I have received my 2 paintings back from Nick Buxton of Creations Gallery, Dickens Heath, Solihull. As you can see from the pictures the one painting has suffered a lot of damage and is unrepairable. There appears to be 2 cuts, but one is made from the front of the canvas and one from the back.The stretcher bar is also snapped right through. As this is a large 3 ft canvas the stretcher bars are very big and strong.
As the packaging was not damaged one can only assume that the damage was done in the gallery which closed down with no notification to me what so ever months ago.
After getting no answers to my emails and phone calls we went over there and found out it had closed down ages ago.
The owner Nick didn't have the decency to tell us , we would have driven over and collected my work had we of known. He didn't even put a note in with the paintings to explain what has happened.
Fortunately the other painting escaped unscathed, and is now back on the market. Evening Tide will brighten up any room its hung in. It measures 36in x36in and is on staple free box canvas. The price is £250 including P+P in Uk If you are outside Uk Please get in touch.

So this is what happened in the end. I still remember all the work you have had preparing for the exhibition.
Yes all that hard work was for nothing really, I did sell 3 paintings there, but the damage to this big one has un-done all that now. Never mind you live and learn!
