MAGGI HAMBLING OILS ON BOARD & CANVAS!, by Ruggs on Apr 29, 2011 17:20:41 GMT 1, I'm somewhat fortunate to be able to see plenty of Suffolk based artist Maggi Hambling's work. One of her most famous pieces "The Scallop" resides on the beach between Aldeburgh and Thorpeness. This week was the opening of The Alde Valley Spring Festival 2011. A celebration of food, farming, landscape and the arts. www.aldevalleyspringfestival.co.uk/ She's one of the many artists showing their works. What I like about Maggi's oils is to me it has quite an urban feel. Here's some pictures of her work which is currently on show and available to buy. Quite a lot has already sold. There's also a wonderful array of other local artists work. Not urban art, I know, but some excellent work nonetheless.
Some the "Night Valley" series. Oil on board.
Single picture of the "Night Wave" series. Oil on board. Very few of these left to buy.
The largest piece on show, "March Wave Breaking". Oil on canvas. Absolutely stunning.
"Whirlpool, Northern Japan". Oil on canvas. This is a charity piece. Again pretty stunning.

I'm working on it. The smaller "Night Valley" and "Night Wave" pieces are between ยฃ800 and ยฃ1500. The "Whirlpool, Northern Japan" is ยฃ8.5k and the much larger "March Breaking Wave" is ยฃ35k. One Day!

MAGGI HAMBLING OILS ON BOARD & CANVAS!, by pezlow on May 1, 2011 8:32:56 GMT 1, I think a small Maggi seascape is next on my list of paintings I would like to buy. I'm not so keen on her portraits.
I have an RCA secret card by her and a signed book which I will have to content myself with until such day as I can afford a seascape.

MAGGI HAMBLING OILS ON BOARD & CANVAS!, by Ruggs on May 2, 2011 19:42:09 GMT 1, Thought i'd post a picture of this. It's by artist Kate Giles and titled "And so it goes V - after Constable's Salisbury Cathedral across the Meadow's". Priced at ยฃ11.5k. I think it's stunning.

MAGGI HAMBLING OILS ON BOARD & CANVAS!, by Coach on May 3, 2011 22:44:26 GMT 1, Cant afford a painting, so a book is often the second best thing.
I have this one, and would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of her work.
www.amazon.co.uk/Works-Maggi-Hambling/dp/0906290848/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1304458149&sr=1-1
Also - I remember her being a team captain (or something like that) in an old TV programme, smoking away, with a very cutting wit. Can any of the older members remember what it was called, as I cant for the life of me remember??
