etc. however I believe that if I was dissatisfied with the painting I would be able to return it under the terms and conditions on the website.'
Ms A.T., Liverpool, 12-Oct-2011
Stubble Stag and the Queen of Night by Michael Komarnyckyj
Very pleased with the art - great quality, good price and prompt delivery. Extremely well packaged and received on time and in perfect condition. Have bought quite a few pieces from artgallery.co.uk over the internet and the positive experiences mean I have no reservations about purchasing over the net; the excellent quality of the photos on the web site does help!"

The Red Door by Tracy-Ann Marrison
"The artwork that I bought I was thrilled with, I felt it was even better than was shown on the website. Your delivery was spot on with all three pieces of art and all in perfect condition. I have no issues with regard to buying on line although, I got a little concerned when I came to pay with my credit card, as it didn't go through all that smoothly and for a few moments I thought I had clicked onto a doggy site. This was clearly not the case. I can't think of any improvements needed to your site. I found your site after typing in Affordable artwork into Yahoo. I have already recommended your site to friends and an artist who's work I tried to purchase via another website which proved to be rather difficult to the point he lost a sale."
Ms S.D., Chiddingfold, Surrey, 11-Oct-2011
Field of Flowers by Josephine Grundy
"This is the third time that we've purchased artwork from Artgallery, we are very pleased with the latest acquisitions. Many people have commented on the pieces that we've bought and i think a they are a little envious !!!!!! I will be keeping a roving eye and hope to pick up a few more items.The artwork in question was very well protected and came within the said time, no problems buying over the net and the lady who has answered our queeries has been most helpful and coherent, in this day and age a lost quality ! yours sincerely"

Ms B.W., Liverpool, 10-Oct-2011
Ace Cafe London by Keith McBride
"I was extremely pleased with the artwork, I loved it. It was delivered quickly and in perfect condition.
I feel it is always better to see artwork in reality than on the internet, but as this is not always possible - the internet is a good place to research art and as long as it is not too expensive to take a chance.
I thought your service was very good."
Ms D.C.A., Wembley, London, 9-Oct-2011
Abstract Study 2 by Natalie Maciw
"Not really a lover of abstract art but thought this was worth taking a chance on and so it proved. Framed and mounted it has come alive, very pleased with it. Arrived promptly and in good condition. This was our second purchase from you and would recommend your site. (Third purchase already made)."

Punch & Judy 8 by Ricky Figg
"Hi,
I called about this item.Ricky has the most wonderful eye and I had bought a
previous painting from him and was not disappointed.However this was a print
and I believe done on a home printer.It was very poor quality ,I recognise that fifteen pounds was not a lot to pay but I feel the quality devalues
Ricky's work.
As to other details arrived well packed, promptly delivered,love how you can buy
straight from net, customer service was exceptionally nice and caring and
I am recommending your site to all my friends! I found you from a facebook
advert.
Kindest Regards"

Tower Bridge by Keith McBride
"I received Tower Bridge in lovely condition, and I have had it mounted on to a frame by a local art shop. I am in the process of hanging it, I love original art there is nothing like it. I selected this piece by Keith Mcbride as not only London Bridge is very historical but the small details and the use of red in a lot of his work including this piece. Thank you."
ps. Thankyou for your invite to the exhibition this month but i cannot make this but please include me in further events as i love art. xxxx.
Mr D.H., Bridgend, South Wales, 6-Oct-2011
Autumn Birches by Ricky Figg
"Hi, I have never purchased any art before and now I think I have the bug and check the website daily. Autumn Birches was a gift for a friend who lives in a Cheshire park in which there are Birches and it's Autumn so it meant a lot to me that the piece is very personal. The painting was delivered on time, in perfect condition and packaged very securely. I don't think that there is anything that can be improved and I'm enjoying the emails with recommendations and I will be using the service again to find that special something for myself. I think that buying Art over the Internet provides people, like myself with the opportunity to enjoy and buy, if I had not found the site I would have had no clue where to even begin looking. I found the website by simply googling, Art Uk and I really couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you,
Kind regards"
Ms K.J., Runcorn, Cheshire, 4-Oct-2011
Emocean by Kathryn Clark
"It's a fabulous piece. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. This was my first Internet art purchase (I've since bought another from you) and I think it's a great idea. It's a great way to appraise a wide selection of artists. Especially useful is your search feature; being able to select on the basis of genre, style etc. is a real differentiator. One thing you might consider is providing bigger proofs to view on the web site. I realise you wouldn't want to provide images that
people could make their own prints from, but technologies exist that would allow you to provide high definition previews of works without the average end user being able to download them."
Mr M.F., Aylesbury, Bucks, 3-Oct-2011
Beach Huts 2 by Jan Rippingham
Dear Aileen,
I'm very pleased with the art work. Just as I expected. it was delivered by the artist herself, well packed and in perfect condition. The system was very easy, efficient and as I said on the telephone, your website is excellent.
Sorry to say this but your email contacts after the purchase are nothing short of relentless; far too many. Having spent several hundred pounds on a painting, I'm not likely to be wanting to buy several more the following week. I received about 10 emails from you I'd say over the couple of weeks after my purchase which is just too much. Sorry again to say this. It doesn't put me off coming to you as first port of call next time at all, but the relentless barrage is excessive.
Best regards"
Mr G.W., Woking, Surrey, 3-Oct-2011
Gmex Centre by Andrew Alan Matthews
" I like it. Good art at a good price. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition.
I prefer visiting galleries but online shopping has a vast choice and is very convenient."

Riverwalk by Leslie Lynas
"hello, its my pleasure to give feedback...-i love what i bought, i love the colours and they now hang in my office where i spend a lot of time.-the art was delivered in good time, well wrapped , couldn't wait to see what it was like..- i think being able to buy art on the internet is a great idea...it gives the chance to look at all different styles and all different prices, i now have my favorite artists so great service..- i cant think of any thing that needs improving, i spoke with someone over the phone and they were lovely and very helpful...first class...- i found the site while searching for art to buy...now have it i my "favourites"...just a note, i would like to see more art work for places in the north of England as i love the lakes."
Ms S.H., Carlisle, Cumbria, 3-Oct-2011
The Streets by Martin Whittam
"The artwork is great. I love Mr Whittam's paintings.
The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. It is lovely but I have had to cut down the excess paper - it would be better if this could
be done as I don't have a guillotine so I cut it poorly not that it matters as I framed it with a mount.
So far so good as far as buying art over the internet but please see my last comments on a previous purchase, just a bit more info on what size
paper the painting is, would be good."
Ms H.W., , Hertford, 2-Oct-2011
Our Town and Friday Evening by Martin Whittam
"Very pleased with the art I bought. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. This is the first time I have bought art over the internet and had no problems doing this. Cannot think of any way to improve your service."

Mr. F.O., London, 1-Oct-2011
Kaleidoscope 3 by Hester Coetzee
"I'm very pleased with the painting, no problems with the delivery and it was in perfect condition despite some areas of paint that were still wet. Buying on the internet is always a bit of a risk but I haven't been disappointed yet. I'm happy with the service.
Mr C.D., London, 30-Sep-2011
Boats in Harbour by Michael Hughes
"I like the artwork immensely, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Buying art on the internet is an easy way to browse work by a wider range of artists than you would find in a gallery. A framing service would be useful."
Ms H.W., Morpeth, Northumberland, 30-Sep-2011
The Water Tower by Tracey Unwin
"I like the artwork a great deal. The artwork was delivered on time but the bubble wrap had stuck to the paint in a couple of places and lifted small sections of the top layer of paint. I feel fine about buying art over the Internet"
Ms H.W., Morpeth, Northumberland, 30-Sep-2011
Estuary by Pamela Usher
"I like it - a nice warm, calming piece - and at £25 - you could consider it a bit of fun. Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition and with a nice note from the artist. This is the first time I have done so - happy with it for something small & fun, such as I bought - not so sure that I would be so happy buying a larger, more expensive piece without seeing it in the flesh first Can't think of any improvements - apart from, as I've said above, some way of 'road testing' larger, more expensive pieces - maybe that's what you mean by the 21 day guarantee period mentioned above - sorry I haven't been paying attention!"
A.M, Glasgow, 29-Sep-2011
Red Phonebox by Keith McBride
"I am very pleased with the work. Yes it arrived quicker than I thought! I would appreciate a few less emails. I have had emails relating to the transaction, New art by... email updates and this questionnaire. if you could work towards reducing them, then that would be great :) Website was good. Pretty straight forward."
M.L, London, 29-Sep-2011
Summer Breeze by Deborah Norville
"I am very pleased with it and enjoy looking at it every day. Although the work was very well illustrated on the web, the actuality is even better.
Yes, very well packed and prompt delivery. I think it is an obvious thing to do for moderately priced art and works well for me. I think all aspects are already very good and very good value."
G.B, Wiltshire , 28-Sep-2011
Mel Back by Richard Storey
"Everything was great except the border the charcoal was in was in was damaged so has to be replaced , I think it could have been packed more
carefully."
K.M, Dorset, 28-Sep-2011
The Happy Valley by Terry Wylde
"What do you think of the art you bought? I like it very much, and particularly enjoy the humour - it makes me smile. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Have only thus
far bought 2 items, both from Terry Wilde. Would think twice before buying more expensive items, particularly from an artist who's work I had not previously seen. Has been excellent on both occasions that I have used it."
A.L, Essex, 28-Sep-2011

Temples by Tracy Unwin
"I love the artwork. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I really like your site, especially being able to view the picture in the
different rooms. I'm very pleased with the overall service."
Mr A.D., Ilford, Essex, 27-Sep-2011
Cley Mill, Norfolk by David Shiers
"I am really pleased with my painting, and continue to find subtle features, such as the central positioning of the sunburst, the textured lines
suggesting movement and flow, and the selected palette of colours echoed at various parts of the canvas, all of which help to create a balance.
It arrived sooner than expected, and in perfect condition. The packaging was a work of art in itself and took some unravelling. Buying art over the
internet does involve some uncertainty - are the colours an accurate reproduction etc, and should not be rushed into. I spent some weeks looking
at the work of David Shiers to become familiar with his style and subject matter, before I felt confident to order. The internet gave me the opportunity to view far more works than I could ever visit in person, and gave me time to make my decision. I was grateful that David gave full details of the frame, which I feel complements the work.
The only aspect that perhaps could be tightened, is to ensure every artist provides the information as to whether the work needs varnishing or some
other preparation before framing. Most do, but with some, I wasn't sure.
I found your website by Google Search and retain it as a favourite for future enjoyment. For now I am just getting great pleasure from my dramatic
view of Norfolk in Timperley!"
Ms A.P., Timperley, Cheshire, 25-Sep-2011
Grecian Urn by Alison Mayer
"Hello Aileen
Just to say my first purchase from artgallery has arrived and I'm absolutely thrilled with it and thankfully, my husband loves it too. It's The Grecian Urn - a beautiful little piece and I couldn't be happier with it. I can't wait to see the others now!
Many thanks for your help this week; with service like this, I'll certainly be placing some more orders in the future.
Have a good weekend
Warm regards"
Mrs W.B., Jersey, 24-Sep-2011
Fantasy Reality by Lewis Revill
"The picture was very nice and good value for money. The only problem was that the picture appeared to be not fully dry and some of the bubble rap was stuck to it. A very small amount of the paint came off when removed. I am still happy merely advice for next time."
Mr M.S., Blackpool, Lancs, 24-Sep-2011
The Storm by Miroslav Stojkovic
"The art work was delivered promptly and in perfect condition .This is now hanging on my living room wall. I am very fond of the artist Miroslav Stojkovic work and also own another of his original pieces. I discovered art gallery from searching for original art on google, I have also received another original from yourselves of artist Keith Mcbride which I have to say again I am over the moon. I think that maybe if I was to order another piece from yourselves that you may be able to offer some sort of discount incentive. My favourite artists are selling on both your websites, many thanks."
D.H, Cardiff, 22-Sep-2011
White Rose by Lil Nutter
"Excellent, fits really well in to our newly decorated living room. Yes, very happy. Was delivered in perfect condition and was very well
packaged. This is the first time we have purchased original artwork in this way and
would definitely consider doing it again. It does state on your website that artwork comes with a certificate of authenticity, as yet we still have not received ours."
S.R, West Yorkshire , 22-Sep-2011
Casa Bella by Gerry Ludlow
"Good. Yes, the artwork was defintely delivered on time and in perfect condition. I felt slightly nervous about buying art online as it's not the same as seeing it 'in the flesh'."
M.W, Oxfordshire , 22-Sep-2011

S.B, Olney , 20-Sep-2011
Swirl by Edward Sheldrick
"Very pleased - this artist certainly has talent.
It took over a week after the picture was bought for delivery. It was very difficult to extract it from the tube - it had to be cut out. You're always prompt when dealing with queries - so far happy with the service."
S.B, Olney , 20-Sep-2011
Winter Lane by Brigitte Hayden
"Love it! Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Would do it again."
C.H, London, 16-Sep-2011
Pegasus (Miniature) Green Tail by Jean Lagadec
"Excellent quality, visually stunning and perfect for the occasion. This is the first time that I've bought art onlibe but would do so again. Having direct contatc with Jean certainly helped convince me that this was absolutely the correct way to go and ultimately resulted in a bespoke end result which I was very grateful for. Everything this perfect."
D.W, Suffolk, 15-Sep-2011
VW Beetle Sunray by Paul Pennell

African Waterhole by Ricky Figg
"I think your service is fantastic - the artworks are beautiful - I love them all! They make perfect presents for people and there is such variety. They are always delivered in perfect condition. I originally found you through
searching on google. Thank you for your continued and wonderful service; with Christmas sure to arrive before we know it, I'll be back again soon!"
J.M, East Sussex, 14-Sep-2011
Red Phonebox by Keith McBride
"I am very happy with this work, however it is slightly disappointing to discover that while it is an original, the artist is knocking out almost identical works on somewhat of a production line when one has sold. Still very happy with this and the other one I purchased. Do wish you would get me removed from the mailing list - I do not wish to be notified every time an artist I have purchased puts a new work up for sale."
S.R, Lincs , 14-Sep-2011
Evening Coast by Terry Wylde
"I adore my new art work, simply beautiful. It arrived on time and well packed, there was a tiny amout of damage but that was probably made by me carrying it home! I feel secure about buying from your site, others I have looked at don't look so professional so that always raises doubt. I particuarly find the 'test drive' section very useful as a size guide."
D.C, Fife, 13-Sep-2011
Mumbles Lighthouse and Pier by Rebecca Jory
"Nice. It arrived in perfect condition."
S.H, London, 13-Sep-2011
Chilli Puzzle by Kevin Oldham
"Thank you for confirming refund. It was a lovely picture, unfortunately it was just too small for the space I had wanted it for."
S.C, Oxon , 13-Sep-2011
Riverwalk by Leslie Lynas
"I was originally looking to buy just one painting, but having already chosen "Shared Umbrella" by Leslie Lynas, I then found 2 more by the same artist that I also loved - and I was thrilled that the price meant that I could afford to buy all. I think that the recurring theme of enjoying the simple pleasure of walking with your partner by the river (or in the park for the other 2) is very romantic and it really makes me smile. I love the glow of the street lights, brightening up the nighttime scene. It's fab! I'm happy to buy art over the internet - it gives you more time to browse at leisure and artgallery.co.uk is great because you have so many artists (with a great range of prices and sizes of artwork) all in one place. I would like to see an improved search functionality, e.g. so I
could find "box canvas" paintings, search by predominant colour (i.e. "blue" rather than "dark azure"), etc."
H.A, Greater Manchester , 13-Sep-2011
Shared Umbrella by Leslie Lynas
"I fell in love with this painting as soon as I saw it - the autumn colours are fabulous and I love the way that the old-fashioned lamps glow through the trees. It's such a romantic scene -
the simple pleasure of snuggling under brolly for a walk in the rain with your partner. Love it!"
H.A, Greater Manchester , 13-Sep-2011
Lovers in the Park by Leslie Lynas
"Another stunning painting. Fabulous textures from the acrylic, giving real depth to the painting, with wonderful colours for the leaves on the trees. I love the style - sometimes quite detailed (tree branches), sometimes more impressionist (the leaves, the people), which somehow makes the paintings seem more personal."
H.A, Greater Manchester , 13-Sep-2011
Doubt by Alexander Singleton
"Superb piece of traditional draughtsmanship. It looks very good framed! Delivered on time and in excellent condition. Initially very nervous about buying over the net but now more relaxed. Bought a couple of watercolours from the States and this drawing. Will be more cautious now about buying from outside the EU as I had forgotten about customs etc! Made it a more expensive transaction."
J.L, Cheshire , 12-Sep-2011
Original Life by Hester Coetzee
"I love it and so do my students and parents - it sits on an otherwise bare wall in my music teaching studio. In addition will probably buy from Hester again - fabulous!!!!!!!"
J.F, Northamptonshire , 10-Sep-2011
Moulin Rouge, Paris and Arc de Triomphe by Tracey Unwin
"I actually bought three related pieces from Tracey Unwin on this occasion: Paris, Arc de Triomphe and Moulin Rouge. I have bought from her before and very much enjoy her range of style and subject matter. I cannot commend her highly enough. Aside from the fine quality of her work, she is extremely efficient and careful in her packing and despatch of the art. A particularly enjoyable touch is her personal note that she sends with each piece printed on a a card containing an image of another of her pieces. This is something that makes each piece a little more personal for me. The three pieces now occupy my main wall in my master bedroom and I take huge delight in spending a few moments each evening and morning. They end and start each day for me with a smile and a feeling that part of me is back in Paris for a moment."
A.S, Isle of Man , 9-Sep-2011

Will definitely do it again at some point, have recommended to family."
K.D, Middlesex, 9-Sep-2011
Shalom by Lesley Finney
"I love it.....very vibrant colurs. Excellently packaged and arrived safely. There is always a risk buying online, but I don't have the time to do it any other way. I don't like the fake rooms online, they would be better if they were photos of rooms."
R.B, Kent, 7-Sep-2011
Sorel Addict by Katarzyna Kaldowski
"Received with thanks - loved it."
R.F, Cheshire , 6-Sep-2011
Into the Dark by Kate Richardson
"We are very pleased with this piece of art thank you. I prefer to view the pieces where possible and luckily you are close to us however, we bought this piece over the internet.
We had some problems with delivery."
A.C, Wiltshire , 6-Sep-2011
Flow Series 22 by Tracy-Ann Marrison
"I'm very pleased with the Art that I recieved, it was delivered promptly and in good condition, the only exception to this being the certificate of
authenticity which was a bit ripped and crumpled. Overall very pleased with buying over the internet it gave me a good opportunity to look for something that I wanted at my own pace and this being my first experience I think I
would have been slightly cautious about going to a gallery. The details on the website didn't give me any idea of the different textures but this was
just a pleasant suprise when it was received. Also a query I had was dealt with very promptly. I'm still looking for further pieces and wouldn't hesitate if something I really liked came up, and will definetly be keeping my I on the artists that I have bought from. The only thing that could really make it better is some better searching as there was a lot to look through and somethiing like finding similar art from different artists I would use."
S.V, Cambridgeshire , 6-Sep-2011
Chained by Ellie Whittington
"Beautiful. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. More choice than
in many galleries."

Evening Rain by Deborah Norville
"Hi the art work I bought was exactly as I requested and arrived in perfect condition I bought the picture after googling paintings for sale on the internet and coming up with your page which I found very easy to use and
intend to use again in the future. Many thanks."
N.W, East Yorkshire , 5-Sep-2011
Silly Cat by Irina Rumyantseva
"I love my 'silly cat'. This is the third piece of art I have bought from this artist and I am delighted with each and every one. The artwork was delivered quickly and was very well packaged. I am very confident buying art
over the internet, I have bought numerous items from your site and when I did return one I was refunded very quickly and without any hassle. Love the choice of art you provide. Two thumbs up!!!!!"
J.G, Cork, 4-Sep-2011

Fiesta by Jan Peters
Cat with Attitude by Jean Tatton JonesHi Aileen
"I just thought i would drop you an email thanking you for the great service i have received from you. The 2 pieces i ordered have both exceeded my expectations for very different reasons. Fiesta is just wonderful and the pictures really didn't do it justice, it has an elegance and iridescence that is simply stunning!
Cat with attitude just captures the essence of a feline in a simple and very well portrayed manner.
Many thanks to both Artgallery and the Artists."
Mr M.W., Warrington, Cheshire, 2-Sep-2011
A Winter's Eve by Deborah Norville
"We are delighted with the painting which is everything we had hoped for. The painting was delivered within two days and in perfect condition. We really appreciated the hand written note from the artist. An on-line art gallery is a great idea and your web site is now one of my favorite sites. The web site looks great and works very well indeed. I have recommended the site to all my friends."
J.L, Avon, 1-Sep-2011
Girl by the Sea by Derek Brewster

favorite sites. The web site looks great and works very well indeed. I have recommended the site to all my friends. Thank you again for the fantastic service."
J.L, Avon, 1-Sep-2011
Songbird by Jo Grundy
"I purchased Songbird from Jo Grundy which is my second work of art from her. As with my first (country cottage), I was absolutely thrilled with it in every way. I love the mixture of painting with added details from beads and string etc. I love the feel of the picture and it feels as though you really are in the country. It arrived beautifully wrapped up - no chance of damage with a lovely hand written note. Jo very kindly on request changed the colour of the edge of the canvas from a dark blue to a sky blue to fit into my decor which was just lovely of her! It also made it just that bit more personal for me! I love her art and hope to buy more in the future! I have answered the other questions before but I'd like to add again that it would be great to have all the new art coming in under 1 button so you can see what's new without going through all the artists!! Very time consuming. You only know if new art has come in from the artists that you have already purchased from which is fantastic, but in addition, a button from the home page showing recent art added would be perfect and I think you would have more sales from it!! It would be quick and also exciting to look at!"
N.P, Surrey, 31-Aug-2011
Stompin Rain by James Shepherd
"It's brilliant I love the picture. Yes it was delivered on time and well wrapped. I know what I like so I don't need to see it in person and it suits my purposes. I have always
received a good service."

Mumbles Lighthouse by Rebecca Jory
"Your website is great and I was so pleased with the piece I bought, as is my Mum who I bought it for. The service was great and I'd definitely use you again and recommend you to others. It's a lovely piece, really good photographs and description on the website. It was delivered really quickly and packed really well so it was in perfect condition when it arrived. I was a bit wary at first about buying art online, but very pleasantly surprised with the result and it was so convenient. Everything about the service was great."
R.D, Sheffield, 30-Aug-2011
Dinosaur Boy by Claire Keay
"I am very pleased with it. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel ok about buying art online. I was a little nervous, but the transaction went well. It's easy to surf through a big selection on the internet which is good, although it means that you tend to look at a lot of unsuitable stuff as well."
L.M, Bristol, 30-Aug-2011

Thanks, everybody - but especially Golan, the genius artist!"

The Old Boat by Terry Wylde
"This simple painting is something I would like to depict myself if I had the time. The painting arrived as advised but had no signature or certificate of authentication but
what does one expect for £30. I think the website is absolutely wonderful and I wish you well-bringing art to us plebs. May well
buy some more for our Cyprus home.
I really wish you well - especially as you are operating in my home County."
Ms J.C., Newent, Gloucestershire, 25-Aug-2011
Mackerel Blue by Gill Masters
"We were delighted with the painting, and have subsequently purchased two more.
The artwork was delivered on time, and in perfect condition, and we were kept up to date with the delivery progress at all times.
This was the first time we had bought art over the internet, and were pleased with the results.
Totally happy with the service so no improvements suggested."
Ms S.H., Leeds, 25-Aug-2011

Nest in a Teacup by Natalie Rymer
"Love it! It looks just like the picture online, and I think the little birds in a heart teacup are sweet and look perfect in my baby girl's
nursery. A more unique way to decorate the kids' rooms! Yes it was delivered on time, and yes in perfect condition. I've never done it before - and I'm hooked! Your photos are so
representative of the actual art, and I love the "try it in your living room" feature. Plus, it's great that you have a period to return it. Loved the whole experience!"

City Scape by Joanne Clare Pilkington
"The art is fantastic and fits our contemporary living room perfectly. The colours were accurately reflected in the picture and it is even better than we had anticipated. Will look out for more artwork from this artist. It was wrapped extremely well with padding and packaging around it. Quite happy knowing that there is a guarantee we can return artwork that isn't suitable. It helps that good quality photos are included so you can see the finer details. It would be nice to have the option of nominated day delivery (at a fee) as I had to wait in all day for the artwork and it didn't come until 4pm!"
M.G, South Yorkshire , 23-Aug-2011
Vesuvius by Matthew Smith
"Really love my artwork, was exactly how it looked online. Yes, it was delivered in time and was very carefully and precisely wrapped. First time I had bought art on line. Was a bit dubious at first but will definitely do it again after my first experience was so good."

Flamenco No 1, No 2 & No 3 by Mike Unwin
"The artworks are beautiful - my partner loves them. The delivery arrived the very next day - excellent. How do I feel about buying art online?Why not? We do it for nearly everything else. I'd definitely buy artwork online again."
L.A, Essex, 19-Aug-2011
Harbour Reflections by Hester Coetzee
"I really enjoy it and I will purchase again. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel relatively confident about buying art over the internet. I was worried that the colours would not appear the same on screen and in real life but they did. Seeing the artwork from differenct angles and in some cases zoomed in, helps."
A.N, Essex, 18-Aug-2011
Wild Poppies by Deborah Norville
"I received the Wild Poppies picture soon after ordering. I thought the art was excellent. The delivery and packing were VERY good. I was apprehensive about buying art over the internet but your web page gives the buyer a good opportunity to see how the art will look in its final environment. Your site also allows the opportunity to return the art within a specific time frame if unhappy - which is VITAL."
R.S, Ayrshire , 18-Aug-2011
Harvest Hare by Seonaid Parnell
"Outstanding. Exactly as on the tin - Seonaid's personal touch was really appreciated. Yes, it was delivered within 24 hours in perfect condition!
First time I've done it and would certainly do so again. This customer got exactly what they wanted; expectations fully managed!"
R.C, Shropshire , 17-Aug-2011
Three Nudes - Dance
Good Morning Aileen,
We received the painting yesterday afternoon but decided to wait until we were together this morning to open it. Fantastic!! Vibrant colourful and joyful. Its stronger, more rhythmic and fluid than the Three Graces but it looks so well at right angles to them. We both thought that the painting style and technique of the Three Nudes showed a bit more maturity and confidence - but what do we know!
The main thing is we think its great! Please pass on our compliments and admiration to Stephen Conroy.
(On a boring but practical point it was really well and professionally packaged.) Thank you so much for securing it for us and for being such a lovely warm person.
We hope you get back some of the happiness you give to your customers - the gallery and especially you so deserve it.
all our very best wishes
CP & Mrs CP, Daventry, Northampton, 16-Aug-2011
Large Pastel Nude by Steve Jones
"It's lovely, completely different from other art that I have, which is mostly scenic and in oils,
watercolour or acrylic. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel comfortable about bying art online, although
seeing the original in the flesh (an appropriate phrase, given the subject of the drawing) can't be beaten."
G.D, Northumberland, 16-Aug-2011
Castle in the Storm by Gareth Buxton
"Really please with the picture. Perfect condition. I the process of being framed at present. Please forward my appreciation to the artist."

The Gardens by Deborah Norville
"The art work is lovely, I am extremely pleased with it. It was delivered in good time and in perfect condition. I find it a lovely touch that Deborah Norville puts a personally written note in with the work. I think buying art over the internet a good idea, there is much larger range
of artwork available than I would ever see in a shop or gallery. I have bought 3 paintings over the net and they have arrived looking exactley as I
thought they would. There is nothing I have been less than happy with and so nothing I can
suggest to improve."
L.N, Devon , 16-Aug-2011
Chalk Hill Summer by Paula Oakley
"I love the picture - it reminds me of my childhood holidays with the grandparents in Hove. We had many happy trips up to the Downs, including Devil's Dyke. When I loook at, the picture "draws me in" and I can almost feel the sun on my back! The painting arrived next day in perfect condition. This is the 5th painting I have bought online from the Art Gallery. The service has been excellent every time. I shall continue to enjoy browsing through the paintings, though with limited wall space, I shall have to curb by enthusiasm!! :-)"

Dusk Meadow by Tracey Unwin
"I am very pleased with the art I bought, delivered, and packed well. Buying art over the internet is usually fine, althought I suppose actu
ally seeing the painting is better. No improvement to be made I have been happy with the service given."

Newport Transporter Bridge by Anthony Forrest
"The art work which was purchased was as a 40 year anniversary gift (business relationship) and was fantastic. The recipient really liked the painting and it was perfect for the occasion. It was delivered on time and any questions which I had were answered promptly and efficiently. I had never thought of buying art over the internet previously but would certainly do so again following this experience."

Green Maki by Irina Rumyantseva
" This is a lovely piece and I do look at Irina's work regularly although a lot is out of my price bracket. I haven't decided where to put it either in my bedroom (where it is at the moment) or on the stairs as I'll look at it more often on the stairs. Fantastic condition and framed ready to go up on the wall - I really love it. I recommended this website given my experience and bought gift vouchers for a friend's birthday, the scene setting idea is great as it shows how big the art is perfect when you know where you want a piece to go. I think that as you have range of prices and such a large selection there really is something for everyone."
H.W, Hertford, 7-Aug-2011
Water Lilies (Commission) by Alison Johnson
"I found the service you provided excellent. You were very quick to find out exactly what I was looking for and put me in contact with
the right artist. I am very pleased with my painting and would like to thank you for your help."
S.D, West Sussex , 5-Aug-2011
Thursday Night by Deborah Norville
"I bought it as a present. They thought it was beautiful. I've seen it and I thought the same.
Perfect on both counts and very well wrapped. I would by from that artist again, for sure - she even wrote a little note!"
T.S, London, 3-Aug-2011
Reflections by Stephen Scott

Andalusian Horse by Lorna Dredger
"The picture is absolutely beautiful, I am very pleased with it. The picture was delivered within the time frame and in perfect condition. I was very dubious about an internet picture purchase, but now that I have dealt with artgallery.co.uk I feel much more confident of purchasing over the internet in future. I could not think of anything that would improve the service. I was looking for a specific type of image "horse" and I found the picture as
a result of a google image search. I am very very pleased with my purchase and will have no hesitation both using it myself again and recommending it widely."
J.F, Devon , 2-Aug-2011
Sunset Walk by Terry Wylde
"We liked the style to compliment two others we have bought by Terry, 'Sails at Sunset' and another 'sails' type but untitled on the back. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition."
G.C, Hampshire , 1-Aug-2011
Love by Katie Wakefield
"I really like it the picture, I actually have bought two. The first one was lost when I moved house so I bought another. It was delivered in time but had been slightly creased/damaged in the post. I have bought a number of paintings from your website and have no problem buying art in this way. I think you are doing everything well. As you have so much choice it would make it easier to search if you could be more specific in the search terms e.g. colours or style? Also an amazon type management system would help you drive sales as you can make recommendations based on previous purchases."

The Joker by Julia Greenyer
"I like it and although it was expensive compared to the artist's other pieces, I am hoping it has investment value. It also plays a possible part in the branding identity for my company, and so is in fact a piece of business artwork owned by the company and the thumbnail image appears on my business card. I have not yet figured out where to display it yet as office space is in transition. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. No problems with buying artwork online, much more straightforward than buying clothes. It would be nice to talk to the artist about the piece, its motivations etc. I can then explain why I bought it and what I intend to do with it. I can probably do that directly, but it could be something that you facilitate."
B.D, Newport, 31-Jul-2011
Glory Days by Deborah Norville
"We are very pleased with Glory Days - just what we wanted and expected. The picture was extremely well packaged and arrived in perfect condition. We have bought several pieces of art over the Internet and feel that it works very well. We are very happy with the service of ArtGallery.co.uk. The e-mail alerts,
when new works from favourite artists become available, are especially useful."
T.O, Hampshire , 30-Jul-2011

Tullips by Marta Lachowicz
"OK as portrayed but view coloured by damage suffered in transit. This was our first purchase so obviously made us dubious. Still some concerns but have purchased again this morning. Service from Charlotte and yourself was excellent and helpful."
A.B, Lancashire , 24-Jul-2011
"Received last picture of this order, I have now ordered 12 pictures and received 11 of them very quickly as I understand the 12 picture was postal problem out with everyone else' s control. I have been extremely happy with the service provided and have recommended you to others. The standard of artist work has been excellent and look forward to dealing with you again soon."
S.H., London, 22-Jul-2011
Holy Landscape 2323 by Eric Aristidou
"The Artwork itself was fine but in my opinion the presentation leaves a lot to be desired.
The frame was of the poorest quality I have encountered with my purchases so far and the canvas was poorly attached to the frame. On top of this the picture was marked with what looks like bubble wrap markings. I reported
this by email but I have received no acknowledgement. In conclusion the art
was fine. Presentation zero points.
M.F., East Riding of Yorkshire, 21-Jul-2011
Church in Snow by Eric Hattrell
"Hello,
Thanks for the email. Here's my feedback.
Eric Hattrell is quite an artist. I really love this piece. It's very delicate, elegant and atmospheric - perfectly conveying the feel of the countryside in winter. It came in very good time and in perfect condition with a hand-written note from the artist.
Despite initial reservations (over the accuracy of the images on websites compared with the real thing) I'm now very comfortable with buying over the internet.
I've mentioned this before but I'd really love to have a "what's new" section on your website so that I can just look for things that have recently become available.
Thanks,
M.M.., Manchester, 21-Jul-2011
Mega City Landscape by Eric Aristidou
"I am extremely pleased and delighted with the paintings I bought. They actually look even better than on the website and lthough 'abstract' paintings, no one who has seen them has thought them anything other than cityscapes. I received my paintings within 2 days of ordering, quicker than expected! They were well wrapped and protected. Having purchased from Artgallery.co.uk before, I had no qualms about buying online because I knew that even if the paintings were not of the standard I hoped for I would be able to return them without a quibble. As for service improvements the only thought I have about the website is that it might be useful to have independent 'professional' comments about the artists/artwork as well as descriptions from the artists themselves."
C.M, Fife , 20-Jul-2011
The Pink One of Reds by Aisha Haider
"I think it is a lovely piece of artwork very well painted and when it arrived looks just like it does online. Well worth the money. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Using artgallery.co.uk - perfect."

Tenby Museum by Ken Hayes
"Thank you for your excellent service to date on all the artwork I have recently bought from you. Very good packaging, fast delivery, no
disappointments with the work from all artists.
Only problem so far is that I have been trying to buy work by Martin Whittam eg "going to chippy" - love his series of similar watercolours,
but when I see your mail that a new piece is on sale, I find it has already been sold! I will have to keep a sharper eye out in future."
Many thanks, keep up the good work,
R.G, Carmarthenshire , 16-Jul-2011
Two Peacocks by Mahesh Gobindram
"It was a present and the person i gave it to like it very much. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition but I did not get a certificate of authenticity. The site was very simple to use."

You Gotta Laugh by Kim Curtis

S.B, Yorkshire, 15-Jul-2011
Rooster by Eric Hattrell
"Absolutely love it. Unusual subject, beautifully painted and a bit different. Immediately bought frame and hung it in the waiting empty space.
Painting came within 3 days and arrived in pristine condition. My first time buying art over the internet and it proved to be an easy
and satisfying experience. I will definitely be looking at repeating it over time. I am very impressed at the variety and quality of art available at prices to suit all pockets, and the ease with which I could search the site for artist/subject matter. Can't think of any. It surprised me that it is possible to look at the
artwork in such close detail and get a real feel for the painting, so there is no disappointment when the package arrives - just the pleasure of
actually getting what you wanted."
V.C, Hertfordshire , 15-Jul-2011
Mind the Trap by Blanka Ciok
"Having received the art work both myself and my partner; whom the purchase was for; were delighted with the piece. It is a lot bigger than I originally thought. However this is a positive; as it makes it an even more dominant statement with a prime hanging space. The piece was within given time constraints and was delivered undamaged. The obvious drawback of purchasing art over the internet is the inability to draw depth or very high detail from the screen. However it does save a lot of time walking around galleries. The only thing I could suggest to improve is the delivery transit time. However that would not deter me from future purchases."
A.B, Derbyshire , 15-Jul-2011
The Dance by Liz Turner
It was beautiful, the photograph didn't do it justice; I hadn't anticipated the lovely texture.
It was delivered much more quickly than I expected; I was very pleased as I was so keen to see it! It was extremely well packed hence arrived in perfect condition. I have no about buying art over the internet if the experience is as good as this has been. The images on the site- if all are like the piece I bought, they really
don't show these artworks at their best."
J.D, Nottinghamshire, 15-Jul-2011
Spring Flowers by Jacqueline Moore
"I have never bought any original art before and was googleing around trying to find a print or something and came upon your site. I had no idea you could buy original items from such a large group of artists and at reasonable prices! I spent quite a long time going through all the artists and I clicked on every single one!! There were 3 artists that stood out but particularly the art of Jacqueline Moore. Her art clicked with me and I love every painting on the site and I wish I could buy them all!! She is my favourite artist by far! I bought Spring Flowers as it made me feel happy when I looked at it! The painting arrived in perfect condition within 2 days and was wrapped up well so there was no way it could be damaged. I am absolutely delighted with the painting and am so pleased to own it. I have hung it where I walk past and every time I do it makes me smile. The only thing that confuses me about her is work is the price! Surely they are worth so much more!! I'm not complaining of course (!) and hope to buy more of her work when I have the funds! I didn't mind buying over the internet because - well - look at all the choice! You'd never be able to see that amount of art in one place. One thing I'd like is to see a collection of recent art added to the site with one click of the button from all the different artists. You have a button for recent art sold so it would be great to have all the new art in under one button. It takes a long time looking through!"
N.P, Surrey, 14-Jul-2011
Country Cottage by Josephine Grundy
"I bought Country Cottage as this painting jumped right out at me when I saw it! I love the countryside and cottages so despite not really being able to afford it, I just HAD to have it! I saw that it had stitching and sequins etc on it and thought that would be lovely! I was not prepared for just how fantastic this picture was! I could not stop looking at it when it arrived and I really love it so much. It is beautiful! It arrived in perfect condition very quickly - about 2 days - and was wrapped very well. The detail in the art - the use of string and stitching and sequins etc makes each detail stand out. I love the hay bales! I love it all. Even the thrush and the blackbird have been made with amazing detail. It sparkles slightly (the flowers) and it brings it to life. I love this picture! It was as though it was made for me! Not being an artist or anything, just one thing was puzzling and that was that it was in 2 pieces - bit of a devil getting it up on the wall in line with each other but I don't really notice it now - I see it as one. I love all her other work as well and wish I could buy more! It's all lovely. Just have to say that comparing the picture of the art with the real thing, there was a hugh difference but it was a lovely suprise to realise just how much better it was in reality!
N.P, Surrey, 14-Jul-2011
Mountains Within by Michelle Gibbs
"The art i bought is wonderful. I was very pleased with it and it looks beautiful in my new home. It was very well packaged. I was a bit skeptical at the start but now I will definately be going on the website to buy the rest of the art for my home. It is very convienient and there is great choice. There was a problem with the sizing of my art but everyone was very helpful
When I tried to pay for the art the system didnt work and so I was left a little unsure about what had happened to my money and credit card details but it was resolved very quickly."
A.M, Belfast, 14-Jul-2011
Clocking Off by Deborah Norville

I Was Sat Under a Tree At the Bottom of the Garden by Isabel Adonis
"I really love the painting, the subject appeals to me greatly and I love the naive quality of the work. My only 'ever so slight' niggle is my own fault. I estimated that the work was going to larger and didn't look at the measurements properly. However it arrived on time, although I was out and had to collect it from the post office and it was in excellent condition. I would not have any problem buying art in the future over the internet, I think it is an excellent idea. Your service was good; it was really easy to order and the site is easy to navigate. iI only wish I could afford to buy more!"
E.M, South Yorkshire , 12-Jul-2011
Buns on the Run by Scott Henderson
"I really like it and enjoy it. Yes. the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition.
I felt a little hesitant buying art over the internet, unable to get the real feel for a piece on the internet, looks very different close up. More detailed pictures, zoom facility etc. rotate look at the edge if framed or a canvas would be an improvement."
M.N, London, 11-Jul-2011
Cornish Estuary by Brigitte Hayden
"Excellent. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. No problem, would do it again."

Brick Lane: Beigel Bakery by Andrew Reid Wildman
"I really enjoy it, the only thing is it is a little darker then I thought. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. The certificate was missing but after getting in touch with you it was sorted out very quickly. Feel okay with smaller purchases, I would like to buy some more expensive pieces but need to see then to buy. A framing service and the ability to create your own run and insert the piece. It would be good to have some more pictures of some of the pieces."
M.N, London, 8-Jul-2011
Evening Sails by Terry Wylde
"I'm so delighted with this artwork by Terry, it's the first original painting we've ever owned - it was a thrill to find that we could own something so beautiful and affordable. Received artwork within a week, in excellent condition. I was reluctant at first to buy over the internet, we considered it a risk but we're delighted we gave it a go. I wish I could "subscribe" to artists, and get a weekly email from you with their new paintings available for sale. At the minute I have to add one "painting" to my wishlist - not an artist. It would be nice to be able to choose, say 10 artists you would like to keep an eye on.
Thank you again for your website, we are really thrilled and I will be a regular visitor from now on."
M.H, Derbyshire , 7-Jul-2011

Nest in a Teacup by Natalie Rymer
"I'm delighted with my purchase. I asked Natalie could she do something similar to another of her pictures and she replied very quickly saying it
was no problem. Only 3 days later she had finished the piece. Upon paying she posted it straight away and I had it within a week of first making contact. This level of service is exceptional and I am very grateful to Natalie for such an easy and pleasant transaction. More to the point the art is exactly what I had hoped for, I really love it and smile everytime I walk
past it on the wall. Thanks Natalie. Super fast, super perfect!!! I feel confident about buying art over the internet."
J.G, Cork, 5-Jul-2011
Luka by Darren Lucas
"The piece of art work I brought is amazing, the detail is fantastic and I am so pleased with my picture. Art work delivered with no damage. I was unsure of buying art on the web at first but this was very successful and easier than I imagined. I think improvements should be made on communication between the art gallery
and clients, I was left waiting for a while for responses and was unsure what was happening and if the art work was being completed. I found the website easy to use. I have and will recommend ArtG to friends."
J.J, Middlesex, 5-Jul-2011
My Gorgeous Flowers by Casimira Mostyn
"I'm pleased to be able to give positive feedback on my recent purchase. I love my picture, it's exactly as described and the colours are perfect. I was amazed that I ordered it on a Sunday night and received it first thing Tuesday morning. I'm very happy with my experience of buying art on-line, I've bought from your website and from one of your artists and am delighted with both and have recommended you to family and friends. I can't think of any possible improvements to your service as in my experience so far it's perfect!Thank you."
A.K, Falkirk, 4-Jul-2011
Wild Summer by Paula Oakley
" Love it - it is a very fresh, refreshing picture. I bought it for my bedroom, which is painted blue.
Delivery was really quick - was faster than I had expected. No damage whatsoever due to excellent packing. I have now bought 4 paintings from Art Gallery over the internet - can only report positive experiences."
S.N, Berkshire , 2-Jul-2011
Moon Walking by Ricky Figg
"I really couldn't be happier with my beautiful artwork!! It arrived very quickly in a super strength package which kept it very safe.
Having bought art for the very first time over the Internet, I was amazed at just how easy it was. Having the unconditional guarantee there was what swayed me to try, after all I had nothing to lose. I am so glad that I did,
I absolutely love all three pictures that I have bought to date. The only problem that I now have is finding the room for more works on my
walls. I am forced to find smaller works that I do have room for, which is both fun and frustrating when I find beautiful pictures that I know simply will not fit the space available.
It is a real pleasure to browse through all the works offered, I couldn't hope to do that anywhere else, because I am a pensioner and have mobility problems. Quite apart from the fact that I can find pictures which suit both my eye and my purse! Thank you so much for the great service you offer and a huge thank you too
for my favourite artist Ricky Figg. The paintings look fabulous framed!!! I hope to buy from you again very soon. My very best wishes to you all there at Artgallery."

On Golden Field by Jeremy Mayes
"I absolutely love the little picture, its truly beautiful. The picture arrived promptly, and was packed safely. I would buy from this artist again without a moments hesitation, and will
definately be looking at artgallery on a regular basis to find more treasures, my experiences have all been good and I will happily recommend
both artgallery and this artist."
C.S, Kent, 27-Jun-2011
Night Life by Ricky Figg
"I just love this beautiful picture, which makes me smile every time I look at it. It looks superb framed and I simply couldn't be happier with my
lovely pictures. They arrived very promptly and in secure packaging to ensure perfect condition.
I really appreciate receiving the emails telling me when new works by my favourite artists are in stock, I always check them immediately!!
I have found that buying art from artgallery to be both safe, and a great experience. I would happily recommend both this particular artist and
artgallery. My thanks to you all."
C.S, Kent, 27-Jun-2011

R.D, Hereford, 22-Jun-2011
Florentina by Lesley Blackburn
"Generally pleased - Felt the particular painting did not work as a frameless canvas - would have preferred it if not edge painted.
Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition thank you. It took 10 minutes to unpack. Happy on the whole but find it difficult to see the quality of painting."
C.W, Gloucestershire, 22-Jun-2011

R.D, Hereford, 22-Jun-2011
Seascape 3 & Seascape 4 by Howard Sills
"I'm delighted with 'Seascape 3' and 'Seascape 4'. Both the colours and composition are very strong and the series is very well conceived. The
colours are even stronger than they appear on screen and the quality surpassed my expectation for a print. Great work Howard!! Thank you also for the recommendation regarding framing. Fast postage and despite living in Ireland the cost of postage was covered
by Howard which was a very nice touch, and much appreciated. Very confident. Having bought numerous items from you in recent weeks perhaps a discount for multiple purchases or for regular customers might be an idea."
J.G, Cork, 21-Jun-2011
The Journey by Melissa Jane Sturgeon
"Very pleased with it, an evocative piece about a region of London that holds great memories.
Very good communication, arrived safely and well. No problem whatever buying art over internet, however I had seen the piece at Malvern Theatre first."
S.S, Hereford, 21-Jun-2011
Prosperous by Hester Coetzee

Enjoyable Experience by Hester Coetzee
"I haven't seen it yet! It was sent straight to my house in France, but my sister, who has received it for me tells me it is "very cool" !!
Due to the international delivery, it took almost 2 weeks to get there, but it arrived safely and undamaged."
N.T, Powys, 21-Jun-2011
Because I Love You by Marilene Salles
"It is a great piece, exactly what I was looking for as a wedding gift for my fiancee. I was initially a little hesitant about buying art online, however the pictures and infomation supplied on artgallery.co.uk are extremeley helpful in
allowing you to know just what to expect.
Service was exceptional, especially in helping me to communicate with the artist in this instance to request a new piece."
T.G, South Yorkshire , 20-Jun-2011
Good Cat & Bad Cat by Irina Rumyantseva
"Very pleased with the artistic quality and character of both paintings. Excellent price.
Yes, shipping was reasonably fast and well packaged. Very pleased, I have access to artworks that I would not otherwise. I have made numerous purchases with you and am more than happy."
J.G, Cork, 19-Jun-2011
Furnace by Phillippa Leguen De Lacroix
"Absolutely love it. It arrived on time and in perfect condition. First time buying art on internet but definitely would again. As an Art novice, I know the look of Art I like, however I didn't know the artists that did it without looking through them - unless that's a good sales ploy to get customers to look through more artists, worked with us!!!!"
C.M, Gloucestershire, 17-Jun-2011
Moonwalk by Ricky Figg
"I loved the art, it was fab and I am looking forward to it being in my office. I love the fact that you can see it on walls before you buy and it gives you a sense of size. Your feedback methodology is a bit weird, why not 10 days after dispatch ask form feedback in a more formal way ,I have also purchased a huge (for me) painting and had no chance to send in feedback on that despite asking for a form or some way of delivering the feedback. I would also like to read other peoples feedback. So the only thing I could complain about is that the artist who did the moonwalk also makes very similar pictures and that sort of disappointed me as I thought my picture was very unique. I understand artists also do lots of paintings in a similar style and landscape but would have liked the new paintings to be more distinct in their own right. However I do love mine!"
G.H, Staffordshire, 17-Jun-2011
Happy Days by Ricky Figg
"Very happy with whole transaction. The picture is now framed and mounted and looks excellent - thinking about getting another to form a pair. I think it is very likely that we will purchase again from your site - original art at a very affordable price."
L.K, Peeblesshire, 15-Jun-2011
Shuttle Street by Martin Whittam
"Delighted with my purchase - just what I was looking for! Prompt delivery and arrived in perfect condition. First time buying over the internet but I think it's a great idea. Will definitely buy again now I've seen what the site has to offer."
C.M, Manchester, 15-Jun-2011
Helford Passage by Don Hoskin
"I like it very much. It was delivered on-time. It was in good condition however the matt was bent on two corners. I will have to purchase a new mat. I was glad to find the picture of my grandma's house. I do think that it could have had a sturdier mailing wrapper. The mailing wrapper was insufficient. A harder cardboard (maybe the weight of a matt) could have afforded better protection."
N.G, Pennsylvania , 14-Jun-2011
Blossoms by Hester Coetzee
"Yes the artwork was very good and friends have commented on how nice it was."
R.L, Felixstowe , 14-Jun-2011
Blue Cow by Jasvinder Singh
"I'm so happy with 'The Blue Cow'. I was having a bad day when I came across it on the website and since it arrived it has cheered me up no end. The thank you note from Jasvinder was a lovely touch, and the artwork itself is exactly what I was looking for. The slightly abstract style means that I can see something different everytime I look at it. The colours are vibrant and energetic and the piece has a lovely presence. Please pass on my compliments
to Jasvinder. 10 out of 10!!!!!!! Prompt delivery and superb packaging. the artwork was so well protected you could tell the artist really values his work and rightly so. In turn, this has made me treasure it all the more. Well done (again).
I love the wide range of choice of subject/media/style etc. and the variety
of price ranges means even the most modest budget is accommodated. Thanks for a great painting!!!!!
J.G, Cork, 14-Jun-2011
Companions by Natalie Rymer
"I would just like to say that the artwork by natalie rymer was absolutely fabulous, beautifully wrapped arriving ahead of schedule."

"Delivery was quite quick, packaged well and the art was very nice. We will and have recommend the gallery to family and friends and will probably be using it again."
E.B, Birmingham , 13-Jun-2011
Fisherman Pete by Laura Wall
"The artwork arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It was a gift and the recipient was delighted. The artist may like to know that when I had the picture framed, her handwritten information was covered by the framer's tape. I would definitely shop with you again."
R.T, Gloucestershire, 13-Jun-2011
The Family Tree by Deborah Norville
"Hi Aileen,
The painting has arrived and my husband loves it, just put it up and it looks fantastic.
Thank you to you for answering all my emails so promptly and to Charlotte for the swift secret phone call regarding the payment, I have been so impressed with the service and have been telling everyone, you really should give yourselves a pat on the back, Thank you.
Lastly but no mean least, the star of show has to be Deborah for painting us a personalised painting exactly how I had hoped and we are so pleased it really is a family heirloom to treasure for ever. Our four year old guessed straight away it was meant to be all of us out for a walk! Thank you really pleased and the personal card was also a lovely extra touch.
All please keep up the good, hard work. Thank you."
Ms E.C., Leicester, 12-Jun-2011
Street Moggies in Love by Lee Nicholls
"Very pleased, it was bought as a present and got a very good reaction. I was surprised by how closely it corresponded to the photo, I had expected some slight variation in colour or detail ( as it can be difficult to judge an artwork from a computer screen) but it was identical, and I was delighted. Wrapping was perfectly sufficient and the painting arrived in perfect condition. I think there is always a chance that it might not be what I imagined from the photo but the accessibility and range of artworks is superb. Also, I know they can be returned so it's not really a risk. Personally, I would enjoy the opportunity to make an offer for an artwork. I
have seen some which I love but were slightly beyond my budget, if there was an opportunity to make the artist an offer I would certainly have done so."
J.G, Cork, 11-Jun-2011
Reflection by Terry Wylde
"I was extremely pleased with the painting it was delivered on time, I would buy again from this artist on you website."

C.H, London, 10-Jun-2011
Across the Bay by Steve Phillips
"We very much liked the painting. It was delivered in time for us to take it abroad (to give as a present) and in well protected packaging. This is the first time I'v bought art over the internet but I'm now taken with the whole process which offers far more choice than you could possibly get from going to gallery after gallery (which I don't really have time to do anyway). The purchasing and delivery service was fine and I would recommend it to friends."
E.K, Cambridgeshire , 9-Jun-2011
Explosion by Lesley Finney
"It was a gift for my sisters 30th birthday - it was original and she had just brought a house so fit perfectly. She really liked it. The artwork was delivered on time (within 5 days as promised) - i even got a thank you card direct from the artist, which was such a nice touch
No issues - its by bank card and protected etc with insurance these days anyway. There was so much artwork to choose from - almost too much choice. I liked the filters to sort by price, or by size or by general type of art e.g. modern,
landscape etc but you could offer a deal of the week e.g. was £100 but now £75 - anything that is a good discount that also stands out so as a buyer, you don't have to sift through pages and pages of art. would like more room views - and
not all of the paintings have pictures of the full product, at different angels, where possible - please include as many pics as possible."
H.N, West Yorkshire , 9-Jun-2011
White Roses by Victoria Millington
"Nicely done on very average canvas|board so rather flimsy and difficult to frame. Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel fine about buying art online having tried and tested a few purchases now. Just ensuring the paintings that come direct from artists themselves (in certain cases i.e. 25% of those we received were insufficiently wrapped protected), are as well wrapped as the ones that come from you."
M.H, Corfu , 7-Jun-2011
Morning Again by Eric Jacks
"The painting is excellent. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition It's not so easy to get a 'feel' of the picture online. The colours in the actual painting were not exactly as the image online: the painting was brighter, with more yellow."
V.H, Hertfordshire , 6-Jun-2011
Ventian Door 7 by Maddalena Pacini
"Thanks for your email....I love the art that I bought, Venetian Doorway....It arrived promptly and in immaculate condition...I was a little dubious and a bit nervous buying art online as I don't have a lot of spare cash, like most others,so i really wanted to make sure i got it right...That painting was the only one of absolutely loads that i looked at, that i
thought would be perfect for me, as i'm in the first throws of a love affair with Italy!
Thankyou for a great service and beautiful painting."
S.B, Hampshire , 5-Jun-2011
Fish N Chips by Martin Whittam
"I am totally delighted with the painting. It was
delivered quickly and in perfect condition and is of really good quality. I found your website by chance when searching for art online and fell in love with this piece. Its now on my wall and I'm very happy with it. I will definitely be back as I now know I can buy original art for little more than I would pay for a print."
D.H, Norfolk , 3-Jun-2011
Going Home by Claire Barone
"I absolutely adore this piece of artwork. I am very happy with the service from you, the delivery and the condition of the painting.This
was the first time I purchased art over the internet and I was very pleased with the transaction. I have already told friends and family about your website."
S.P, South Yorkshire , 3-Jun-2011

Summer Haze by Brigette Hayden
"I am very pleased with the artwork, yes it was delivered on time and in good condition. I have gone on and bought a further piece from you over the internet and hopefuuly will continue to do so."
J.P, Nottinghamshire, 1-Jun-2011
Magnolia by Paula Oakley
"Art is pretty. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. It's a convenient way of buying. It would be nice if I could submit an offer for the painting to what I am prepared to pay for it. If the artist agrees then the customer will buy. This way I think it is more likely for you to sell more paintings. The only negative I will say is that I am looking at a picture of the
painting, which under the natural eye will look different and not as contrasting. I know you offer the 21 day policy to help buyers get around
this so this is fair enough."
A.S, London, 31-May-2011
A Day to Remember by Stella Dunkley
"A day to Remember is by far my favourite painting I have ordered from artgallery.co.uk so far. It is simply stunning! Very quick delivery as always and I look forward to ordering from you again in the future. Many thanks."
D.J, Kent, 31-May-2011
Turn Into the Light by Hester Coetzee
"Yes the picture arrived well wrappend and without any damage. The colour/suitabliliy etc was better than we wondered. The painting exceeded our expectation. And good value. We found you on the Internet and though maybe still harbour some uncertainties but have no great concerns. All excellent - many thanks."
M.O, Bedfordshire, 25-May-2011
Beach Huts by Vicki Griggs
"Hi, loved the artwork. There are a couple of things that could have been a little better, however. The corner was slightly crushed and there was no certificate of authenticity as advertised."

Home is Where the Heart is by Ona Haynes
"The art work I purchased is absolutely gorgeous. I have just moved house and am struggling to feel at home so it is very apt. Please let the artist know how delighted I was to receive it. It arrived very promptly and in perfect condition. As for the web site I am a big fan. I have bought from you before and will no doubt buy again."
H.M, Cheshire , 19-May-2011
Absorbed by Carmen Tyrrell
"The art I bought was gorgeous and I will buy more by Carmen Tyrell as soon as I am able. It was delivered in reasonable time and in perfect condition. There was a bank holiday weekend to make delivery a little slower. This is my first internet purchase of art. I was concerned that I would not get what I imagined as I am not good at visualising size, colour etc. The art was a little different to my expectation but it was super so that was not a problem. Everything has been fine. I have no suggestions for improvement based on service so received. The website is nice, easy to use and does all that it can to help me to visualise the pieces."
E.D, Oxfordshire , 19-May-2011
Guess Who 2 by Henri Cabot
"Lovely piece of art, well packed, the sender went to some trouble to get the picture to us as soon as posible even though we said there was no rush. A very pleasant buying experience again and we would definately recommend it."
E.B, Birmingham , 17-May-2011
Winter Tree by Jason Pierson
"Arrived quickly and in perfect condition.
I was drawn to it on the computer screen and it is just perfection in real life.It would be safe to say that I am delighted with this purchase. Please pass on a big thank you to the artist for me. Also thanks to yourselves for making the ordering process easy and problem free."
J.W, South Lanarckshire , 17-May-2011
Morning Mist by Deborah Norville
"The art was bought for my wife as a gift and she is extremely happy with the picture, I really like the style and am following the artist now
The art work was delivered quickly and in perfect condition , the packaging was really secure and well padded. This is the first time I have bought any original artwork, the
experience was easy and trouble free, I will definitely do it again. The service was very good so I wouldn't change anything at the moment."
D.B, Lancashire , 15-May-2011
Sisters by Claire Barone
"Could you please thank Claire Barone for sending my picture so quickly, it was her painting called 'Sisters'. It arrived at my parents on friday
morning and it was a relief that it was here for the christening tomorrow.
I am so pleased with the painting, I absolutely LOVED it. The picture is just the perfect present and the detailing is lovely. My mum is now looking at one to buy my sister-in-law for her new baby.
Thank-you.
Ms J.W., Swindon, Wiltshire, 14-May-2011
Spanish Fire by Bryan Connor
"The painting was stunning, it was delivered by the artist himself, who was very courteous and friendly. It was very simple to buy art this way and I was going to give you my opinions but I couldn't find any email address on the site to respond to. I think that I was on ebay or similar and followed a link, which led to another link and I just got carried away."
E.B, Birmingham , 12-May-2011
Newgate Market, York; Hayes Island Snack Bar; Otley Market, Yorkshire & Peterborough Guildhall by Ken Hayes
"The paintings are very good, the buying experience was easy and pleasant and I would recommend it to anyone looking for art.
As mentioned previously, I could not find an email link on the site and that is my only negative, but I may have missed it with so much to look at. The only problem was that all four paintings were sent together in one quite narrow tube. I think if one had been sent in it it would have been O.K. but with four they came out all curled up. We have had to try to straighten them by putting books on top of them for a couple of weeks and they are now a lot better. If only a wider tube could have been sent it would have avoided the problem."
E.B, Birmingham , 12-May-2011
Waiting for the Boats; Waiting for the Boats 2 & Fishermen by Lee Jenkinson
"They are beautifully drawn and were sent in a manner that kept them nice and flat and well protected."
E.B, Birmingham , 12-May-2011
Big Fish Little Fish by Katheryn Clark & Water Lily by Ann Pearson
"I did indeed receive the big fish little fish painting and am very happy with it. I have no complaints atall about the packing of both picures. They were well protected. Your staff were extremely polite and helpful. My only gripe would be that if one of the pictures made it on time ie. before Easter then perhaps the other could have been posted off in time aswell. Quite understand if the artist was away though. Reason being if one was handing it over to family/visitor etc as a gift one would have been unable to. REALLY pleased with both purchases which have exceeded expectations."
S.G, London, 12-May-2011
Gabriels Wharf, Exeter Quay by Janet Davies
" have dealt with other galleries over the Internet where they regard a frame as an essential part of the artwork and have selected frames to
enhance a picture. Their judgment in this process may achieve a better result than we would have achieved. In this instance although we have a
high opinion of Janet's work, the painting arrived unframed despite the fact that I had asked for it to be framed before delivery and asked to
be advised of the cost.
Regarding how we found your gallery, I was shopping online for local Devon art. One has to place some trust in the seller and the accuracy of
their description of a work when buying online as with all other areas of online shopping. Art differs from other areas only to the extent
that the description is usually based on the individual opinion of the seller."
J.R., Exeter, Devon, 12-May-2011
Spring Is Here by Geoffrey Winterflood
"Nice item, and very well packed."
J.S, Norfolk , 10-May-2011
Newsagents, Liverpool 2 by Andrew Reid Wildman
"The art I bought was beautiful. I'm hoping to add to it as I think the pieces are unique and set the artist apart from others. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I love to buy art over the internet as it's easy to look at many different types in one place. I found the service to be everything I expected. I was kept informed via email and also received a tracker number so I could monitor where my item
was in the delivery process. I adore the site. It's easy to use, the work is showcased well and I
appreciate background information about the artist."
J.W, Devon , 10-May-2011

Cross 1 by Carrie May
"Really lovely , works well and a good talking point, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Up to a modest budget of say 300 pounds I'm prepared to purchase works I like
without seeing them "in the flesh". Very close up shots would be good to be able to see the depth of the work and finer points and would encourage me to spend more without having to physically inspect the piece."
A.F., Colchester, 5-May-2011
The Poppyfields by Lesley Blackburn
An absolute bargain, I would have paid 4 times as much for this piece and I'm now watching what the artists lists in the future."

"A talented artist whos work I will buy in the future. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Up to a modest budget of say 300 pounds Im prepared to purchase works I like without seeing them "in the flesh".
Very close up shots would be good to be able to see the depth of the work and finer points and would encourage me to spend more without having to physically inspect the piece. Glad I found you !!
A.F, Essex, 5-May-2011
Poppy Dreams by David Moore
"I love the Poppy Dreams painting, it was just as I imagined from the website. It was packaged really well and delivered in good time. The artist was very accommodating in that he put a layer of matt varnish on the painting for me before despatch. I found the Art Gallery website on a Google search and have used it again since this purchase. I am now addicted!"
D.B, North Yorkshire, 4-May-2011
Thoughtfulness by Natalie Rymer

"I cannot tell you how much I love this painting. I have hung it in the hall where it will be seen by everyone who enters the house, but I don't
think I get as much pleasure out of it as I could having it hung there. I want to carry it round & hang it in whichever room I'm in. I am new to
collecting original pieces, I have 3 other originals and this is my favourite by miles.
Art was delivered on time and VERY well packaged. Arrived in perfect condition, with a lovely note from the artist which made it even more special to receive. I think it is fine to buy art over the internet. Standing in a gallery
looking for pieces is all well and good, but I love being able to browse so many artists, styles, price ranges and be able to log off and think about it. I can keep checking back to make sure that I still love something before I buy it without having to leave my armchair! I would like to see a search facility based on colour. I have thought about buying original art for a room and need it to fit in with other pieces
so would like to be able to add a colour filter."

The Shooting Party by Ken Hayes

Affordable Art Dscf2237 BY Eric Aristidou
"The artwork is absolutely what we were looking for. It is beautiful and interesting. We are looking forward to showing it off in years to come, but
mostly to looking at it and enjoying it ourselves. It was in prefect condition and delivered on time
We were slightly nervous about buying on-line but it wasn't too much money so it was fine.
The certificate of authenticity ended up being under another name, even though I bought it. It would be good to allow buyers to designate an
owner.
R.B., London, 28-Apr-2011

However it was exactly as I hoped and the colours a true representation of how they appeared on the website. The picture arrived promptly and in good condition and I was kept informed about delivery.
I cannot think of any room for improvement and would use your website again."

B&W 1 by Hamid Hersel
"Very pleased with the artwork - ideal for what we wanted and looks even better than expected. Delivered on time and in perfect condition, excellent service. Good way for enthusiastic amateurs to view and buy art. Like the virtual environment - very helpful - could perhaps expand this to a few other house views eg hallway, stairway wall ? Not sure if this appropriate but expand to include international artists? Enjoyed looking and using the site - thought it was user friendly
Mr M.L., Market Harborough, 15-Apr-2011

Skyline Tryptic by Emma Boileau
"It was a gift and the recipient, who had chosen it from the website, was delighted. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I would be uneasy about buying art for myself, but would be reassured by an easy returns policy for items that didn't suit. I was extremely pleased with your service - there was a slight delay because I emailed the artist direct (through your website) with a query and she was unable to reply immediately - I don't think she had my email address and had to channel the reply via you - but that wasn't a major issue."
C.C, London, 13-Apr-2011

Cambridge, Magdalene Street by Monika Umba
"Beautiful, looks just like it did on the website, now has pride of place over our living room fireplace. I've bought three works from you and they have all met or exceeded expectations. Would probably be more nervous about spending more than about £300 on something without seeing it first."
S.H, Cambridge, 7-Apr-2011
Joy by Claire Barone
"Loved the artwork. Very pleased indeed. Perfect. I was unsure about buying art over the internet in case there were discrepancies with the colours but pleased to say, everything was fine. Not sure I would spend money on a very expensive piece without seeing it first but I guess with the return facility, it's not such a risk."
K.H, West Midlands, 7-Apr-2011
Love Bouquet by Jean Tatton Jones
"I love my painting and am really happy with it. It looks exactly like the image on your web site. Yes, packed perfectly with a certificate and lovely note from the artist. It's a great opportunity to own a piece of original art. I intend to buy more and I'm recommending it to my friends. Also the cost of my original painting (plus a mount and frame) costs less than a print from Ikea! I found the service to be excellent and will definitely use it again."
M.M, Glasgow, 7-Apr-2011
Naturmort by Irina Rumyantseva
"I really enjoy looking at this picture. It was really exciting to receive it so quickly and it makes a real difference to the room I have put it in. Everyone that has seen it has been similarly impressed.

right through the purchasing experience.
I wish you all the best."
S.I, East Lothian , 3-Apr-2011
Unconditional Love by Carol Webb
"I purchased the piece of artwork for my sister who thought it was amazing. It made her 40th birthday very special. My father who is an amateaur artist was impressed with the quality of the art and how the artist brought the cat alive. THe original print was damaged but this was the fault of the Royal mail and not the artist and her packaging. After a request to purchase a replacement I was very pleased that she replaced the print at no extra charge, I am hoping the royal mail honour the compensation claim I have put in and I will re-imburse the artist at this point. I was very impressed with the customer service and the prompt delivery of the order. I must admit I was apprehensive initially, but I am so please with my two purchases I will have no concerns in the future, if dealing with this art gallery. I received a 5 star service. I was able to use the website with relative ease, however I found serching for my topic difficult. It was difficult to narrow down the search and hard to go back to prints I was interested in unless I made a wish list. For example my original search of white cats came up with a number of pieces of art work that were not relevant but searching cats came up with too many prints to search through. I will definatley be recommending art gallery to my friends. Exceptional service."
K.H, Yorkshire, 3-Apr-2011
Fruit Table by Janice Jung
"Loved the art work. It is now proudly framed on my wall. Delivered in supper quick time, well wrapped. All I can give is possitive freed back both to the artist and art gallery. Painting didn't arrive with certificate of authentisity but artgallery quickly sorted that."
J.F, Monmouthshire , 2-Apr-2011

Hysteria by Elizabeth O'Neill
"I love it.. it's superb. Delivery - could be improved that's for sure, had to contact you regarding the fact that there was no tracking number (though it turned up the day after I sent the email). It was in perfect condition I'd do it again.. in fact am looking for another piece now
."
L.D, Cambridgeshire , 1-Apr-2011
Rush Hour by Joe Trodden
"I like it apart from the mounting board colour.
Delivered early. Mounting board bent, which I'm having changed anyway. The picture itself seems to be fine. I did ring you about it. I have bought many pieces this way and have never encountered a problem. Very good."

W.R, Reading , 1-Apr-2011
Outrunning the Storm by Rosie Searle
"Overall I am very pleased with the artwork I bought. You were very responsive when I told you that my purchase hadn't ben confirmed. The images on the site captured it well. Unfortunately the glass was broke when it arrived and so I will have to get it remounted and the frame repaired. I thought the site was user friendly and I would consider buying again."
C.R, London, 31-Mar-2011
I Scream by Simon Hucknall
"This was my second order from Artgallery.co.uk. Both items arrived within 5 days as promised and were in perfect condition and well packaged. I purchased two items from the same artist (Simon Hucknall), and was delighted by both. As this was my first experience of buying art online, I was pleasantly surprised how quick and efficient the process
was. I would have no hesitation in reccommending Artgallery.co.uk to my
friends."
R.T, Sunderland, 30-Mar-2011
Beached by Paul Seymour
"Very very pleased with the photo. Looks absolutely stunning now it's framed and on the wall. Yes, arrived in good time & in perfect condition. Sometimes a little nervous about not being able to see the item 'in the
flesh' but the photos on the site usually give an accurate representation. Very happy with the service received."
A.B, Bedfordshire, 29-Mar-2011

Dreaming of You by Tracy Jolly
"the painting is in situ, looks great and undamaged! Yes was delivered on time and undamaged. Your webpage is excellent with a
huge amount of choice and is great to see what's available but I would only use it to order after I had seen the original. And finally we came across your company whilst visiting Malvern Theatre."
M.M, Worcestershire , 28-Mar-2011
Coming Home by Stewart Wilson
"It's beautiful, stunning. Nothing compares to seeing a piece in person, however for many whom work long hours with families it can offer the solution to spending time viewing art in galleries. The communication is fantastic, the connection with the Artist and the speed of delivery is excellent. Great. Functionality is key with Web sites, artgallery.co.uk serves it's purpose well."
K.B, Surrey, 28-Mar-2011
Forest at Noon by Alex Macpherson
"The Forest at noon which I purchased from you was delivered quickly and safely and is now hanging in my hall.I like the variations of green in the wood which contrasts with the golden light of the sunny glade. I have bought a number of works of art from you and they have all been
delivered safely,which is not always the case with art delivered over the internet."
R.M, Derbyshire , 28-Mar-2011

L.B, Surrey, 26-Mar-2011
Dream Chaser by Hester Coetzee
"The art itself is fantastic it looks 10 times better in person. The delivery time I think is a bit slow, most other sites can do it in 2 days although the delivery is free which is really good. The picture came in perfect condition and I do not mind buying over the net as locally there is not a lot
on offer in the way of buying art. I am at the moment looking to buy another 2 pieces, Further more, I phoned the customer services line yesterday and the girl I spoke to was fantastic, very helpful and cheerful, am well
impressed with this site. Great job."
S.B, Ayrshire , 24-Mar-2011

Starfish Beach by Paula Oakley
"The painting arrived quickly and in perfect condition. It is the first figurative art work I've purchased and I'm really pleased with it.The artistic detail portrayed around the boy on the sand is marvellous.This is the best observation and painting of wet sand I've seen yet. Buying art over the internet is always a risky business,but your firm always gives a quick safe delivery."
R.M, Derbyshire , 24-Mar-2011
Bridge of Sighs by Tracey Unwin
"The painting called the Bridge of Sighs by Tracey Unwin is very nice and looks amazing on the wall. It was for a birthday present for my daughter who loves Venice and she was very pleased. Postage and packing were very good,
the painting arriving quickly. I would have no problem with buying art on the internet."
S.B, Shropshire , 24-Mar-2011
Seriously Scarlet by Jan Peters
"It was a birthday present for my wife and we were both very pleased with the painting.
The artwork was in perfect condition. The only problem we had with delivery was that DHL did not deliver it on the day it was due because they said that they had too many deliveries that day, unfortunately it was the day of my wife's birthday. I was very angry with the courier.
I was very pleased with my first experience of buying online and was very pleased with all aspects of the service provided by your service.
ArtGallery.co.uk was recommended by a friend. We both really like Jan Peters work and will definitely buy other artwork from her."
T.S, Berkshire , 24-Mar-2011
Waltzing One Summer by Kevin Oldham
"I was very pleased with the painting - the quality actually looked better than on the website. Yes, it was delivered very quickly, properly packed and in perfect order. Very enthusiastic - have bought via online sites in the past and would so so again...I don't have time to visit galleries - also, I prefer being able to take time browsing and revisit sites a number of times before committing to a purchase - I probably spent 3/4 hours looking at all works before deciding to buy. My selection was made on suitability to match my
decor rather than price - although my budget was not unlimited, in the end my purchase was very much within it (which was a bonus!). I have had an iPad for a number of months and this has improved the experience of online art buying (as it has with all online shopping) due to ease of use, portability, ease of navigation etc. Buy nearly everything online now as live in quite a rural area."
L.C, Cheshire , 23-Mar-2011
Love Grows Strong On the Rainbow Tree by Terry Wylde
"Very pleased. Although there was an initial problem as a customer I felt more than happy with the product, its delivery and the condition of the work received. More options on the search menu perhaps. I would and have happily recommended it to friends."
M.H, Bury , 23-Mar-2011
Tea in Provence by Lesley Blackburn
"The picture is lovely and looks good in the room. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Purchasing on the internet is fine, but I would never buy a picture without having seen it in "the flesh", we saw ours in the Malvern exhibition."

F.T, Shropshire , 21-Mar-2011
Heron by Jean Tatton Jones
"This was the piece of artwork that arrived damaged. It was not the fault of
the artist but had clearly had a couple of very heavy square ended objects thrown down on top of it. Not Royal Mail's finest hour. I was very grateful to you and to the artist for arranging a replacement piece so quickly. It now looks fine on the wall."
F.T, Shropshire , 21-Mar-2011
L'aube by Audrey Walas
"Great. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition."

Lace Me Up by Janine Leach
"I am absolutely thrilled with this work by Janine Leach. It is a lovely atmospheric artwork. After seeing it I had to buy it as I just couldn't get the image out of my mind. The way the light is painted over her back and shoulders is just beautiful. It is a work that will give us a lot of pleasure. The artwork was delivered quickly and safely. I have bought a few pieces from the Artgallery and find it easy and I know I can always speak to Aileen if I have any queries. I found the website easy to navigate and the search facility enables you to hone your search and find the right artwork. I am sure I will be back for more in the future. In fact my wishlist is growing by the minute!!!!"
J.R, Midlothian, 19-Mar-2011
Poppies with Palette Knife by Super Cosmic
"The item Poppies with palette knife ,arrived safely and in perfect condition. I love the boldness of the artists approach and her steady control of the palette knife. A very bright canvas which stands out and attracts the eye. I enjoy buying art from your site although I have been disappointed at times with art that."
R.M, Derbyshire , 19-Mar-2011
Flowers Ablaze by Terry Wylde
"I liked it. Although I think it would look better in a frame with a border rather than stretched. I'll be putting it in a frame once I find one I like. Yes, perfect. Not great, I was experimenting. I think I would prefer to buy after looking at the piece in the flesh. Not really from what I saw. I really liked the 'test drive' feature. Although this did cause me to reject more pieces than consider them!"
P.P, London, 18-Mar-2011
Dawn on Hardley Staithe by Stella Godbold
"Very pleased - although not quite the colour and size I had thought. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Was apprehensive about buying art over the internet but would now reccommend."

Elephants Never Forget by Terry Wylde
"I am over the moon with my first original piece of artwork. Artwork was delivered in time and was in perfect condition. I am very happy to buy art over the internet but I am not sure if
I would be prepared to buy something of a high value (+£100) without seeing it first. I have since bought a further two pieces by the same
artist."
A.B, Essex, 16-Mar-2011
Red P by Elena Strygina
"I think it has something that I didn't otherwise see on the site. It's elegant with a bit of eastern European exoticism. It was delivered in very good time and there was no damage. It included a postcard which was friendly and polite with some advice on how to frame it. I liked that. Broadly, fine. It makes a difference that it's possible to deal with a human being if you need to. A lot seems to depend on the artist. I suppose that if the artist fails to deliver you need to notice and chase, but that's not relevant here."
A.G, Wiltshire , 16-Mar-2011
Dreaniness, Two Vases of Flowers, Flower Cup & Cello PLayer by Zhana Viel
"Fortunately, I like them as they came four strong. They seem pretty original and they make me smile because she has a good sense of humour (it appears to me). They appeared almost instantaneously as if I had rubbed a magic lamp. The packaging was intact - it was a zany parcel with a bale of scrap cardboard included to separate the items. To add to what I've said elsewhere the most positive thing is that you get to see and assess a large number of artists. If all goes well you can go from start to finish without getting out of bed. With artists like Zana Viel, no. Different artists might create different circumstances."

Captured by the Light by Hester Coetzee
"Very nice, would like it even bigger! Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. First time I've bought art over the internet and I would do it again. I live in Monaco and it's not in the list of countries you can deliver to. But I made a phone call and someone nicely arranged it for me to be delivered."
S.L, Monaco , 15-Mar-2011
Snap Shot by Stuart Dalby
"Art work bought for my partner as a Valentine's day gift - he loved it!! Delivered on time and in perfect condition. I do most of my business, shopping, banking etc, online. This is the first time I have bought art on the internet and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone. Your website is well laid out and very easy to navigate. I can't think of any way you could improve on your current, excellent service."
K.M, Sheffield, 14-Mar-2011
The Storm by Tracey-Ann Marrison
"Yes Very pleased with my painting. Delivered on time and in perfect condition. Happy to buy over internet."
D.S, Bristol, 14-Mar-2011
Faded Icons by Nicki Macrae
"Nicki MacRae's diptych 'Faded Icons' arrived safely, having been very carefully packaged. They form a powerful and evocative work of art that sparkles under the landing lights. My wife was delighted to receive them as a Valentine's Day present. As with so many of the artists at 'artgallery' a friendly card and note helped to make the picture that bit more personal. One can spend hours looking around your site, and our stairwell and landing are now beginning to look like an art gallery!"
F.T, Shropshire , 13-Mar-2011
Ocean by Paul Shiers
"Loved it. Yes it arrived on time and in perfect condition."
A.S, London, 13-Mar-2011
Big Wild Poppies by Tracey Unwin
"Simply beautiful. The handwrtten card from the artist was a nice touch. Took quite a long time to arrive to Berlin but did so in perfect condition. This was my first experience and despite my previous doubts this has changed my
mind."
R.V, Berlin, 13-Mar-2011
The Voyage by Tracey Unwin
"I think it is fantastic, Tracey has a wide range of style but I prefer the 'traditional'. The Voyage is the 2nd of her works I have bought. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I am normally a bit dubious about buying anything over the Internet but have recommended the site to my friends."
S.S, Berkshire , 12-Mar-2011
A Woman with a Cow by Isabel Adonis
"Thanks - I like the art work I purchased - although with a few reservations. I don't think the true ''character'' of the piece was visible on the screen. The art work was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Happy to buy over the internet - test drive in the sample rooms is perfect - gives a great feel for how its going to look in situ. Lots of close ups helps - especially if the piece is 3D , mixed media, collage.
Service improvement. If the art work is going to be delivered by Royal Mail for example I would like to know before I place an order. Some delivery companies are very bad at delivering and making alternative arrangements and their depots are far out of town and a real treck to get to. So if its going to be delivered by one of these I want to give an alternative delivery address. Royal Mail is definately best on this count as they have more accessible collection points and better delivery arrangements."
D.S, Bristol, 11-Mar-2011
Tree of All Knowing and Abstract Poppies by Casimira Mostyn
"Lovely artwork. The poppies particularly make me smile whenever I look at them. Delivered promptly in perfect condition."
Thoughts in a Broken Mind by Simon Hucknell
"One of my favourite pieces and looks even better than it did on the website. Prompt delivery and well packaged. Really talented artist."
The Hot Sunset by Bali Bangha Jenkins
"Another beautiful painting and so much richer and more textured than I was expecting. Very good service and arrived in good condition."
Fireworks by Simon Slater
"I love this painting. I've hung it over my workspace to spark my own creative thought process. Just a riot of colour and texture beautifully executed. Again great service and delivery."
Jennifer Ward
"This is a beautiful and delicate work. I love the use of tiny words within the body of the painting. Great service and very nicely framed."
Water Moon by Farroll Earley
"I really like the painting and it looks great hung with a lamp near by so the moon actually looks like it is shining. The service was poor though. Delivery took over two weeks and the tracking number was wrong."
J.O, Cardiff, 10-Mar-2011
Happy Day with My Love by Adeniyi Adevi "Good. Yes very prompt delivery, good packaging and perfect condition. I felt a little skeptical about spending the big bucks online. Would like to buy bigger/ better pieces , more expensive pieces- but dont feel confident spending 500/600 pounds online. If the artist rating had more concrete stuff - like number of total pieces sold (with time at which sold) , rating by a panel of known art critics/ artists or a media house would help inspire confidence in the artist''s work, otherwise there is no way to judge the worth of a piece except by eye. In short if I was more confident of a pantings worth I would be willing spend more."
M.J, Essex, 9-Mar-2011
Tumult by Jeanette Buckley
"Really happy with the picture we bought - and it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Thank you. Had never bought art over the internet before - but would do it again after my purchase from you. Being able to 'hang' the picture in a room on your website, before buying, was very helpful."
S.P, Cheshire , 9-Mar-2011
The New Red Beach Ball (Commission) by Joanna Beal
"I absolutely love this painting. It is painted so beautifully and with such whimsical charm. I can't take my eyes off it as it draws you in and I know I will buy from Joanna in the future. The artwork was delivered within a couple of days and was extremely well packaged with the certificate of authenticity and a lovely card from Joanna which was a great touch. I have bought art on the internet before mainly from the Artgallery. The website is great and Aileen is always at the end of a phone if you need any advice. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again. The website is very easy to navigate and this was a very positive experience all round."
J.R, Midlothian, 8-Mar-2011
There Was a Coo by Scott Henderson
"We love it! Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition and with a kind note from the artist. We would purchase from him again. I feel very comfortable buying art over the internet. One note - we are not from the UK and our interest was in art that reminded us of our time here. We are in Edinburgh and didn't find too much specific to being here. I don't know how you improve that or try to target visitors
to the UK. I was looking for Scottish art as a gift for my hubby for Valentine's Day."
A.P, Florida, USA , 8-Mar-2011
Squares by Lesley Finney
"We absolutely love it....it's hanging in our beach house, which is modern. Despite excellent packaging, the painting was crushed in 1 corner,
breaking the frame and tearing 2 inches of canvas. I have repaired as best I can. It was disappointing, but what is done is done, and it certainly was packaged very well. Will definitely do it again. There is a risk involved, but i think that is discounted."
R.B, Kent, 7-Mar-2011
Fishermen by Izabela Jarzemska
"I love the art I have purchased, I am very happy with it .The work was delivered on time within perfect condition .The Artist didnt include a letter of authenticity, however once requested this was then provided a few days later,yet still didnt include any details of the name of the painting and seemed to not be fully completed, therefore this was a little disappointing."
C.G, Bristol, 6-Mar-2011
In The Land of the Green and the Grey by Richard Longden
"Stunning, it looks perfect. Yes, pretty quick delivery and in good condition. It was easier in many ways buying online. I've got a little boy and it would be almost impossible to choose anything from a gallery. I can also filter by price/size which is brilliant. The searching facility could be a bit smarter."
R.A, Nottingham, 6-Mar-2011
Sunset Gold by Terry Wylde
"We were delighted with the artwork we ordered. It was delivered on time and beautifully packaged. This is our second piece bought over the internet from your website and we have been delighted with both pieces. It was reassuring to find out that there was a 21 day guarantee period, although we only established that after the orders were placed. We have been very pleased with the service provided."
H.W, West Sussex , 5-Mar-2011
Spliff Stamp by Steven Lynch
"Good as expected. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. On the article for sale, there was an option to have the artwork laminated at extra cost but there was no pay option for this extra option or
cost, I emailed/messaged along with my paypal payment enquiring how to pay the extra option for laminating but I received no reply and the artwork came unlaminated, I would have paid for this option as this is what I wanted."
D.L, Lancashire , 3-Mar-2011
Star Gazing by Debra Senior
"The artwork is fabulous ... my fiance has been raving about it ever since it arrived. On time, perfect condition, couldn't have asked for more. I wouldn't buy large/expensive works over the internet as I prefer to see them "in the flesh" first but, smaller works - its great!"
H.G, Leicestershire, 2-Mar-2011
Daybreak by Sharon Deegan
"We are thrilled with the piece of artwork we bought and will be commissioning the artist for an additional piece in the near future. The artwork was delivered in good time and in good condition. We have not bought art over the internet before, but would definitely do so again through your website, due to the excellent service. I do not think there is anything you could do to improve your service, however we would have liked to have known how to provide our positive feedback to the artist before now. The artist included an additional photo of her work, in situ above a fireplace, which helped us make the decision to buy the piece as it gave the perspective of size, colour etc beautifully."
H.W, West Sussex , 2-Mar-2011
Almost Nude by Keith McBride
"This is my third purchase from the artgallery.co.uk website. I think that speaks volumes of how pleased I have been with the service. More importantly all the art work has proved to be really good."

Green Landscape by Angelina Shorter
"Thank you for your message concerning feedback. I am pleased with the painting Green Landscape.It arrived safely and was
well packed. Your web site is easy to navigate and gives a wide range of well priced
items. The only concern I have with my purchase is that the painting was not
signed and there was no document of authentification to go with it. I look forward to searching your site for new pieces of art in the
future."
R.M, Derbyshire , 28-Feb-2011
First Love by Brian Evans
" I love the art I have purchased, I am very happy with it .The work was delivered on time in perfect condition .The Artist didn't include a letter of authenticity however once requested this was then provided a few days later. I was nervous about buying art over the internet but now after doing so I am reassured that it was a successful purchase.I found the website through google but it did take a long time to find it as I was searching for some artwork for about 2 months and your website was the last I found. To improve I would prefer if you didnt have an 0845 phone number to contact you.
Ms C.G., Bristol, 28-Feb-2011
Tranquil Giraffes by Charlene Grant

Red Heat by Sandra Francis
"Very powerful, wonderful colours. Yes the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. A little reticient, as you can never really know what you're getting until it arrives and you put it in the intended location, but as long as there's an adequate returns policy, I'm more confident having used ArtGallery.co.uk
- just wish I had more wall space to fill now!"
G.B, Cheshire , 26-Feb-2011
Sunset Coast by Terry Wylde
"I am replying happily to your e-mail to let you know the painting that I purchased from your site, sunset Coast, is a beautiful painting and exceeded my expetations, hanging in pride of place.

I had recently ordered one of her beautiful paintings, 'Ocean de chocolat II' and it has just been delivered. I was not disappointed! Ocean de Chocolat II is stunning and looks beautiful in its hanging place. The service you provided was efficeient and The personal touch from Stella was welcome and makes this painting all the more special. She is a truly tallented artist with a wonderful eye for colour and detail. Thank-you so much!"
Ms N.M., Walshaw, Bury, Lancashire, 22-Feb-2011
Early Winter Fields by Tracey Waghorne
"This was the first time that I have used the internet to buy artwork. The painting by Tracey Waghorne is wonderful, and I have improved it by putting Schott Mirogard gallery-standard glass on it. Brushwork now outstandingly
clear. Tracey Waghorne sent the picture very well protected and wrapped, and she included a very pretty card with a friendly message. A small touch like that does make a difference!
With a guaranteed right to return a piece of art one does not take to, buying pictures on the internet seems a reasonable thing to do. One has a wide choice and can return anything that disappoints. Your website is good; it is easy to navigate and seems to work well. Many thanks, and congratulations to Tracey Waghorne on a wonderful painting."
F.T, Shropshire , 22-Feb-2011

Morning Hare by Seonaid Parnell

New Red Beach Ball by Joanna Beal
"Joanna, just writing to let you know that I have arrived back and your painting is absolutely stunning. I thought it looked lovely in the pictures but it is nothing to what it is in real life. The way you have painted the light is just gorgeous. The girl is painted beautifully and the children have named her Amelia, don't ask me why. I just love love love it. The place I have put it I can see it at all times. You are so very talented. It was also a lovely touch to put a card in. I have very much enjoyed this collaboration with you and hope to do it again in the future. I definitely see you have a very bright future with your artwork. Anyway thanks again. The Robertson clan absolutely love your painting."
J.R, Midlothian, 19-Feb-2011

White Horses by Elizabeth O'Neill
"Good value. Colours not quite as expected. Yes, the artwork delivered on time and in perfet condition. Colours are a problem. Otherwise OK for new items. Would not risk much money on old works where condition matters. Would have liked more background from the artist on the work itself, eg what inspired it."
A.H, Cumbria , 18-Feb-2011

Little Malvern by Ken Hayes

The Violin Player by Zhana Viel
"I loved my painting The Violin Player the moment I saw it and received it only two days after purchase which was terrific. It was well packaged and your emails keeping me in touch with its delivery progress were most helpful. Your very efficient and user friendly website and follow-up service has encouraged me to big three additional paintings. I really enjoy being able to browse through so much diverse art work and the test drive facility is great."
C.P, Daventry , 15-Feb-2011
Rocky Horror & Donkey by Scott Henderson
"Fantastic - Scott Henderson's cartoon characters have real personality; they
tell a tale and make you smile as you connect with them. Scott's enthusiasm and affection for his subject comes through in his artwork. It was a really nice touch to receive a note from him along with his artwork. The whole process from purchase to delivery was faultless."
S.B, Olney , 15-Feb-2011
City by the Lake by Tracey Unwin
"I love it."
J.L.J, Herts , 15-Feb-2011

I think you offer a fabulous service and as an artist myself I exhibit on your site."
K.N, Gourock , 14-Feb-2011
Seated Female Nude 1 by Rosie Blackshaw
"Received the artwork in timely fashion within 5 days. Pleased with the piece HOWEVER the royal mail folded the package and so the artwork has a crease down the centre !!! The package did say do not fold but it was ignored. I am weighting paper to negate crease. LOVE the gallery on line and will use it gain
but will perhaps stick to framed or canvassed pieces."
N.T, Kent, 13-Feb-2011
Love Tree by Jean Tatton Jones

I will be recommending this site to my friends, it is fantastic and the process so smooth.
Thank you!"
Ms LW, London, 11-Feb-2011
Underworld by Elizabeth O'Neill
"I thought buying over the internet was great and would do so again. Your site was very easy to use and set out well. I liked the fact that I could search by artist and see a small selection of their work at a glance to help make my choice...very clever. I am very pleased with Elizabeth's work However a small thing is that one of the frames is a little warped. Therefore when they hang side by side one bows out in the middle. This is not so noticable when looking straight on but is when you stand or sit in any other position. Also one is slightly larger than the other and hangs about 2mm lower, despite being exactly in line at the top. This may also be because of the warp. Overall I am pleased. I have an original piece of art that goes perfectly in my dining room."
C.P, Herts, 10-Feb-2011
Dawn at Bathpool Cornwall by Alan Kingwell
"A really wonderful painting from a very talented artist. I was reall pleased to have a card included from Alan Kingwell and would be grateful if you could advise him that the painting is giving us much pleasure to look at and
we will be looking out to buy further paintings by him. The painting arrived within about 7 days of purchase and was in perfect condition. Clearly you take a bit of a risk buying a painting over the internet but i did my research on Alan and looked at some of his other paintings online and I am extremely pleased with my purchase. the service generally speaking was very good, however the painting appeared on a number
of websites at different prices and were out of date but this was not apparent. I found the Art Gallery by googling Alan Kingwell."
J.R, Norfolk , 10-Feb-2011
Rush Hour by Alison Johnson
"Love the painting. Delivered in good condition but would have expected delivery a little
quicker. A very real alternative but i would still have to see item in flesh before purchase. Artgallery i found to be very responsive to any question that I had and I felt valued."
S.M, Worcestershire , 10-Feb-2011
Red Lilies by Tracey Waghorn
"We love the painting and thought delivery was very efficient and quick. I appreciated the thank you card from the artist. As I didn't check the measurements properly I didn't account for the mount and therefore didn't realise how small it was. I appreciate this was my fault."
S.S, Manchester, 10-Feb-2011
Rainbow Garden 3 by Claire Barone
"Love the art we bought. Delivered on time, wrapped very well and in perfect condition. Like buying art over the internet - lots of pictures of different aspects of the painting definitely help. No, great website, easy to use, artist and head office were both very communicative and helpful. Friend gave us vouchers."
C.R, Surrey, 9-Feb-2011
Early Winter Fields by Tracy Waghorn
"I am writing to say that I bought a picture through you for the first time last week, and that I am pleased by the ease of ordering, and the prompt and friendly way in which the artist, Tracey Waghorn, dealt with everything.
The painting, one of her lovely winter landscapes ("Early Winter Fields"), was with me in two working day! It came with a friendly note in a greetings card and we look for ward to enjoying it for many years.
I was so pleased by the variety of artwork on your site, and the reasonable price of most of it, that I have ordered a couple more works, by NickiMacrae and Hester Coetzee. I look forward to their joining Tracey Waghorn's work on our walls."
F.T., Shropshire, 6-Feb-2011
Walk the Rocks by Terry Wylde
"I love the art work I bought, I think it's 2nd or 3rd work by this artist. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel much happier about buying art over the internet, since buying from you. Perhaps a facility on the site that allows you to leave a message directly to the artist. Otherwise, a great company and service and love
doing business with you."
M.F, Norfolk , 6-Feb-2011
Dreams by the Sea by Julia Everett
"It's superb - really beautiful in any light and fits perfectly in the room; a real focal point. Absolutely - hand delivered less than 24 hours after I'd bought it. Excellent service!

M.P, Surrey, 6-Feb-2011
Lamplight by Terry Wylde

I'm hoping to be able to make many more purchases from artgallery.co.uk in future."
M.M, Manchester, 28-Jan-2011

Midnight Strangers by Hester Coetzee
"I am very pleased with the art I received, it was dispatched promptly and in perfect condition. I would be happy to buy art under £100 in this way in future but something more expensive I would like to view the work before I buy. The website itself was good but a way in which it could be improved would be to have a better search facility. For example allowing users of the site to search for original art with all the other attributes price range, style, etc."
C.A, Glasgow, 27-Jan-2011
Bognor Bather by Ken Hayes
"Purchased as a gift and was very well received!

"Excellent. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Fairly confident about buying art over the internet - more confident now that I have received two pieces and they fulfiled expectation. Excellent service."

Heading Home by Ricky Figg
"We love the painting, it was exactly as we expected it to look, delivery was prompt but the box was left outside and it rained, fortunately it was well protected inside the box and not damaged. we found the site very useful, portrayal of the painting accurate and would not hesitate to buy over the internet again."
S.E, Essex, 25-Jan-2011
3 of Coins & Still Life with Blue Flowers and Cup and Saucer by Caoline Kaye
"Very happy with it, it's even better "in the flesh". Absolutely; no problems at all. This is my first time buying art over the internet and it has been a great experience. I wouldn't consider buying something like this unless I felt confident that I was being sold what I saw; the different viewpoints and images of the pictures were great and gave me that confidence to buy. Website is clear, user friendly and you have a wide selection of art on there which is great. I would definitely buy something from you guys if I saw something I liked again. Also, minor point but including P&P is a great idea; I have *not* bought things off websites before after being given the total price which is substantially more than you expected to pay. Also, I think things are really reasonably priced and I have recommended the site to
friends."
C.T, London, 25-Jan-2011
Freedom by Areeb Anwar
"Delighted with the artwork. Delivered on time and in perfect condition. This was my first experience of buying online and I would do so again. Couldn't have been bettered."

Sunset 1 by Finbar Stevens
"I really love the artwork- it looks even better than it did on the website and has got a few positive comments from friends and family who have seen it on my wall! Very reasonably priced too and I have recommended the artist to others. Artwork was delivered very quickly, despite the Christmas post, and in perfect condition- it was very well protected in bubble wrap. I wasn't sure about buying artwork over the internet but it was a very smooth procedure and much quicker and cheaper than going to a real gallery. Not much to say to improve your website- it is very easy to navigate and lots of good artwork on offer. Keep up the good work."
I.F, Surrey , 21-Jan-2011

New Rose by Cheney Anne Markun
"In answer to your questions, I absolutely love the artwork and it now has pride of place in my bedroom. The artist is clearly very talented and if I had more space in my house I would buy more of her paintings to decorate it! The painting was delivered in perfect condition and on time. I found your site through a recommendation and have already recommended it to friends and family, and I have no qualms about buying over the Internet.
Thank you again!"

"We like the picture very much. There was some delay in delivery however this was understandable given the severe weather at the time and the picture arrived in perfect conditon.
Overall we were extremely happy with the service and correspondence relating to the delay.Thank you."

Old Firestation Ink Drawing by Milena Blaziak, My Destiny by Tracy Jolly and Poppy Heads by Terry Wylde
"Great! we love it! Yes, all fine except practically all of the art we have bought (we have bought about 5 pieces recently) smelt of smoke which is not particularly pleasant!! ( one also arrived without a certificate of authenticity, but i phoned up and one arrived in the post a few days later). Great - we love it, finally found an excellent choice, within our price range and wonderful variety - thank you!!"
T.B, Surrey, 16-Jan-2011
Ealees Bridge Rochdale Canal by Colin Leach
"I bought the artwork as a present and both myself and the recepiant are very
happy with it and it is now being displayed on the wall. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition despite the problems
with the snow and Royal Mail so I would like to thank the artist for all his efforts. Thank you very much to both the website and the artist. I was particularly pleased with the lovely letter the artist enclosed wishing me a happy christmas and new year and I would also like to wish you all a happy new year too. I would definately use your site again."
P.G, Kent, 16-Jan-2011
Illumination by Rachel McCullock
"Excellent, it looks lovely in our house. Yes it
was delivered very quickly and in time for Christmas! It was in perfect condition. It is nice to see the painting before you buy it. However the website is easy to navigate and the descriptions and artist profiles are very useful. We heard about artgallery.co.uk at the BuyArt fair in Manchester a few months ago."
S.R, London, 13-Jan-2011
Blue Flowers On a Pink Table by Caroline Kaye
"We think that the art is fantastic. It looks exactly as we imagined from the pictures we had seen on the internet. Yes - very promptly and in perfect condition. Very comfortable."
A.W, Devon , 11-Jan-2011
Good Relationship by Adenivi Adevi
"Very pleased with the painting. Looked just like the on-line image. Delivered promptly in good condition and and most importantly in time for
Christmas. Would probably not do so for pictures costing more than a couple of
hundred pounds because would prefer to see it in person. The website was excellent and the transaction went smoothly."
A.R, London, 11-Jan-2011
Just Us by Ricky Figg
"The art is very good and fantastic. The colour combination is amazing. Yes, the artwork was delivered in time and in perfect condition. I would probably buy again over the internet. Everything is fine with you excepting the calling number, which costed me few quids. I found it very interesting and loads of arts to choose from."

P.S, London, 10-Jan-2011
Killer Heels 3 by Darren Slater
"GREAT FOR WHERE I WANTED IT AND AM VERY HAPPY WITH IT AS A PIECE OF ART. IT OPENS UP A LOT OF CHOICE, MAKES LOOKING FOR AND PURCHASING ART A LOT EASIER AND, OF COURSE, I AM NOT PAYING THE SAME MARGIN CHARGED BY A GALLERY. I AM THEREFORE LIKELY TO BUY MORE ART THIS WAY. I LIKE THE BACKGROUND PROVIDED ON THE ARTISTS AND APPRECIATE THE RATINGS SYSTEM BUT ALSO THE PROTECTION OFFERED BY YOURSELVES AS THE INTERMEDIARY BETWEEN THE ARTIST AND THE CLIENT. SERVICE HAS BEEN VERY GOOD. MAYBE ARTISTS COULD BE ENCOURAGED TO HAVE SEASONAL "SALES"?"
N.B, West Yorkshire , 10-Jan-2011
The Long Winter by Tracey Unwin
"I love the painting I bought - it lifts my spirits every day. Everyone comments on how stunning it is - I wouldn't be surprised if Tracey Unwin zooms up the bestseller list as so many people have now admired her work! It was delivered super-fast and in perfect condition. I would definitely recommend this website for good quality, original art that you won't find anywhere else."
R.C, Herts, 9-Jan-2011
A Roam in Rome by Deborah Norville
"We love it and we had lots of visitors over Christmas and everyone has commented on it. Delivery Service was first class and was in perfect condition. We have now purchased a couple of pieces over the internet and will
continue to do so as we have been very pleased with all our purchases. Sometimes it's unclear whether the art is ready to hang and we have had to make some telephone calls or send e-mails. The site is very clear and easy to use and filters are excellent, we would recommend your site."
K.D, Inverclyde , 8-Jan-2011
The Emerald Bather by Joanna Beal
"The art is very nice and looks even better in reality than on the website. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I was particularly impressed with how well the item had been packaged for protection since I was a little concerned that the courier may not take sufficient care to avoid damage. There wasa small mix up with the item tracking number which caused confusion as to when the item had been delivered but we were kept advised of the resolution of this problem. I accept that mistakes happen and was very impressed at the help received to clear the
confusion. This is the first time I have bought art over the internet and have definitely not been put off. In fact I have already re-visited the site on several occasions and fully intend on purchasing additional work via the art galley website. I was a little concerned that the images on the website may not reflect the true artwork and wondered if perhaps the images may have been modified to improve the appearance of the work. But that was definitely
not the case. The art looks even better in reality. No improvements that I can think of. I found the website to be very accesible and easy to use. No problems at all."
H.G, Telford, 8-Jan-2011

"I really like it (although not sure about the frame). Very good service - thanks. Would have been good to have a bit longer on the guarantee period."
T.B, Berkshire , 6-Jan-2011
Summer Sunset by Terry Wylde & The Lighthouse by Bernard Roberts
"I am very pleased with the art I bought from you. It arrived promptly and extremely well packaged to avoid damage. I found the process of ordering online very pleasant, I like the way the website lets you get an idea of how
the artwork will look on the wall. It would be easier if the search could narrow subjects down a bit more but all in all it was quite easy to scroll
through the images to find what I was after. I was unsure of where I might find art online so I entered 'buy art' into google and your site was on the first page and provided a large choice."
D.T, Leeds, 6-Jan-2011
Sultry by Steven Coughlin
"I absolutely love the art I bought, its tremendous. It arrived well packaged and in good condition, delivery was late but that was because of the weather. The only downside to my purchase was the wood that was used to stretch the canvas. It is cheap soft pine and was warped when it arrived. I will have to get it redone using good quality hardwood. I dont mind as the artwork itself is worth it.
This was the second time I have bought art over the internet and I would recommend it to anyone, but only use reputable sites or artists.
The ArtGallery website is very easy to use. Even if you don't really know what your looking for you are guaranteed to find something that will catch your eye. Worked for me. I was extremely happy with the service I received, I just couldn't fault it."
B.C, Lossiemouth, 6-Jan-2011
Autumn Moon by Elizabeth O'Neill

S.B, West Yorkshire , 6-Jan-2011
The Ark by Claire Keay
"We absolutely ADORE it. The courier company was hopeless, it was despatched on time and arrived in perfect condition. I feel anxious about buying art over the internet because of hoping it'll be as good in the flesh as it is on the screen. Funnily I didn't have any doubts about this piece but I do feel deterred on some pieces.
Because there are SO many paintings on your website, which is great, it would be very helpful if you had a facility that said "if you like this painting, you might also like this one", or, "considering your past purchases, you might like the following paintings..."
K.B, Gloucestershire, 4-Jan-2011
"Star Whores Red" by Juan Sly
Was very impressed actualy considering buying other works by the same artist in the future.
Yes it was delivered on time in a manner I would expect. Im fair comfortable about buying art on line however I would like more photos of the art before I buy it. Have noticed items that have been sold, this item included coming back up again, was under the false impression before I bought this that it was one off oringal artworks only.
Mr A.B, Midlothian, 3-Jan-2011
Calder Hebble Canal by Colin Leach
"We bought the art for a Christmas present. They were delighted with the picture so I think we chose well. The artwork was delivered in good time and in good condition - something unusual was that there was a picture on
the reverse of the canvas too. Also because it had been rolled we had to place it behind glass to hold it firm. We had intended to not have it
behind glass to get the most of the texture. To be honest it did feel a bit of a risk to buy over the internet but we are pleased with our purchase and will keep your site on favourites to check on occasion."
C.P, Lancashire , 1-Jan-2011
Mad March Moon by Luke Strachan
"The mad march moon arrived in perfect condition and im very pleased with it..it did take much longer to arrive than my previous purchase but thats understandable due to the recent weather causing delays,it wasnt a
problem for me. I found your gallery using bing and enjoy buying over the internet. Your site and service is of the best of its kind and id reccommend it to others."
D.M, Midlothian, 31-Dec-2010
Shade of Pink by Hester Coetzee
"Really like it, fantastic value for money. No problems with delivery at all. Wouldn't use the internet for buying anything over about £100, but really good for the cheaper stuff. It's all very impressive."
C.H, Herts, 31-Dec-2010
Whip by Matt Slade
"The picture was a present. It was in perfect condition; delivered in a sturdy tube, and looked as on the website. High quality finish. I would
recommend Matt Slade's work to others. It's not my style of print, but the person I choose it for was very happy with the picture (needless to say it was a man !) The colours on the print are great - really vivid. Overall -great piece of work. The work came after the 5 day period, but that's ok as it was nearly Christmas."
J.R, Manchester, 30-Dec-2010
On Top of the World by Alison Harrop
"It arrived promptly and was very much appreciated by our daughter in law who wanted them to put in her new house--you kindly sorted out my having paid too many times also--all round excellent service-well done."
P.G, Devon , 28-Dec-2010
Where Is That Apple by Terry Wylde and Cow Family by Janice Jung
"Very happy with both pieces. They are better than I expected. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. This was my first purchase - I think it's fine for smaller pieces, but I don't think I would make a large purchase without seeing it first. Having said that, I am not a big art purchaser."
S.C, Devon , 28-Dec-2010
Rainbow Garden by Claire Barone
"A simply stunning image, free, inspiring and perfectly presented. Arrived very quickly. Very impressed. Even accompanied by a Christmas card by the artist. I think your website provides an excellent opportunity to browse at your
leisure, review pieces, see how they may look in the actual room and then purchase. Simple, enjoyable and I will be using it again. I don't think so - the whole experience was great. It felt a little like physically visting the artists gallery.
Stumbled across it by accident whilst using google to find something else. Best blunder I have ever made. The site is now tucked away as one of my bookmarks!"
N.M, South Yorkshire , 28-Dec-2010
Cat C by Marilene Salles
"The artwork I bought was beautiful. The artwork was delivered in excellent time and in perfect condition. We found out about the ArtGallery.co.uk from the exhibition at Malvern Theatre."
R.J, Worcester, 27-Dec-2010
Cat E by Marilene Salles
"I bought 'Cat E' as a Christmas present for my sister who unfortunately, didn't think it was quite her style! However, I love it and am keeping it. And my sister will be ordering another piece of artworkfrom you!! Happy endings all round. The artwork was delivered promptly and in perfect condition."
A.M, Norfolk , 27-Dec-2010
Loch Creran 911 by Paul Chambers
"As with all the art I've bought through your gallery, I am absolutely delighted and congratulate the artist for the skill and perfection used in creating this fantastic painting.
Please pass on my congratulations to the artist and relay my heartfelt thanks for a lovely piece of artwork I can hang on my wall and admire."
P.O, Nottingham, 25-Dec-2010
Fenland Winter by Dawn Rossiter
"The artwork was exactly as ordered, we are very pleased - I like using the website it clearly presents each item and the 'watchlist' is useful as a way of making a small collection to then use for further comparison.
All items received have been well packed and arrived on time.
A suggestion for the website - since both my wife and I independently used the watchlist as a way of creating a 'selection' gallery - it would be nice to have the option of 'merging' two watchlists, or at least being able to see two together - but using your website was a joy - and I design websites !!! - not least because, of course, the wonderful selection and quality of
the items on offer.
Thanks."
Mr S.R., Teddington, Middlesex, 24-Dec-2010
The Last Rays by Terry Wylde
"Many thanks. Made up with purchase. Sits proudly in the lounge. Artwork was delayed due to the snow. That's not attributable to art gallery or artist. Was well wrapped. Slight dent on canvas at bottom left hand corner."
R.T, Newcastle Upon Tyne, 23-Dec-2010
The Last Rays by Terry Wylde
"Many thanks. Made up with purchase. Sits proudly in the lounge. Artwork was delayed due to the snow. That's not attributable to art gallery or artist. Was well wrapped. Slight dent on canvas at bottom left hand corner.
I am positive about buying art to a certain value. Anything over 100 pounds I would have reservations. A royal mail tracker would help with knowing where the art is on route.
Art gallery came up on google first. Very user friendly."
Mr R.T., Newcastle Upon Tyne, 23-Dec-2010
Scottish Castle by Kerri Nathwani
"The artwork itself is everything I hoped it would be,very talented young lady. The packaging could have been much better,it was more by luck that the picture was ok. no cover board on front etc. delivered on time. more choice
on site would be good. I would use you again."
M.H, Leicestershire, 18-Dec-2010
Medusa by Chiara Maclellan
"Pretty good thanks. Yes, the artwork took a wee while but in arrived in good condition. Buying art over the internet is better than trudging through the snow!"

"We are delighted with the artwork and it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I am happy so far buying art over the Internet and I can't think of any aspects of your service you could improve. Thank you."
Mr I.L., Levenshulme, Greater Manchester, 16-Dec-2010
Rain Man by Deborah Norville
"The art is excellent. It was great to find a card in the package from the artist wishing us well with our art piece. The package was outstandingly wrapped and protected. Very happy buying art over the internet if your service is representative of the trade."
Mr D.D., Ely, Cambs, 15-Dec-2010
Various Purchases
"Hi there - many thanks for all of the deliveries which I received in perfect
state. I am very pleased with my purchases and have recommended the site to
others. The only thing I might comment about is the amount of packaging used on one of the deliveries - a large mounted photo - it just seemed a bit excessive but I suppose its better it turned up in good shape!
Many thanks again"
Mr A.G., Brussels, 14-Dec-2010
Grand Canal Venice by Michael Anthony
"Everything was great :)
Thanks so much."
Mr S.K., British Columbia, 14-Dec-2010
" I was absolutely delighted
with the painting. Beautiful colours, lovely brushwork - truly stunning. It was delivered on time and very well packaged and in perfect condition. Buying art over the Internet is a convenient way of buying art and allows you to view a huge variety of paintings. The return policy means that if a painting fails to live up to expectations there is option of sending it back. A very good site - I particularly appreciate the ability to search on different
types of art, as well as by specific artists."
Mr P.D., Tring, Hertfordshire, 13-Dec-2010
Tuscany Farmhouse by Maureen Greenwood
"I thought the art was very good and am enjoying it every day. It's so bright and colourful. "A happy one" as the artist described it to me on the envelope containing the authentication. The artwork was delivered in good time and well wrapped up to protect it. It was in excellent condition. I never really thought about buying original art before but when I saw your website I decided to give it a go. I would do it again if I decide I want another artwork.
I think all aspects of your service are fine."
Ms L.S., Huddersfield, Yorkshire, 13-Dec-2010
Cow and Calf Sunset by Martin Pollard
"I was very happy with the art work and the service. I found your site by searching on Google. It was very easy to navigate and a great range of art work and prices. I have put it as one of my favourites as I hope to use it again in the future.
Many thanks.
God bless"
Ms S.K., Leeds, West Yorkshire, 13-Dec-2010
Strawberry Fields & Tiger Lily by Penny Atkins
"Hi, Both paintings, Strawberry Fields and Spider Lily, arrived in perfect condition
and extremely efficiently. They were very well packed. They are both hanging in my new apartment and look fantastic, so much so that
I've ordered yet anouther painting from the same artist Penny Atkins. I enjoy her colourful, free flowing style.
This is the first time that I've bought art on the internet and I think its a great way to view and buy a vast selection of art. Your website is the best I've found for ease of use, and the catagory filters work well. I found your website
by googling "original art".
Thank you for your service."
Ms L.W., Carshalton, Surrey, 10-Dec-2010
Various purchases Firstly, let me please compliment you on a superb website that showcases some excellent original art from some great artists. I found you through a Google search and have bought a total of 14 pieces in the month I have found the site. i have actually managed to register with two separate web addresses in my enthusiasm. I travel a great deal and moved into a new home in August. Despite making promises to myself that I would take time to visit some galleries to find some pieces to add soul to the home, I have found it impossible to do so. I actually ended up finding your site at 2am one morning and lay in bed browsing and ordering. the site is very well laid out and the search very useful, I found the search by size to be particularly so, as I was shopping for pieces to fill specific spaces in my home. I was largely unconcerned with ordering over the internet, as the pieces were very reasonably priced and I knew I would enjoy at least that amount of value from having them around me. I received rapid notifications of shipping for each of the pieces and every piece was well packed and arrived in pristine condition. In fact the packaging was so comprehensive, I have now started my own business on the Isle of Man selling nearly new packaging material. I received a certificate of authenticity with each original piece I purchased and even received a lovely hand written note from a couple of the artists, especially touching was the note from Jean Tatton Jones. That was extra special, as it created more of a bond with the piece, not as strong as having met the artist, but none the less, very welcome. I cannot honestly think of anything you can do to improve your service, it was everything I would want. I have recommended you to a number of friends, in fact have become something of a bore about my experience of buying art from you. Despite this, I do know that at least one of my friends have bought some art from yourselves. I managed to lay out the pieces I bought before I headed to Asia for a business trip and was able to find one piece to fill a remaining spot whilst in Singapore. I am very much looking forward to receiving it when I return home at the weekend, weather permitting. I think that the next step for me will be to look at commissioning a few pieces from one or two of the artists I have already bought from. I would be very grateful to understand how best to progress this. If you would prefer for me to be more specific about each artist, I would be more than happy to do so.
Mr. A.S., Isle of Man, 8-Dec-2010
Wood by Alice Jenkins
"Hello, I am delighted with Wood and have dropped a line to the artist to let her know how pleased I am. The piece was delivered on time and very well packed with a personal note. I can't fault your site and frequently surf for fun. I would like to see more pottery and sculpture."
Ms C.H., Ramsgate, Kent, 8-Dec-2010
Meadow Lake by Claire Barone
"Fabulous! Faultless and bang on time. Considerably heartened, as this piece looks so much better 'in the flesh'. Know next to nothing about art, but it does seem that the Internet is not particularly good at conveying texture. Therefore, more subtle pieces than the one we bought might not be very 'webegenic''."
S.G, Cambridgeshire , 7-Dec-2010
Beach Brolly by Terry Wylde
" I love it - it's a present for my Dad and I know he'll love it too. It's beautiful.I've ordered a few times from this artist and, as always, it arrived very well packaged and in perfect condition with another painting as a free gift in to boot! I couldn't be happier. I think it's an excellent idea. I love the website and have ecommended it to several friends. I think everything works perfectly. It was recommended to me by my sister who is an art student."
S.S, Wiltshire , 6-Dec-2010
New Hope by Hester Coetzee
"We are very pleased with New Hope by Hester Coetzee. We have bought two other works by her in the past and like her style very much. As before the artwork was delivered promptly and was in good condition. Personally I have found buying art over the internet quite satisfactory,
although of course you don't really know how you will feel about a particular piece until it is up on the wall. If I were spending a large amount of money I would like to see the artwork 'in the flesh' so to speak. I think your website is well structured. The only suggestion I would make is
that you show the true aspect ratio of the picture in the thumbnail so that one can immediately see its true shape (rather than just a square)."
T.O, Hampshire , 6-Dec-2010
Barby Doll Stockings by Steven Lynch
"I am very happy with the art work I received, which did indeed arrive on time. It is not ideal having it delivered by post yet that is the way it has to be and it's the chance you take. I was introduced to the website through family."
P.M, Manchester, 6-Dec-2010
Christmas in Manhattan by Lesley Blackburn
"Very pleased with it. It was delivered quickly and well protected with lots of packaging. I like it. It's great to see the art in person but ultimately that limits your choice so as long as there is a way of returning the art if it isn't as described then I think the internet is a great way of selling it. It looks like the artists take pictures of their own art and upload
it to the site. So the art photos aren't great, ours for example looks a lot brighter than it did on the website which is a good thing but we
almost didn't buy it because we thought is was quite dark. If the artists do take picture of their own art they should be given some basic
instructions in order to get a consistent, high quality of picture. I like the website because it is primarily functional. Other sites which are
in competition with you have tried to make their site as arty ironically that just gets in the way of choosing and buying art. So as long as you
make sure it's remains easy to use I think you will always attract more customers."
P.M, London, 5-Dec-2010
Westonbirt Arboretum by Catherine J Pier
"Every thing was just perfect, great condition, on time, great buy and very happy with my picture, many thanks."
V.F, Swindon , 4-Dec-2010
If House Could Talk by Jean Tatton Jones
"Brilliant piece of art delivered in perfect condition exactly when we were told it would be. Buying art over the internet through your site was very easy. So much choice of different media, types, subject etc. We spent several days looking at the different artists and their work before deciding on this one. Many, many thanks to you and the artists involved. It's the second piece we have bought from you, and it won't be the last."
A.S, High Wycombe , 4-Dec-2010
Firstly, let me please compliment you on a superb website that showcases some excellent original art from some great artists. I found you through a Google search and have bought a total of 14 pieces in the month I have found the site. i have actually managed to register with two separate web addresses in my enthusiasm.
I travel a great deal and moved into a new home in August. Despite making promises to myself that I would take time to visit some galleries to find some pieces to add soul to the home, I have found it impossible to do so. I actually ended up finding your site at 2am one morning and lay in bed browsing and ordering. the site is very well laid out and the search very useful, I found the search by size to be particularly so, as I was shopping for pieces to fill specific spaces in my home. I was largely unconcerned with ordering over the internet, as the pieces were very reasonably priced and I knew I would enjoy at least that amount of value from having them around me.
I received rapid notifications of shipping for each of the pieces and every piece was well packed and arrived in pristine condition. In fact the packaging was so comprehensive, I have now started my own business on the Isle of Man selling nearly new packaging material.
I received a certificate of authenticity with each original piece I purchased and even received a lovely hand written note from a couple of the artists, especially touching was the note from Jean Tatton Jones. That was extra special, as it created more of a bond with the piece, not as strong as having met the artist, but none the less, very welcome.
I cannot honestly think of anything you can do to improve your service, it was everything I would want. I have recommended you to a number of friends, in fact have become something of a bore about my experience of buying art from you. Despite this, I do know that at least one of my friends have bought some art from yourselves.
I managed to lay out the pieces I bought before I headed to Asia for a business trip and was able to find one piece to fill a remaining spot whilst in Singapore. I am very much looking forward to receiving it when I return home at the weekend, weather permitting.
I think that the next step for me will be to look at commissioning a few pieces from one or two of the artists I have already bought from. I would be very grateful to understand how best to progress this.
If you would prefer for me to be more specific about each artist, I would be more than happy to do so.
Many thanks
Best Regards
Andy Scott
P.S. I have just thought of one feature that would be incredible if you are able to do this. I noticed whilst browsing the site, that some of the artists I bought from had recently had pieces on exhibition in the Isle of Man. If it were possible to subscribe to an email alert for notifications of upcoming exhibitions that are displaying pieces fro your artists, perhaps with the ability to filter by artist and / or location, that would be an amazing added value to your business.

Bluebell Wood by Terry Wylde
"The artwork bought looked better in person than on the website and am very happy as it is a christmas present. The artwork was delivered very quickly and was well wrapped to prevent damage. However I was told I would receive a certificate of authenticity with the piece signed by the artist which I did not receive. I feel buying art over the internet is an excellent way of getting lesser known artists into the public eye."
S.L, Nottinghamshire, 3-Dec-2010
Red Hot by Kevin Oldham
"I just would like to thank you for the delivery of a beautiful artwork in a perfect condition. I am pleased with everything. It looks exactly as it is on the website and as I have it imagined my self.
I am still quite often log in the ArtGallery.co.uk website as I am looking for a big painting for my living room, but have difficulties to choose and decide."
A.G, Surrey, 30-Nov-2010
Splash by Terry Wylde
"The painting is lovely, very good texture, depth, colors really good, both sea and sky really lovely as are the characters. Yes, it was really well packaged. It is easy and the website is a good site. All was fine and the artist was very attentative and prompt with communications."
G.R, Northumberland, 30-Nov-2010
Beach Waves by Terry Wylde
"Really georgous, excellant quality. Really quick delivery, received on time, and in perfect condition. It was a really good experience with your site and the artist I bought from."
G.R, Northumberland, 30-Nov-2010
Big City Lights by Terry Wylde
"One of the best pieces of artwork I have bought and I have approx 30 originals in my collection now. This is for my son who has a modern house and will look stunning in his lounge. The depth and texture is fantastic and the the painting looks good from all angles thanks to the sides of the canvas being painted. This artist is extremely talented and I am proud to own a piece of his art as my son will be too
Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition despite the size it was perfect. I would reccomend this site to anyone and have sent the link to a number of my friends."
G.R, Northumberland, 30-Nov-2010
Wandering by Joanna Beal
"I like it a lot. Delivered on time, but packing was very poor and falling apart. I was worried that the canvas would be damaged before opening it, but luckily it was safe. It was easy buying art over the internet, but I have noticed that other art web packages, make it possible to refund the taxes when being purchased and send abroad of UK. This was not possible on
your web-page. I was tipped by a friend that also bought a painting by Joanna Beal and
found the webpage based on the reference from my friend."
B.E , Norway , 29-Nov-2010
Bamboo by Wendy Sistern
"The artwork was delivered promptly and in good condition, although one of the tiny gold "jewels" is missing and we will try and replace it.Fortunately, where it was fixed to the painting there is no mark, so it doesn't look too odd. The colours of this painting are so vibrant and it brightens up our stair well. This was the 3rd painting that we have bought from yourselves and we have not been disappointed. We have recommended you to friends."
J.W , Kent , 29-Nov-2010
Flow by Wendy Sistern "I really love this piece. The colour of the painting is not in line with the colour on the internet but if anything I prefer the real colour. I especially like the textured finish to this piece. I would love to buy a companion painting to this one if ever one became available."
J.W, Kent, 29-Nov-2010
Canoodleing by Jamie Tanner
"Great - exactly what I thought it would be. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I'm not sure how I feel about buying art over the internet - not sure I would spend more than £200-£300 without seeing it in person!
I like seeing pictures of the art hanging up."
I.S, Oxon , 29-Nov-2010
Flow by Wendy Sistern
I really love this piece. The colour of the painting is not in line with
the colour on the internet but if anything I prefer the real colour. I
especially like the textured finish to this piece. I would love to buy a
companion painting to this one if ever one became available. I would like
it a bit bigger, but in the same sort of colours and with the same textured
finish. Any chance of approaching the artist?
JW, Beckenham, Kent, 29-Nov-2010
I like the painting a lot, it was delivered on time but the packing was very poor and falling apart. I was worried that the canvas would be damaged before opening it, but luckily it was safe.
It was easy to buy but I have noticed that other art web packages, make it possible to refund the taxes when being purchased and send abroad of UK. This was not possible on
your web-page. When I receive the package, I have to pay tax to Norwegian autorities as well and the tax I have to pay is based on price of painting (including UK taxes) and also tax on price for transportation. The result is that I pay double tax, both to UK and to Norway and this increases the cost of the painting dramatically.I recommend that you implement the tax
reduction system, the same way as many of the other art webpages does.
The service and information issued is good.

Please Leave Your Shoes At the Door by Daniel Worth
"Okay...The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition unfortunately writing on back had bled through but service was good. Packing of the art comes in many forms - would be good to try to standardise in
some way."
I.S, Oxon , 28-Nov-2010
A Happy Home by Terry Wylde
"We bought three items all from the same artist. We are extremely pleased with all items and they have certainly added to our collection and our home. Delivery was excellent with all items safe and securely packed. We would definately buy art from your excellent site again and have no concerns about buying art over the internet. It is important that potential items can be viewed clearly and have a full description. Your site certainly provides this."
M.H , Lancashire , 27-Nov-2010
Yorkshire Moors by Alice P Jenkins
"Pretty dreadful, to be honest. But didn't expect much for the price, it was more a 'test' purchase. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. If a piece of art was a lot of money, I wouldn't buy it before seeing it "in the flesh". The artwork was delivered quickly. The website is interesting to browse."
V.O, Huddersfield , 25-Nov-2010
Summer Moon by Julia Everett
"Lovely painting, very pleased with it. Delivered in good time and in perfect condition. I like buying artwork online but sometimes the colours aren't the same in real-life as on the screen, I have noticed this with both paintings I have bought with you."
G.D, London, 24-Nov-2010
Various works by Stella Dunkley
"The pictures arrived today and they are fantastic.
Thank you so much for the quick delivery and i'm really looking forward to hanging them all now.

Angel Heart by Deborah Norville
"I have just received "Angel Heart" by Deborah Norville and I must say how thrilled I am with it, such prompt delivery yet again and packaged brilliantly. I also really loved "An Angel's Dream" and "Journey Home" by Deborah also, they are so evocative, full of meaning and I know I will get many hours of pleasure from them. It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with such a professional artist. The last few years have been very difficult for me personally and health wise, and it's been difficult to find pleasure in things, but art has really done that. It's wonderful to have access to great priced, accessible and gorgeous art, thanks to your website."
M.F., Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, 20-Oct-2010
Poppies & Daisies, Shy Hare & Baby Bull by Seonaid Parenell
"I am thrilled with the paintings, they make me smile every time I look at them. They arrived in perfect condition, well packaged and promptly.
I was sent an additional *thank you *mini picture/bookmark, which was a lovely touch.
I have no negatvie comments to make, I am very impressed with the artist and "art gallery"."
J.H , Newport, 13-Oct-2010
Walk in the Woods by Ricky Figg
"Wonderful picture, reminds me of lovely long walks that I have taken. The picture arrived promptly, well packaged and in perfect condition.
I'm very happy with "art gallery" and have no negative comments."

Flowers on Blue and Red by Terry Wylde
"I think the art that I bought Flowers on Blue and Red is excellent and I'm very pleased with it.
The work was delivered quickly, I'm told and it was in perfect condition. I have bought quite a lot of art over the internet and am happy with buying it that way. Reference your service I found it very good, an easy to use and informative site. You kept me well informed and the delivery and packaging service were excellent."
P.M, Hereford, 8-Oct-2010
Garn Fawr by Ken Hayes
"I found all correspondence valuable, polite and given quickly. I made a mistake on the cheque and was quickly informed how to change the error and the painting was then immediately dispatched. The picture was as I expected, delivery in the tube and I had to sign for it. I have looked through many other artists on your website. I felt comfortable buying the picture online and would recommend the service to other friends."
R.P, Cardiff, 7-Oct-2010
Earth Jewels by Claire Barone
"I absolutely love the artwork, the only complaint I could make is that it smelled of cigarette smoke. It was delivered on time, very well packaged and in perfect condition. This was the first time I bought art over the internet as I was was concerned that the pictures on the website might misrepresent the art, or that it may become damaged in the post. In fact I have found that the pictures are very good indeed, the painting is as vibrant and colourful as the website photos and it was so well packaged that it arrived in perfect condition. I 'risked' using the internet because I just loved this particular painting, I also checked that I had the opportunity to return the art if I wasn't happy with it. I think that I would buy art on the internet again but my first choice would still be to see the actual item in a gallery first.
Not that I can think of, I was totally happy with your service, the transaction went smoothly and your website was easy to navigate."
A.T, Liverpool, 7-Oct-2010
Flamenco Art: The Dancer by Tracey Unwin
"A very nice piece indeed - beautiful colours and technique which combine strength and delicacy in a very alluring way - it's going to go nicely with a David Nash piece in similar colours. Was delivered on time but very slightly damaged (crease in one corner) - not too concerned though as the mounting/framing will hide it. Buying over the internet is fine, but I prefer to see things "in the flesh" before committing to buy, if that's possible."
M.M, Manchester, 6-Oct-2010
The Web of Love by Maureen Greenwood
"Very happy with it. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Buying art over the internet is different, the range available beats galleries, but it is difficult to truly 'see' what you are buying from a screen. The search functionality was excellent."
T.C, Surrey, 5-Oct-2010
Sunflowers by Hester Coetzee
"The art I bought is very nice and bright. Yes, it was delivered on time and in perfect condition."
M.M, Renfrewshire, 5-Oct-2010
Daydream by Jacqueline Westland, Cherry by Terry Wylde, Mother with a Child by Nikolai Naimushin and Rose by Rianna Lane
"Very happy with all the pieces purchased. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. First time purchases so was slightly nervous but was well pleased with quality and service received from all artists."
K.H, S. Lanarkshire, 4-Oct-2010
Twilight by Ricky Figg
"Its great goes really well in our lounge and is far better than a factory printed image and not much more expensive. Yes the packaging was adequate, and arrived when it said it would. Yes first time, and no problems I have since brought another piece and contemplating another."
G.B, Essex, 30-Sep-2010
Dance by Terry Wylde
"Very nice. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition."
M.M, Renfrewshire, 29-Sep-2010
Princess by Bridget Davies

S.R, Northamptonshire , 29-Sep-2010
Tiffany Lilies by Deborah Norville
"I really like the artwork, Tiffany Lilies, it is a wonderful and colourful painting. It was thoughtful of Deborah to enclose a handwritten
card with the art. The artwork was delivered very promptly and wrapped brilliantly. I am so much happier buying art over the internet, as this is about my 4th painting in a couple of months. I think the service from you is brilliant and can't think of any improvements needed."
M.F, Norfolk , 28-Sep-2010
Just Us by Karen Smith
" I love it, it's even better than it looked on the website! Yes it was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Was a bit nervous about buying art over the internet but would do it again."
H.A, Surrey, 28-Sep-2010
Whirlwind by Hugh Kerr
"We are very pleased with the picture; it is our wedding present so it was very important for us to make the right choice, and obviously difficult when you have not seen what you are actually buying. It was delivered within the time stated and packaging was good. I was very wary about this as I feel it is something you actually
need to see first, however the internet gives you so much more choice than visting a few galleries. I was totallyl satsfied with the service and would buy from you again."
L.G, West Midlands, 27-Sep-2010
Serenade by Salles Marilene
"We love the art we bought as it represents what we were looking for. It is quite personal to us. The art was delivered on time and in perfect condition. It was our first time bying art on the internet and we were quite anxious about it. But we had a very positive first experience and we will do it again. We are happy with your service and we can't think of any way you could
improve."
B.A, Swindon , 27-Sep-2010
Daisy by Terry Wylde & Country Garden by Hester Coetzee
"Absolutely loved the art. It has totally transformed the room. It was delivered on time as promised, and in perfect condition. I was unsure, but would definitely buy art over the Internet again. I can't think of any improvements."
P.K, Bury , 27-Sep-2010
Bt Challenge by Jean Tatton Jones & Night Lights by Hester Coetzee
"The picture is absolutely fantastic, and far more striking than I had imagined. Simple, yet elegant, and fits perfectly within my flat. The art was delivered punctually, and in perfect condition. No issues. I have had a very positive experience buying with you over the net. Normally I would want to spend some time with the picture in a gallery setting, getting a feel for the colour and mood of the piece, before committing to buy. And for sure, with pieces over £1000 in value, I would expect to carry on with this. However, for the lower value pieces, I think your online gallery works extremely well. I stumbled upon your website whilst researching a few up and coming artists. Very pleased that I did."
I.M, Southampton , 27-Sep-2010
Sea of Glass by Terry Wylde
" Lovely and just as expected. Yes, the artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I found the site very good and of a high standard."

Roupell Street, Waterloo, London by Andrew Reid
"The artwork was excellent, exactly as I expected. I received the artwork within a couple of days which was excellent. It was sufficiently packaged. Initially i was unsure about buying art over the internet, but, your service has changed my opinion. Website is excellent, intuitive, well laid out, very easy to use."

Orange Tree by Claire Barone: "Really pleased,the colours are vibrant. Pleased how quickly it arrived. Also included a note from the artist which was nice. Bit of an experiment,but so far really pleased (have purchased four paintings from you so far). So far the process is very effective."
TH, East Sussex, 26-Sep-2010
Swing Baby by Phyllis Denton
"Just to say we still love the painting Swing baby by Phyllis Denton. It is a great water colour and I was suprised it was so affordable.
The picture arrived in about 3 days in perfect condition. This is the second picture I have bought on the internet. I do not buy pictures as
an investment, just to hang on the walls. I actually prefer to buy art on the internet, in the past I have bought prints which I loved in the gallery but when I got them home they just did'nt look right in the room. The internet allows you to print a small copy off and see if it looks O.K in the room before you buy. The colours are slightly different but not enough to make a difference and in the case of the pictures I bought they were better."
J.S, Dumfriesshire , 26-Sep-2010
Chocolate Orange by Claire Barone
"I really like the painting, I have liked Claires painting for a while but not seen anything in my price band that really captured me. Shabby Garden was a favourite and I just missed out on that so snapped this up when I saw it. The painting was in perfect condition and arrived promptly. Why not buy over the internet this is the 3rd time I have done so with no
problems each time and I have always been pleased with what I have bought."
R.M, West Yorkshire , 24-Sep-2010
"Sunrise by Mary Schofield"
I have just taken delivery yesterday of "Sunrise" by Mary Schofield and can I say how pleased I am with it, the prompt delivery and excellent packaging. I was also thrilled to receive a personal card from Mary and think this is a lovely gesture.
Ms M.F., Norfolk, 23-Sep-2010
Big Red by Terry Wylde
"Very pleased. Took slightly longer than expected to arrive .. but when did was in good
order."
M.S, Gloucestershire, 23-Sep-2010
Fresh As a Daisy by Wendy Sistern
"Very happy. We bought the item as a gift and the person we bought if for was very happy as were we. The certificate of authentication added to it and made it feel more special. Whilst searching for the artwork, I found your website easy to use and the 'see it in a room' section was invaluable. The artwork all seemed to be good value too. Yes. The item was sent to a different address and there were absolutely no
problems with this. The package was well wrapped and the painting was in
perfect condition. I also got an email saying that the package had been dispatched which was great. As I mentioned, this was for a friend. However, I will certainly be buying
a piece for my home and I will definitely use your site. I am very happy and would recommend you to all of my friends and family."
T.C, Harrogate, 22-Sep-2010
Evolution by Rumen Dragiev
"We think the picture is great. It arrived on time and in perfect condition. We've bought several pictures online and consider it an ideal medium. The service we received was faultless."
R.F, Nottingham, 21-Sep-2010
A Male Bengal Tiger by Rezaul Barry
"The work was great as I expected. It was a little late as I had bought this for a gift. It was slightly damaged, one corner was bent even though it arrived in an envelope with hard
backing. I was very disappointed that there was no mention of it being a limited edition and I had to copy the details off the website to give to my
friend. When I have purchased anything else that is limited it has always arrived with a unique number and some sort of certification."
M.B, S. Yorkshire , 21-Sep-2010
Heads N Tails by Tracy Louise McKenna
"The art was excellent. The piece took some eight days to arrive to the UK from france. The tracking number provided although probably correct could not be tracked anywhere as La Poste have no online tracing system, only a submit form option to which I am still awaiting a reply some three weeks later.
The piece although well packaged had received indentations on its surface from the bubble rap used to protect it and the sheen of the paint was
removed by the pressure. This is only slightly visible. Try and inform customers if pieces are arriving from overseas."
G.B, Middlesex, 20-Sep-2010
Evening Sails by Terry Wylde
"Very good, a little darker than it looked online. the artist was incredibly kind and helpful."
F.K, London, 20-Sep-2010

with regard to this transaction everything went very well."
G.B, Middlesex, 19-Sep-2010
Star Whore 1.2 & Yo Yo Hitler by Steven Lynch
"I'm glad I found you website you have such an array of great art now to answer your questions. I think this artist is going far every time I walk into the room where they are displayed they bring a smile to my face even after a hard nights
work. The artwork was delivered in perfect condition but that cannot be said of
the packaging which was damaged because of its flimsyness.It was a cardboard
tube but not a very strong one. Buying art over the internet is a great way for me to get art. I work some strange hours and cannot get out to art galleries and the like. So buying art this way is great for me."
S.H, Suffolk, 18-Sep-2010
Glittery Hen by Natalie Rymer
"I think it is lovely and I'm absolutely delighted with it. I bought it because I keep 3 hens in my small garden and it reminded me of my favourite one, especially with the washing out on the line. I like being able to browse at my leisure and see what other people have bought."
K.A, Bristol, 15-Sep-2010
Bluebell Walk by Ricky Figg
"As always the paintings I bought arrived on time and were of the usual high standard I have come to expect from Ricky Figg.
It is a pleasure to have them hanging on my walls."
P.O, Nottingham, 14-Sep-2010
A Walk At Sunset by Terry Wylde
" I really like the art work, A Walk At Sunset, by Terry Wylds, my secondwork from this artist. I certainly feel much happier buying art over the internet, as I now just taken delivery of my third artwork by a different artist. It's a brilliant
idea and so affordable too."
M.F, Norfolk , 14-Sep-2010
Cat A & Cat B by Salles Marilene
"The art I received was more than expected - very good. The delivery was very good
I was reluctant at first to buy over the internet, but pleased with the outcome. The service in general was very good I would have no hesitation in buying again."
L.C, Isle of Man , 13-Sep-2010

Summer Woods by Terry Wylde
"I was very happy with the art that I purchased from you, I think it was really unusual and with very vivid colours. Yes, the artwork was delivered in time and in perfect condition, the packaging was very thorough, which was encouraging. I initially wasn't convinced about buying artwork over the internet, especially paintings. Now that I have used your company, you could say my feelings on this have now changed!"
M.F, Norfolk , 8-Sep-2010
A Special Brand of Love by Caroll Webb
"Adorable! As a cat lover, I really appreciate the artwork. The artist is a master! It was delivered on time and in a perfect condition.It is an excellent way of buying art."
H.C, Kent , 6-Sep-2010
Stallion by John Wallace
" Fantastic - no fault at all. Yes it was delivered on time and beautifully wrapped. I was slightly worried as you can't rely on exact colour/texture
but as long as I could return it I am more than happy to do so. Its my first choice of shopping (as I hate it)."
S.M, Winchester , 6-Sep-2010
After the Rain by Hester Coetzee

A Walk at Sunset and Summer Woods by Terry Wylde
" Just wanted to say thank you for my first order from you, a Terry wylde artwork, which arrived today. I am very impressed with the whole ordering processing, viewing the artwork online, the way the package was wrapped and sent. I have shopped online for a number of years from various well known companies such as Amazon, but have never bought artwork online. I have to say I was somewhat dubious about buying art this way and have only really started buying stained glass and other artwork locally where I go in a gallery. My only problem now is that I have missed 2 other lovely Terry Wylde pieces that I left in my wishlist for a few days! I have just ordered my second Terry Wylde piece, so I think you could say, I will be a regular customer. What a brilliant idea, thank you all.
Ms MF, Norfolk, 28-Aug-2010

"Thank you for the extremely good service you provided in sending me my order so efficiently! Eactly 5 working days as stated on your website. I am thrilled to bits with the painting as I have bought it as a wedding present for my neice,who is marrying on the 7th August, so I was taking a bit of a risk that the painting would get here in time. The painting is just as it looked on the site and in fact the problem I now have is that I would love to keep it myself! I will definately be shopping for art on the art gallery site again...Thankyou!

ArtGallery website is well laid out and the additional views of each piece helped a lot. If I was spending a lot of money, I think I would want to see the pictures "in the flesh" so to speak."

Foxes By Nicholas Perry
" I am pleased with the print I received, eventually, of the foxes. Delicate pencil strokes by the artist bringing to life the coat of the beautiful red fox, excellent rendition. Foxes are a favourite animal of mine and I have actually fed tame ones in someones garden one evening by hand, I have read the urban foxes are dangerous to approach in the UK and much maligned of late, which is a shame because domesticated dogs are more vicious. I have to say I think this website is a unique resource and is upholding a tradition of fair play to amateurs, semi professional and professionals alike, because artists often improve with age and experience, most start off as amateurs or even self taught, which is not always a bad thing, sometimes trial and error is the best way of learning. A favourite artist of mine, Van Gogh, who a lot try to emulate and study his technique was a perfect example of a self taught artist. I love pencil sketches, I bought a print of elizabeth taylor as cleopatra last year and will be on the lookout for more, excellent Art and service, don't change a thing."
AW, Huddersfield, Yorkshire, 1-Jul-2010
"I am delighted with the artwork which was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel better now about buying art over the internet. I don't think there is anything you could do to improve your service. I look forward to spending the rest of the gift voucher one day soon.
Best wishes"

The Dance by Fatima Assan Hussain
"I was very pleased with the service provided, delivery was fairly speedy and efficient. Loved the painting, it was in great condition and the colours 'popped' better in real life. I think its great to buy art over the net as I'm sure were I to purchase this from a store or gallery it would have been double the price. It'd be great if you could feature more art from different countries also.
AA, Southampton, Hampshire, 30-Jun-2010

"I was very pleased with the service. I think the artwork is of a high quality, and I loved it. It arrived in perfect condition. I appreciate that the artist has wrapped it very well, after I left him a message saying that I'll need to bring it abroad. I feel much more comfortable now buying over the internet from you. Your website is good, I do find that there is a shortage of scenes of London river thames, and hope you'll be able to bring on more artists. My friend recommended the website to me."

View from a walk by Stephen Williams
"I was extremely happy with my purchase, and have recommended my friends
and family to the website. This is the first time I have bought art over the internet and I'm
'converted'. The Art Gallery reduces the snobbery and hard sell associated with art galleries, and allows one to buy art from fledgling artists."
A.K, London, 22-Jun-2010
The Tide Returns by Terry Wylde
"I love the painting which was delivered on time, well packaged and therefore in perfect condition.

Evening Sun by Kevin Franklyn
"Very pleased with picture, will let artist know. Also very pleased with your service your site is great, found it via search on internet.
I was probably unlucky, but despite all your labelling on the box, it had been pierced in the post, fortunately on rear of picture, and hence into recess, but if it had been in front it would have been holed I think, as two layers of card had been pierced. I am not sure of the solution to this...But anyway A1 service on your part."

When I was Young by Arie Coetzee
"I was very happy with the artwork which arrived very quickly & in perfect condition. I was happy buying artwork over the internet. My only feeling was that it was difficult to see some details on the paintings & that a zoom facility
might be useful when viewing the paintings. I think it is a veryy good way of getting the work of little known atrists to the public. I found the website because I was given ArtGallery vouchers as a retirement gift."
T.D, West Sussex , 8-Jun-2010

L.M, Essex, 25-May-2010
Girl with Kitten by Mark Cawood
"I really like it, I fell in love with her eyelashes!
It was, sent really quickly and well packaged to prevent damage. I wasn't sure about buying art over the internet at first but having purchased from you before & knowing I could return it, I love looking at your site now. The only thing I could think of to improve the site is maybe a link to a picture framer, I'm lucky to live near one but not everybody does."

and Lydon was such an icon."

Door to the Infinite by Nora Doherty
"The art work that I bought was great..... much better in the flesh. It arrived professionally packaged and with no issues. I have previously bought art on the web and would say the images are good and having the ability to zoom in
Top marks and will continue to use you guys and buy some more of Nora's work as it is brilliant."
M.R, Berkshire , 18-May-2010
Waterfall by Susan Turtle
"The art work is good. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I was extremely disappointed after receiving wrong size artwork - on your website it was clearly saying Width: 60.00" Height: 20.00" We have received
Width 20" and height 16"."
D.G, London, 17-May-2010
Iris by Paula Oakley
"I was very pleased with the artwork which was exactly as picture on your website. My greatest concern about buying art on the net was ensuring what I saw on the page was what was delivered to my door. I can say without question my concerns have been put to rest and I will certainly be buying more art work."
K.E, Cheshire , 17-May-2010
The Red Herring by Kevin Oldham
"The art I bought was ok - impulse buy, may grow on me - wouldn't stop me buying again. Has been to an art exhibition and decided was going to see if I could find something. The artwork was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I have no problem buying art over the internet - might
limit how much I paid the first time as I would be taking a risk on the quality."
Ms G.T, Surrey , 15-May-2010
Day At the Seaside by Ricky Figg
"The painting arrived in perfect condition, well wrapped etc and was despatched to me very quickly. I am delighted with this painting. The only thing I would say is it's a shame the artist does not paint around all the sides of each canvas - but I knew this before I purchased this painting - this is NOT a complaint in any way! I just feel the work would be even better if the work were to continue around the edges of the canvas. The friends and family that have seen the artwork I have (so far) purchased from your site - have all said the same - how amazing to be able to purchase
art safe in the knowledge the work can be returned if you are not 100% happy
with it. Although I have not had reason to do this, it was a factor that I took into consideration when I found your website. My other observation is that it would be even better if you had a more precise way of telling clients when you anticipate the art to actually arrive. Arranging for someone to be home can be tricky for most people who work, esp so when you live rurally - having to travel miles to pick the
artwork up if the despatch company arrive when you are out is a nightmare!! I was very fortunate, in that friends offered up their address on my behalf! Thank you for a wonderful website - I hope to return as a customer in the not too distant future!! :-)"
Ms W.A, Kent, 15-May-2010
Home by Terry Wylde
"We love 'Home'! We are very happy with this wonderful addition to our own home! Terry was brilliant about creating this work for us, and we appreciate the painting even more for it. As per my previous comments on the feedback form,(for the other work I have recently purchased); I would like to have had a better idea as to when this work was actually going to arrive, to enable me to ensure someone would be
available to accept the parcel, but otherwise very very pleased and have told friends and family about your website now!"
Ms W.A, Kent, 15-May-2010
Odd One Out by Lee McConville
" Very pleased with the artwork. I received it within 2 days and in perfect condition. I feel fine about buying art online but wouldn't spend over £500 without viewing in the flesh."
Mr C.P, Essex, 13-May-2010
Rejoice by Hester Coetzee
"I like it and it was as I expected from the website display. It suits me fine buying art over the internet. But then I buy almost everything over the Internet. I thought the website was well structured, helpful and fit for purpose. I looked at over 8,000 paintings on the site and found it easy to do this. I didn't use or look at the "wish list" function on the site. I set up a short list of 100 pieces (in a spreadsheet) and then asked my partner to have a look at these. Although, the present was not for her I would have preferred that she could have chosen to look at the pieces with the prices not visible, as I did not want price to be a major deciding factor (and I know she can't resist a bargain). So I would suggest a global price show/hide function as a facility for users of the website. We ended up with what we thought was a very inexpensive piece, by the way. From the point of view of budding artists, I think your selling model
is really good (though I have no opinion at all on the percentage split) and I have suggested the website as a possible outlet to two artist friends.
Some of the artists descriptions of their pieces on the website could do with fleshing out, especially elaboration on whether a piece is framed or unframed, or requires framing, or what the alternatives are for final display. Some do fine, whilst others don't. Sizes should be given in both imperial and metric."
Mr J.M, South Lanarckshire , 13-May-2010
Various prints by Karin Akesson
"I am pleased with the prints and I think they represent good value for money. All of the prints were received in good condition. Buying art on the internet is not something I would choose to do. It is difficult judging such aspects as size, scale and texture and most of all
quality and the ability and integrity of the artist. My main issue is that too much of the art is by well meaning amateurs. There needs to be some differentiation of the artists according to their training, status and the regard in which they are held."
Mr P.S, Cambridgeshire , 11-May-2010
After by Elizabeth Thomson
" A delightful painting by Elizabeth Thomson which really 'moved' me. I feel I have purchased a wonderful piece of artwork for a very reasonable price. The painting (being delicate owing to some gold-leaf content) was delivered safely and quickly. My feeling of buying art over the internet varies depending on my 'gut feel' about the site. I have purchased much more expensive pieces that this painting with, so far, no issues, but I accept the need for caution and the need to seek some kind of guarantee against failure to deliver and damage. The real issue with internet purchasing is the ability to see the 'real thing' before purchasing - this is especially true of purchasing art-work. I suspect the only way to try and address this is to offer as many 'accurate' views of the work as possible - by this I mean clear images in the appropriate light.
I would certainly purchase from you again if I found the art I wanted for the right price. I have found an excellent painting, delivered safely and have had delightful dialogue with yourself - what more could I ask for?"
Mr L.J, Cheshire , 11-May-2010
Jump by Joanna Beal
" Very happy with it. The pictures on the website, were very accurate. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I would happily buy from the site again. Mainly my bank balance stopping me. I would suggest having some pages offering of information along the lines of different styles and maybe some art history. I read some introductory books on the subject which was tempted me to actually buy some art.
Also maybe have some advice on how to hang art and the best location to do so. I haven’t got mine up as I’m not sure of the best way to hang the picture."
Mr S.C, Berkshire , 11-May-2010
Ride the River by Jean G Dayton
"The art I bought was very nice. It was a few days delayed, so luckily it wasnt for a deadline, but arrived in good condition. I felt fine about buying art over the Internet, more choice available than in one showroom or exhibition."

Adams Apple by Adrian Wright
"The artwork I bought was excellent. Delivery was both prompt and well packaged and handled. I have no problem buying over the internet. It's the first time I've bought art and the opportunity to buy over the internet actually spurred me on to making my first purchases.
I found the website excellent, easy way to browse art and I like the wish list feature."

artistic talent brings the flowers alive in her artwork. You feel as if you
want to touch them."

Sea Ghosts by Terry Wylde
"Really like the piece we have bought, it is just what we expected from the images on the website. It arrived promptly and in perfect condition. Think the wedsite is fantastic and will be using it again."
Ms R.W, Stockport , 5-May-2010
Monty by Paula Oakley
"The painting is in perfect condition and even better than it appeared on
your web-site. The colours are much more vibrant and the image is really
life-like - in fact, the eyes are magic. I saw Monty in February while searching for a suitable gift for a friend and in the end could not resist the temptation to own him. I look forward to browsing your gallery in future as I still have some wall space left."
Ms S.N , Reading , 4-May-2010
Little Humming Bird Sipping Nectar by Dianne Giblin
"This painting arrived safe and sound on 13th April. It was the second of Dianne Gilbin's paintings - and it now has pride of place in my bedroom. The beauty of the composition is its simplicity. I came across this painting while looking for something for a friend - for
which I chose another hummingbird by Dianne.
I look forward to browsing your gallery in the future - I am sure that I will not be able to resist!"
Ms S.N, Reading , 4-May-2010
Green Spots of Gold by Jean Fitzhugh
" I thought it was good for the money -it was only £59- but not fantastic. It was a joint present for a friend's birthday so it was
chosen by a few of us. Our friend seemed to really like it. Yes- it was delivered very quickly, well wrapped and in perfect condition. This was the first time and I would do it again. I liked the way you could get a close up of each painting and can test drive it in a room. I also liked the choice which wouldn't be available in a High
St. gallery. Also the prices were very competitive. I can't think of anything - I think it was a very good service. A friend found it when Googling for art galleries and recommended I
have a look."
Ms H.S, Fareham, 3-May-2010
Venezia by Leslie Blackburn
"The artwork was a bit brighter than the image suggested, but we like it very much and it was well packaged. I am a little nervous about buying on the internet, but would try it again. I can't see how the website could be improved."
Mr W.M., Southport, Merseyside, 1-May-2010
Welsh Landscape (Snowdonia) by John Wright
"The artwork I received is even better than it appeared on screen, the colours are so vivid and the landscape appears to change in different lights.
It was sent promptly and arrived in perfect condition.
I have used artgallery to buy artwork before and certainly would again. Buying art over the internet gives you the opportunity to view such a wide range of pieces by different artists without feeling any pressure to buy until you find something you really love.
On each occasion I have used your service it has been brilliant, with quick delivery of quality pieces of artwork each time.
The artgallery website is one of the best I have found on the internet. It has such a huge range of types of art with easy to use search topics to assist all buyers."
Ms VJ, Skipton, North Yorkshire, 27-Apr-2010
Sails of White and Yellow by Terry Wylde
"Hello Aileen
Thank you once again for the lovely art work - the second I have bought for my son. It was really nice and very good value. In a way I was hoping that my son wouldn't like it so I could keep it! Once again it was delivered in perfect condition and promptly. I am very happy to buy art online - the accuracy of the pictures is very good, although I think if I was paying a large sum I may think twice.
The only thing I would like to see improved is access to the pictures online. If something could be done to the website to cross reference art work it would save scrolling through endless work which is of no interest. For example if we could see work in a partticular price range linked with a theme or type of painting, then it would give easier access.
I have used the website to buy artwork before and I do visit it from time to time to see new work. I have also visited the Cambridge art fair (and met you I believe). I run an art group and I have recommended your site to its members.
All the best

Sailing on a Mirror Sea by Terry Wylde
"We are delighted with the picture we bought. Never having bought art from the internet before I wondered if I would like it in the flesh so to speak. I was not disappointed. This particular picture is bold & dramatic & has a wow factor which was also visible on screen. I would have no hesitation in buying from you again. The picture arrived on time & in perfect condition. I was very satisfied with the service & see no need for improvement. My family introduced us to artgallery.co.uk by giving us vouchers for a christmas present last year. Brilliant idea for a gift. I hope they do it again!
You do have to have a lot of patience to go through all the different pictures available but I browsed over & over again before making the choice."

Untitled 1 by Soraya Wallace
"Very nice but a different colour from how it looked on the website. Fortunately I didn't mind.
You are taking a risk by not seeing it in real life so I wouldn't spend hundreds of pounds on something. You could improve your service by having a proper answer phone service for when you are not in the office. I thought I had
the wrong number as your answer phone seemed to be a private residence rather than a business."
Ms J.W, Guildford, 21-Apr-2010
Whispy Tree by Helena Cook
" I am delighted with the art I bought. It was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I was unsure about buying art over the Internet but glad I did."
Ms L.A, Basingstoke, 21-Apr-2010
Hope by Mark Edwards
"The painting arrived promptly and very well packaged with no damaged incurred during transit. The artist thoughtfully included some screws for hanging if required plus contact info, etc. Overall I am extremely pleased with the painting. I have it hanging in the spot I had planned for it and it gives me a great deal of enjoyment. I bought the work knowing that it was painted onto rescued plywood and hence not perfect but my only criticism is that it is not square. This gives it a slightly lopsided look when hung as the eye is drawn to the straight lines of the walls and ceiling. This is not a huge draw back, indeed some people have not even noticed, but I cant help feeling that a little more care in preparation would not have gone amiss.
This is the second work that I have purchased over the Internet, both from Artgallery, and I have been very happy with both."
Mr M.P, Weybridge, 21-Apr-2010
Fore by Paul Allen
"The sculpture was pretty much as I expected it to be - nice and quirky. I would like to have kept it for myself but unfortunately it is intended as a gift. Yes, the item was received a day or two earlier than expected and was in good condition. I'm used to buying things over the internet but I was a little bit nervous about buying something original without seeing it in the 'flesh' but the website images were good - showing the item from all angles - and this and the helpful measurements provided in the description made things easier. I'm still not sure how I would feel about buying more expensive original artwork over the internet but the guarantee offers reassurance."
Ms L.G, Huntingdon, 20-Apr-2010
The Comic Book That Never Was by Scott Henderson
"The art I bought was everything and more what I thought it would be, having started at just the one purchase it soon turned into three, humorous and fun. My son enjoys them every bit as much as i do. The service provided was professional and all in a timely manner. Delivery and packaging all being great.
Having bought online for the first time i would definitely purchase again after dealing with Artgallery.co.uk.
All in all a great easy to use website with excellent customer service all round."
Mr G.G, Aberdeen, 20-Apr-2010
Apples by Terry Wylde

The Rainbow Fish by Jean Tatton Jones, An Old Oak Tree by Poonam Sharma and Robin by Margaret Riordan
"The picture was lovely. I am very pleased with it. The artwork was delivered quickly. Extra care had been taken when packaged up, so it arrived in perfect condition. Personal message from artist very welcome. Buying art over the internet was new to me. I think it is a great idea. There were a lot of artists so there was a good choice, something for everyone. I prefer to buy original artwork and I didn't have to traipse around shops only to buy something under pressure that I didn't really like!
- I could take my time and choose what I really wanted. Very satisfied - good website, clear information."
Ms S.B, Kent, 14-Apr-2010
Melbourne Trend by L.L. Bailey
"It's beautiful, better than it looked on the website. The art I bought was delivered on time and in perfect condition. I feel fine about buying art over the internet although, if it were a much higher value price (say, over £1000) I would want to see it in person first. There are no aspects of the service I would improve unless you would consider a framing service offering a choice of framing options? I found artgallery.co.uk through a personal recommendation."
Ms V.K., Surrey, 13-Apr-2010
Darcey Bussell Farewell by Charles Willmott
"I am very pleased with art I have bought from site. Yes it was delivered in perfect condition and well packaged. Buying art over the internet is a valuable option, giving accessibility to work you would otherwise not encounter. I think the service is excellent and like the fact that framing was not included as it gives the option for personal preference. I found the site through google search engine when looking for original artwork."
Ms J.B., Harrogate, 13-Apr-2010

Curves by Carmen Tyrell

Mother Elephant by Terry Wylde
"The picture by Terry Wylde of the Mother Elephant is brilliant. All the people who have seen it, have commented on how good it is. The 3D effect is particularly striking, the elephant appears to be coming out of the painting into the room. It was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. Now I have bought a few works from you, I have no qualms about buying art over the internet from reputable companys. Indeed, I now make most of my purchases this way."
Mr I.P., Trowbridge, Wiltshire, 31-Mar-2010

Garden Blackbird by Kathryn Edwards
"The artwork was purchased as a gift, and the recipient was very pleased. The artwork was delivered very quickly and in perfect condition. Obviously there are advantages to viewing an item in person before a purchase, but buying over the internet means having access to many more works to choose from. I was very pleased with the service I received, and couldn't fault it in any way."
