Every Sunday Bayswater Road in London W2 is transformed into the world's liveliest open-air art show. Sidewalk-art at its best. This world famous show on the railings of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park is licensed by Westminster City Council. The Princess Diana Memorial Garden, the Peter Pan statue and the world's favorite Oxford Street shopping centre are all nearby.
Over 250 artists and craftsmen display their own original works - meet the artists and choose from thousands of different exhibits. There are oil paintings, acrylics, watercolors, drawings, pastels, sculptures in wood and metal, enamels, collages, in fact pictures in every medium, size, and subject from contemporary abstracts and traditional landscapes to the tiniest miniature flower paintings.
All exhibits are for sale at studio prices and what you see is what you get - you take your purchase away with you. We are experienced in catering for overseas visitors and can advise on packing and shipping. Paintings can be safely rolled and packed in tubes for taking home as hand luggage, and most artists are happy to sell pictures without the frame if you wish.
Some artists are members of Royal Art Societies, others have exhibited at he Royal Academy, many are established names that are known worldwide, some are unknowns who may be the Van Gogh of tomorrow.
