Gallery Grace | Bristol
Gallery Grace, founded by contemporary artist Cat Tremaine-Tucker, represents an innovative vision in Bristol's vibrant art scene. Located in Clifton Arcade, our independent gallery specialises in original contemporary artwork, with a particular focus on modern interpretations of abstract, dutch flow techniques and contemporary compositions.
​
As both a practicing artist and gallery founder, Cat brings unique insight to curating our collection of original artwork. Her background in contemporary art and mastery of Dutch flow techniques influences our gallery's distinctive approach to representing emerging British talent.
Each piece in Gallery Grace is carefully selected to represent the finest in contemporary art. We exclusively showcase original artwork - never prints - ensuring every collector acquires a unique piece.
​
We provide a vital platform for emerging British artists, offering them space to showcase their original works in the heart of Bristol.

Huw Richard Evans Gallery | Bristol
Born in Pembrokeshire, Huw Richards Evans studied fine art at Bristol Polytechnic, where he gained his degree. He has worked in the creative industry since then, including lecturing in both Fine Art and Fashion Design. Huw became a full-time professional artist in 2014.
Having been featured in various galleries nationwide throughout the years, his work is currently available to purchase from Etcetera Gallery (St. Davids, Pembrokeshire) and Cold Harbour Gallery (Bristol, UK).
Huw also paints many commissions and has had a range of interesting clients, including ITV's Broadchurch and Bristol University. Often textural and with a spiritual quality, his paintings contain drama, passion and energy. For Huw, the painting process is one of great personal joy.
His landscapes have attracted collectors from as far afield as the USA, Japan and Dubai, and he is a regular exhibitor in the UK. Huw is also well-known as a couture fashion designer.​
In winter 2023, Huw opened the 'Huw Richards Evans Contemporary Art' gallery in Bristol's renowned Clifton Arcade.
