ARTISTS BE WARNED From what I’ve heard, Dot Art charges artists a monthly fee just to sell their artworks. They take advantage of amateur artists who are trying to start out. If you value your work and want to be treated fairly, buy direct from the artist whenever you can.
I’ve had mixed experiences here. First time round we framed a large poster. The framer did not communicate changes of the glass size to us (I requested a floating glass mount), and even thought it looks good the poster is not flat, you can see some warping. The second set of images, one was done really well, the other is a vintage map and it’s been crimped at the edges so you can see the fold. I did email the gallery to find out if they would be willing to look at this but received no response to my complaint. Edit: I received a response a few weeks later - was told owner was away on annual leave. They asked me to bring in the frame which I did at my own cost. A week or so later was informed that the framer had a look and can’t do anything about the faults, with an apology “it’s not what I wanted to hear.” Also the price quoted turned out to be more on collection and I was not told about this over the phone before. I won’t use them again.
Absolutely fantastic framing service!! The service was really speedy which was perfect for my upcoming deadline. The quality of the frames is brilliant - it’s exactly how I imagined them! Thank you!
Lovely gallery with very professional, helpful staff. Framed my 2 pieces beautifully I would definitely recommend them. Thank you
Used these guys to frame some prints we had been given. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They were able to use a painting we already had framed as a reference to ensure the new frames matched. They gave an accurate price estimate at the initial discussion (no appointment needed, I just wondered in), and the work (frames for 5 prints) was completed within just two weeks. I chose UV glass, but they do offer the more expensive art glass if you can afford it, or plain glass if wanting to save money and light not an issue. The frames are done to an exceptionally high quality, and look fantastic. Would recommend for any framing needs.

A wonderful place to see (and buy) sensibly priced works by local artists that give us great pleasure to see on our walls. The gallery is small but the exhibitions change regularly and the annual summer Art Fair on the waterfront is an additional bonus. Thoroughly recommended.
Recently signed up for their membership. Great service and has opened a lot of avenues. As well as my art being looked over by a professional. Their online portfolio looks very smart. The artist they have online have a varied style and the quilty of their work shines through. As well as Dot-art having a lot of openings education related. This enables practicing artists to run paid work shops if they so wish. As well as rental opportunities, to help show case your work. And exabition opportunities sent through through to members emails. Enjoyed my experience with Dot-Art.
