Geoffrey Key Art
British, b. 1941
Geoffrey Key was born in Manchester in 1941. Attending Manchester’s High School of Art, he progressed in 1958 to degree and postgraduate studies at the Manchester Regional College of Art. Now in his sixth decade as an artist, Key's painting style is instantly recognizable, almost a unique blend of early 20th-century avant-garde with modern 21st-century observation. His color palette has developed over time, from muted tones to the vibrant use of color he is now so well known for. Key's works are held in international private collections and can be seen in many UK public collections.

String of Pearls - Gyotaku Style Sumi Ink Painting of an Octopus, Mulberry Paper
By Jeff Conroy
Located in Chicago, IL
A small octopus is inked in the Japanese style of Gyo-Taku print making. Using sumi ink to "print" the octopus, the artist then embellishes it with colored pencil to convey an extraordinary dimensionality. By printing it on hand-made Mulberry paper, in this case a paper that mimics the undulating patterns of water, the artist achieves a beautiful aesthetic. The artwork is unframed. Please contact the gallery for framing options.
