Consultancy

Art Cotswold offers an art sourcing and consultancy service to private buyers, collectors, interior designers, property developers, hotel owners and corporates to help them find the perfect artwork for their walls.

Although the idea of hunting for art sounds an enticing prospect, time restraints and busy work schedules often make it unrealistic. That’s where we can help – our small team of specialists are here to share their combined years of knowledge.

Following detailed conversations and a project brief, we will use our extensive network of artists and contacts to find exactly what you are looking for. Understanding your desires, the architecture of your home or building, interior style, existing artwork, business identity and budget will allow us to present work to you and advise on hanging and framing.

We work with both established and emerging artists to fit different budgets in a range of styles and mediums. These vary from traditional to the more decorative and highly contemporary. The process of commissioning paintings for a special person or occasion can be a daunting process, one which we are able to guide you through from start to finish.

If you have a project that you think we could help with, we’d be delighted to discuss it, so please get in touch gallery@artcotswold.com

  • “Art Cotswold were brilliant in sourcing and placing artwork at the Lygon Arms – it really makes each room come alive and sparks a lot of discussion amongst our visitors. We found them to be incredibly helpful, saving us time and effort to find artwork that we could never have discovered ourselves.”

  • "Art Cotswold guided me through the process of commissioning a special painting for my home. I felt completely daunted by the whole idea, but they made the whole experience fun and memorable. I would highly recommend their service."

    Private Client

  • "We recently moved from a period property to a contemporary, city residence. Art Cotswold worked closely with our interior designer to source and place unique artwork throughout. We didn't know where to start with such a blank canvas, and we love the results! The incredible paintings and prints are a continual source of discussion for guests and a real pleasure for us."

  • "The artwork is in situ and we are both absolutely delighted with the painting. It's taken us five years since we built our house to find the right piece of art and it was worth the wait, so an enormous thank you Kim! It fits the space and creates a real centre of attention in our sitting room. We spent our honeymoon in the Hebrides so it has a special association for us.
