Just over the fence

Dear art collector,

Hi there.

This is my first effort at a newsletter. I was hoping to be able to bring it to you with your own name personalized at the top of the page, but this has proven to be an exercise fraught with difficulties so I've given that idea away for now. I thought it was more important to simply communicate to my collectors.

It has been an intention of mine to keep you up to date from time to time on what I have been doing in the studio, in case there is something I am producing that interests you or somebody you know.

The new painting of the Black Marlin has been out for a little while now and proving in every respect to be as popular as the Stripie, the first one in the series.

Very recently I completed the oil painting shown on my web site called "Just over the fence "

with some of its background story. It measures 1222mm x 702mm.

The person who commissioned me to do the work is thrilled with it and has been getting very favourable comments from various visitors.

You can read the story about the painting on our web site at www.brianmoore.co.nz .

Right at the moment I am working to complete a large bronze sculpture of a Black Marlin powering out of the water with some schooling yellowfin scarpering away beneath it. This is a very dramatic high-action study which will be produced as a very limited edition of just twenty-five numbered castings.

As soon as this piece is completed, in a couple of weeks, I will be looking at taking on some more commissioned work. The painting "Just over the fence" I did for $10,000 which is my current rate for a painting of this type. Of course what I am able to ask for my originals goes up over time, with more demand and recognition of my work, so if you think you might be in the market for something, do get in touch and we can have a look at the idea. With anything like this, now is the best time. More than once I have heard the story of what somebody could have bought an artist's work for, years before his prices were out of their reach.

So, whether it be a landscape, portrait or bronze sculpture you may be interested in, do get in touch with me.

Best wishes,

Brian
