The Godward Memorial Art Gallery
Credits & Acknowledgements

The Curator and Staff of the Godward Memorial Art Gallery would like to thank the following individuals for their invaluable support and complimentary reviews:

Charles Faris

One of the featured artists in the Gallery, a small sample of whose voluminous output can be viewed alongside other carefully selected examples of contemporary Faerie Art. If you have never seen the adamantine, incandescent delights that this gifted, talented man has to offer, then take my eulogies as an indication that I am utterly enchanted by his work ... his special gift deserves far, far wider recognition, and I for one shall strive to see that the spellbinding beauty of his world is made known far and wide. To see the full, breathtaking majesty of this man's exquisite vision, and in particular the faintingly beautiful faeries of his realm, click upon the canvas below and visit his site!




Lynne McMullan

A poetic, gentle soul who has done much to bring sunshine into my life, along with her delightful little Pickles (who appears in two of Charles Faris' works, depicted as his faeries!) ... if you are reading this, Lynne, try not to blush! I own a considerable debt to this charming and delightful lady for her assistance with respect to the 'look and feel' of the Gallery, and an exhaustive list of helpful comments that have gone a long way toward shaping my final vision for this ambitious personal project. Visitors to Canada (and in particular, the region around Lake Ontario) can enjoy her own special, enchanting brand of hospitality at Reflections On The Bay.

Diana Savage

One of my more exotic and resolutely individual correspondents, whose own art collection has helped to expand the list of works featured within the Godward Memorial Gallery. Likewise, some of the Gallery's exhibits will no doubt find their way (with the Curator's blessing!) into the Diana Savage collection! I recommend a visit to this site, which includes a number of contemporary works (which admittely lie outside my usual choice of viewing) alongside some truly exquisite works by Bouguereau and Tissot (two artists for whon Diana has a soft spot, which I very definitely share after she introduced me to Bouguereau in particular!)

Iian Neill

The Godward Memorial Art Gallery owes a particular debt to this stalwart individual, whose own gallery contains a wealth of Godward paintings, along with paintings by Alma-Tadema, Leighton, Bouguereau and a plethora of other Neoclassical and Academic artists, many of whom I did not even know existed until he introduced them to me! Visit this exquisite, well-planned and extensively stocked gallery (which exists in two versions) by clicking upon one of these canvases:

Carol Gerten (Jackson)

This woman maintains one of the most extensively stocked art galleries on the Web - her collection is truly immense, and must number literally tens of thousands of works! Her site (which has numerous mirrors around the world) would take a month to fully explore ... and that is a month of non-stop Web surfing! Go visit her and her site ... and prepare to faint with shock when you see just how huge it is (and how wonderfully put together)! My special debt to her comes courtesy of discovering my all-time favourite Rossetti painting, A Vision Of Fiammetta, in all its glory, after just two clicks upon the Altavista Search Engine - I nearly fainted with joy when I saw it! Click upon the canvas below to visit her site:




Glen

Sadly, I could not take you on a tour of a real gallery, due to circumstances beyond my control, but I promised you that I would give you a gallery tour, so here it is! Hopefully, in the future, I will be able to take you on the tour of the Lady Lever Art Gallery that I promised you, but until then, here is my very own art gallery for you to visit! Once again, thank you for everything ...

The Staff At "Frog"

This is a wonderful shop, whose address is:

39 Regent Street
RUNCORN
Cheshire
United Kindgom
Tel : (+44) 01928 500188

which stocks all kinds of amazing things such as talking frogs, giraffes on stilts, metallic dragonflies on sticks and goodness knows what else! It also stocks a truly colossal range of prints, including all of my favourite works by Rossetti, Waterhouse, Godward et al, and I simply could not wrap up this page without giving them a little free advertising by way of thanks for having provided me with some truly delightful images! Go visit this shop, fall in love with it, and be enchanted by its contents ... a little haven of sweet serendipity in the midst of a chaotic world.
