Apologies for the lack of blogs and updating of stock on this website, but I’ve been extremely busy trying to find a base for Cooper Gallery in the centre of the country. Keeping a base in Bideford but having another in the Midlands will mean that more customers and auction houses can be accessed easier. [...]

Coming to the site soon
I have so much backlog of stock to add to the site, that I thought you might prefer to have a quick sneek preview of it in the snaps below: More items will be added to a post I’ll do tomorrow. That’s it for today from Cooper Gallery.
Reg Lloyd and Ted Hughes
Cooper Gallery is very pleased to be able to offer this unusual item. Reg Lloyd a local artist, and Ted Hughes an acclaimed poet, combined their skills to have prints prepared for an exhibition held many years ago. There are 24 prints available, all with individual subjects of art, and verses – some depict animals (cow, otter, donkey, pig) whilst [...]
Commission a portrait
Eagerly awaited, and now this service is available. You imagine having a portrait commissioned would cost hundreds of pounds, but no, for as little as £95 including mount and frame, you can have your very own moment in time captured by a skilled artist. So much interest is being shown in the self-portrait done [...]
Latest arrivals
As from today, Monday 25th July, I will add new pieces arriving in the gallery on to this blog to save existing visitors to the site having to trawl through each section/description to find which is new since their last visit. Life will be so much easier for you to pop on the site quickly [...]
Portraiture coming soon
I’m pleased to have met a local artist from Woolacombe who is going to provide a unique portraiture service for customers of Cooper Gallery. You will be able to commission this artist at a modest price, and encapture your loved ones – wife, husband, daughter, son, grandchildren, mother or father. Adam is an established [...]
Stained glass of 1860
Due to the interest shown for two recent beautiful pieces of original stained glass with religious content, we have now bought more to add to the range of art and mirrors. The first piece sold from Cooper Gallery went to a local Bideford couple and then they returned a week later for the second [...]
Robert Lenkiewicz to buy
A lovely elderly couple, that have previously bought art from Cooper Gallery, recently came across a pencil sketch done in Plymouth of their pet ‘Pip’ dog years ago – it was found in a draw. The artist was none other than the reputable Robert Lenkiewicz, who has produced paintings worth many £000′s. They have kindly asked [...]
Eventually
Eventually, after numerous phone calls, backward and forward between technical support helplines and the auction house in question, I managed to secure a piece of art today that I really wanted to buy. It is so unusual! Firstly it is a pastel of a flower arrangement, which is far less available than watercolours or oils. [...]

Put your feet up and let Cooper Gallery find what you are looking for. Be it ….. Art, Glass, Ceramics, Mirrors, Antiques or Fine Furniture. We will strive to source it for you.
