Welcome to Netherfield Gallery Netherfield Gallery is the place where Effie Galletly shows images of her work online, highlighting those pieces inspired by the landscapes and structures of the highlands and islands of Scotland. "The Hebridean islands strike a powerful chord with me and set in motion ideas that I feel compelled to express" The work looks like painting. The method of making is entirely like that of a traditional quilt, the appearance not at all. Over the last few years Effie has produced a substantial body of work focused on Scottish landscape. She has a passion for the colour, light and form of the place. In June 2006 her work was exhibited in a show titled Catching the Light, in Bath, Somerset. As a result of work shown in Morven Gallery, Barvas, Isle of Lewis, writer Eilidh Whiteford in The Hebridean wrote: ‘As a painter would create tone, texture, blend colours with the use of a brush, Effie has cleverly accomplished the same with her use of materials’. For a record of her background and work already shown please see the Effie Galletly page. For the latest pieces, please see the Looking gallery. In 2007 Effie's work was on show in July on the Isle of Harris as part of the Harris Arts Fair. Her exhibition ran at the Seallam Visitor Centre, Northton, Leverburgh from 23rd - 27th July. For the month of October Effie's work was on show at the Cape Breton Centre for Craft and Design in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. This overlapped with the Celtic Colour International Festival in Cape Breton. A number of the works in the galleries are already in private collections. For those which have not already been purchased, there is a price list available. Please click on Contact to request further details.
