Revolutionary, because we have a maximum of 9 photographers, hand-picked from round the world, with each showing only 6 stunning works. Exclusive because we have exclusive rights to all the work in our gallery. All of which come in a limited edition of 25, whatever the print size. (The quintessential 25, indeed.) A small, select set of unique prints. Nothing else. Quality. Not quantity. Seemingly, a rarity these days.

Ripley creates artworks using the highest resolution medium-format cameras currently available in combination with extensive work in post-production. This process gives him the foundation upon which to produce work of extremely fine detail, clarity and scale, creating anatomically precise portraits of horses which would be impossible to achieve by any other means. Working at magnifications of over one-thousand percent, every element of the picture is crafted to the width of a single pixel, something unachievable with the human eye or by using traditional painting or drawing techniques. Portraits can take up to 500 hours to produce.

From a 20 year history of producing works with an eclectic client list which includes the Beckham’s to Beyonce, and Aston Martin to Lamborghini, Ripley moved away from commercial work in 2011 to focus on creating personal pieces, specialising in equine portraiture. Ripley’s passion for the genre has already bought many special moments; from working with great horses such as ‘Pivotal’ (the picture forms part of the permanent collection at Palace House in Newmarket), ‘The Gurkha’, ‘California Chrome’, ‘Galileo Gold’ and ‘Big Bucks’, to being commissioned by Her Majesty The Queen to create a portrait of her Royal Ascot Gold Cup winning horse ‘Estimate’. Ripley’s large-scale artworks were also used on billboards to promote the Qatar Goodwood Festival in 2015 & 2016.

At present, Ripley is currently in the middle of a 3 year project creating a series of twelve large-scale pieces with The Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment.

A new contemporary gallery, both online and High Street based in Petworth in their own Grade II listed building, recently renovated to create an outstanding gallery space. The gallery will focus on contemporary work from emerging and mid-career artists.  

Our Vision is to establish The Dragon Gallery as a respected player on the Contemporary art scene, by providing a proactive platform for artists to develop, that will aim, with our special advisor’s presence and the support of our gallery, to provide a cultural hub for events – workshops, artists’ talks, readings, guided tours, and artist’s residencies. 

We plan to participate in Art Fairs in London and locally in West Sussex. Our first Art Fair is appropriately, the inaugural West Sussex Art Fair at Goodwood in May 2019, and with the support of our Head of Projects and Senior Curator, we have a planned programme of Arts Fairs during the next 12 months. 

The Directors David Todd and Amanda-Grace Pope have extensive experience in art sponsorship, artist support and curation. They are joined by George Blacklock ex-Dean of Chelsea & Wimbledon Colleges of Art, as Special Advisor and Mara Alves as Head of Projects and Senior Curator.

The Dragon Gallery’s mantra is ‘less is more’ hence the focus on no more than five artists from our portfolio to exhibit at West Sussex Art Fairs (West). We aim to create a spacious environment exhibit where a consistent dialogue will be set up – between the artists and the different mediums presented in a minimalist display to ensure the viewers will have an eye-pleasing and comprehensive experience. 

Artists The Dragon Gallery will include at Sussex Art Fairs are; Fernando Velazquez, Mandii Pope, Marco Piemonte, Michelle Heron and Lox Atkinson
