About this Event
To end 2025, we are showing Liverpool through the eyes of 30 of our artist members. Expect to see their skill and talent applied to the broad spectrum of inspiration available in the city, bringing together both well-known and brand-new views.
Buildings that form part of the fabric of Liverpool are shown in all their grandeur, or decay. Wildlife that surrounds us every day are delicately and lovingly portrayed. Footballers are immortalised, alongside lobsters, carousel horses and herons.
And of course, expect a sighting of the rarest of local wildlife, the SuperLambanana.
This is a unique opportunity to showcase our Artist Members. Our group shows often feature a select few, but here we highlight a diverse cross-section of artists we support and the range of their practice.
Kevin Pollard, our Liverpool Art Fair 2025 People’s Choice Award winner and previously an award-winning costume designer turns his attention to. Kevin’s paintings are filled with colour, texture and movement, including a joyful portrait of a galloping carousel horse in Albert Dock.
Dave Rayward finds inspiration poetic impulses all around us, including prose and text from classical literature. His work in this exhibition reimagines a painting by John Atkinson Grimshaw (1836–1893) of the Liverpool Docks into a fascinating contemporary rendition, beaming with the neon allure of the docks we know today.
New member Graham Seaman shares his technique of combining black and white photography with paint to create abstract borders.
Nicola McGovern’s four bird portraits depict Liverpool’s most spotted avian inhabitants and are made from multiple layers of intricate hand-cut paper. Her larger body of work has seen her depict seascapes, Lark Lane, Granby Winter Garden and Bramley Moore.
Longstanding member Kathy Dereli has looked to the streets very familiar to us at dot-art for inspiration. Castle Street and Water Street are dreamily recreated in oils. Detail in buildings we often overlook immerge through a warm mist, showcasing her incredible talent with the medium.
As always, we support local, affordable art and finish another amazing year by celebrating our artists, and our city.
We want to enable everyone to enrich their lives through art, whether that is through our Artist Membership, offering affordable original art or bringing art into public and private realms with murals and art rental. You can help us with this goal by giving the gift of a handmade original piece, and we have vouchers for any budget available to gift for the art lover in your life.
All artworks are for sale.
