Seaside art, from the shoreline to the harbour wall.

Every artwork in the gallery is available as a limited edition print. I handle orders personally by email, so you’ll always be talking to me.

How to order

1. Choose a print from the gallery and note its name.
2. Send me a message using the contact form with the name of the print and the size you’d like, A4 or A3. You can also email alex.vick@gmail.com.
3. I’ll reply to confirm and arrange payment and delivery.

Both sizes include free UK delivery. Prints are on 265gsm satin (oyster) premium paper and arrive in an ice white mount with a cream core backing, ready to drop into a frame. Each is packed by hand in a cellophane bag and sent in a card envelope.

Caring for your print

Your print should never be placed in direct sunlight or over a heat source (like a radiator) as this will likely cause the ink to fade over time. To prevent sun damage for prints that do receive some sunlight, use glass that is specifically coated to shield objects from harmful ultraviolet rays.

I also produce commissions: individually tailored paintings that include material and references of sentimental importance, such as theatre tickets, newspaper cuttings, important dates and other personal details.

As these commissions are so personal, they need a very collaborative process, and I always feel privileged to make something so special.

I run art workshops for schools and adult learning programmes. Children and adults get to explore my techniques while working together on a collaborative painting project through the day.

Get in touch and we can plan a rewarding and memorable day for your students.

About me

Growing up in Sidmouth, Devon, I was born with a love of the seaside. As a teenager I spent many hours sketching the cliffs and dramatic seascape of Sidmouth and the surrounding area. I was always fascinated by fishing boats, and that carries through to the work I do now.

When I was starting out I wanted an original, eye-catching style that would stand out from the more traditional watercolours and oils of coastal scenes. I began experimenting with mixed media, combining newspapers, magazines and acrylics.

You’ll often find me at my easel, surrounded by torn pages from recycled magazines and newspapers, foraging for the perfect material and colours to lay down the foundations of my paintings. Sometimes the perfect quote or article turns up unexpectedly, which adds to the fun and spontaneity of the work.
