Printastic Heather Nevay

We are proud of our connection with Heather Nevay, an artist who divides her time between Tighnabruaich and Glasgow, when she's not jetting off to London and Miami for her own exhibition openings.

A Cloud of Ruddy Hue (570mm X 705mm) £580

Heather's work is highly sought after and in the last decade, she has developed a cult following.

As the writer and filmmaker, James Burge, says of her work: Heather Nevay's paintings shock at first sight. She employs a repertoire of images that appear to have found their way to us from Hieronymus Bosch via classic cinematic horror."

Whenever we have her original work in the gallery, it never hangs around for long – such is the demand for Heather's paintings. 

So, we are delighted to be able to present for the first time ever, a series of limited edition digital prints of Heather's work.

The quality is stunning and we think Heather's many fans will be impressed by these affordable yet beautiful prints.

Each is printed in a limited edition of 25 and is signed and numbered by Heather. It also comes with a certificate of authentication. prices are for the unmounted print but dark stained wood frames, designed and approved by the artist, can also be supplied.

Alchemists in an Industrial Landscape by
Heather Nevay. On sale for £4,800 with
Tighnabruaich Gallery at Glasgow Art Show

The Argyll-based Tighnabruaich Gallery is bringing the work of artist Heather Nevay back to her home city for the new Glasgow Art Show, after her critically acclaimed solo show in Miami, Florida.

Heather, who has a second home in the village of Tighnabruaich, has developed close links with the gallery in the last couple of years.

The artist’s recent hit exhibition, Flesch and Blood, at Miami’s 101/exhibit gallery featured her signature rose-toned Flemish-style pre-teen figures engaged in sinister childhood games. More than half the work was reserved by the time the exhibition opened last month.

Heather’s highly collectable work was a regular fixture at the Glasgow Art Fair, which took place annually in the city’s George Square until 2010. 

Her distinctive paintings, collected by fans worldwide, now routinely sell for four-figure sums. 

The Argyll-based gallery is bringing two of Heather’s sought-after original oil paintings to the all-new Glasgow Art Show; one called Alchemists in an Industrial Landscape and the other Belovd.

The Tighnabruaich Gallery is one of 41 galleries selected to exhibit at the brand new Glasgow Art Show, which takes place in the Thistle Hotel, Glasgow from March 23-25.

As well as Heather’s work, the gallery will be bringing the work of sought-after Scots artists such as, Gordon Wilson, Charlie O’Sullivan, Ingeborg Smith, Tommy Fitchet and Kevin Fleming.

They will also be showcasing the unique watercolours of Northumberland-based artist, MJ (Matt) Forster. This will be the first time this self-styled ‘Überpainter’ has been shown in Scotland.

According to Matt, Überpaintings are ‘designed rather than painted’. 

“An Überpainting cannot be created within one painting,’ he adds. ‘They have to be developed. This can take weeks to achieve a satisfactory image.”

Penny Graham-Weall of the Tighnabruaich Gallery comments: “We are delighted to be exhibiting at the first ever Glasgow Art Show. It’s vitally important for galleries like ours to be able to bring our artists to a bigger audience and this offers a great opportunity for all concerned.”
