This little gallery-cum-shop was set up by artist Sharon Elphick to sell her own work and now also sells the work of other local artists. No one minds if you just want to go in for a browse and there are some affordable pieces like postcards if you want to buy something small.

This is a fabulous little gallery shop. What attracted me was the work of artist, Jen Franklin. I was impressed at how supportive they were of their local artists and were knowledgable about their education, background and style. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I visited this gallery while on holiday and I bought a cool book on bubble lettering for a gift to my niece. This shop has great art work, it’s very streamlined and has nice gifts. Looking forward to visiting this street and this gallery shop on my next holiday to London.

An artist friend of mine once advised me to invest in art. It will nearly always appreciate in value apparently. If I save up enough money, I would buy my art here, at Elphick’s. Everything that I see in this shop inspires me. I know that art is objective, but there is something about the contents of this shop that make me think that anything brought here would be a wise purchase. On a Sunday the artist, Sharon Elphick is often here. She sells her work here. They are large prints, or on canvas of patterns of letters, textures, numbers, skies, buildings. They are truly beautiful, and well worth seeing. She also sells work from other artists here.(and runs a blog about all the art in the shop — check out her website blog for more details). One of my favourite prints in this shop is by a label called Dandy Star. It is just a simple print with the letters LOVE emblazoned across it, and call me a sucker for modern art, but I L O V E it too.
