Cows and Cathedrals
Just a stones throw away from the impressive Canterbury Cathedral sits a gallery full of unique artwork from top British creatives. And now, some Cows! The Lauren’s Cows herd have taken up residence in Stark Gallery in the beautiful city of Canterbury. You can’t compare an image on a computer screen to an actual painting in the flesh which is why we are so excited to be the featured artist at Stark Gallery this Summer. Read more about the exhibition here…
I met Emma owner and curator of Stark Gallery while exhibiting at The British Craft Trade Fair. We got chatting about my Cows paintings and her gallery and it wasn’t long before we were setting a date for my herd
Emma opened her gallery in 2005 with the vision to display and promote Britain’s artisans. Specialising in only original artworks, Stark Gallery is home to unique one off pieces created my skilled artists of all mediums. With jewellers, ceramicists, painters and woodworkers Stark Gallery offers a great range of pieces for all tastes.
We are passionate about finding a variety skilled artists and craftspeople from across the country and showcasing them all under one roof – Emma
Canterbury City is an incredibly popular tourist destination being consistently one of the most visited cities in the UK. Tourists flock from far and wide to experience this historical city including the Roman city Wall, St. Augustine’s Abbey, The Castle and the King’s School. However it’s surrounded by beautiful countryside filled with beautiful Cows
So if you’re fancy a weekend break this summer then why not take a trip over to Canterbury and go see the cows in Stark Gallery for yourself!
