I am Richard Rowland, a mosaic artist based in Chatham, Kent. I design and make modern mosaic artworks for private homes and gardens, commercial premises and public sites. A good mosaic is a beautiful work of art but mosaic has other special qualities to offer. A wide range of materials can be used in mosaic making, giving great variety of surface, texture and colour in both two and three dimensional work. Mosaics can be extremely tough and durable.
The South Galleries is the new Art spot in the heart of Maidstone, on the first floor of the Royal Star Arcade.

Whether you already are a seasoned collector or want to start your art collection, The South Galleries can respond to your needs by presenting you the works of emerging local and national artists as well as well established international artists.
I take my inspiration from Nature, drawing and making prints of the birds, plants and animals I see around me everyday and sometimes those that are a little harder to find. Sketching from life is the starting point of everything I do, it feeds both my drawing and printmaking. I am especially interested in birds, how our relationships with them shift over time, what we have lost and gained. Guest Artist at Gingerbread Gallery, Hadlow. Solo exhibition, Below 65 Gallery, Maidstone.

We seek out and celebrate the homegrown creativity of the newly fledged, as well as more firmly established practitioners. Handmade prints, drawings and papercuts exist alongside ceramics, jewellery, stationery and books. From time to time a one-person or group show colonises the walls. Frank, then, exists in a hybrid space-somewhere between a gallery and a shop-yet still inhabits a real space: near a harbour, by the sea, in Whitstable on the north Kent coast. We'd be pleased to meet you.
