Jacob Gourley

'Jacob Gourley is a representational oil painter whose appreciation of traditional art has been the driving force in shaping his artistic career and honing his craft. In 2017 he graduated with a 1st class Ba hons in fine art from the University of Gloucestershire, during which he was awarded a scholarship to study for a month in Rome. 

Since graduating, Jacob has continued a studio based practice, exploring various themes in his work, carrying out numerous commissions and delivering workshops.'...

...'To date....

 

At the heart of Jacob’s practice is keen attention to the artwork’s formal qualities, such as shape, tone, edges, colour, and composition. To date, Gourley has exhibited in a number of group and solo shows  and was awarded 1st Prize in the Wirral Society of Arts Open exhibition in 2019 for his painting ‘82 - St John’s to Toxteth’. In 2022, he won first prize in the Belle View Arts Festival for his painting Lotus II and since has acquired gallery representation with the Soden Collection, Shrewsbury. 

 

Currently he is working from his Shropshire home studio and is taking on commissions.

I am now offering live wedding painting, which means I will attend your wedding and begin to paint your Individual wedding painting in whatever pose you desire and then finish off the rest of the artwork at my studio.

I will then deliver it to you if you are local or can post it out to you.

Please call me now for availability and prices and I will explain exactly what I can offer you.

This is the perfect wedding gift for anyone who wants to give the couple that unique and perfect wedding gift.

 Having Hammond Galleries visit my home with a selection of artwork was an absolute joy. There was no pressure or obligation to buy and having the opportunity to see the artwork in the chosen space meant that immediately you could bring your vision of a room to life. In the same visit we discussed a further 3 pieces for the extension we have just completed and Edward will be returning next week to present the artwork.
