Loads of us have boxes of old photographs – some passed down from previous generations and others taken in our youth. For those of us around in the 1960’s, many of our childhood pictures are imprisioned on slides, rarely seeing the light of day. All these precious memories can be given a new lease of life and shared round the family.
Using a special technique, Matt photographs the image and converts it to a high quality digital image. Using his expert photohop skills Matt can then remove blemishes, improve clarity and bring out details that you never know were there. Prints can then be made to fit your frames or of course, you can commission Matt to make you a frame.
Christmas orders by December 11th please.

We have a wall full of colour and light, thanks to Burnley artist Jacky Murtaugh. Find out more about her on our Exhibitions page.
Please remember that our opening hours can be variable over the summer, due to holidays and other events. To avoid disappointment we advise you to ring Aly on 0777 3583072 to double check. We are also happy to open to appointment.
SAVE THE DATE! Our next exhibition opens on Sunday 3rd June at 7.30pm. We will be celebrating the natural world in pixels and paint, from macro studies of flowers to trees to vistas. Expect colour, texture and detail from both of us. The exhibition will then be up for a month before moving on to Garstang Arts Centre. Why not join the Facebook event page here, to keep up with all the latest plus sneak previews.
You are invited to the preview of The Secret Artists Show on Sunday 25th February. We have four local artists for you to meet sharing the disciplines of etching, sculpture, painting and illustration. Find out more on our exhibition page or the Facebook event page.

We now have sample chevrons of Matts framing at the gallery. All can be finished or stained in various ways. All the profiles are designed by Matt and may be tweaked to suit your picture. He only uses reclaimed wood. Ring Matt on 07803 151699 or call in to the gallery. 😁
“Stunning exhibition, enjoyable and thought provoking…”
“Really good partnership of painting and photography”
Here is a mini online exhibition of some of Matt’s artworks that were in the Shoreline Exhibition. Many of them are available as cards as well as prints. They are all printed individually by Matt and are from £40 unframed to £100 mounted and framed. The frames are beautifully made by Matt from recycled oak floorboards and will compliment all homes, from the traditional to the avant garde.
Our next exhibition ‘Shoreline’ opens on the 5th March at Studio22B & gallery, Sough, BB18 6SZ.
It will be a preview evening with a difference, encompassing the sound and vision of the coast. Obviously there will be paintings by Aly (AC Telfer) and photography by Matt (Darkside Photography),
including previously unexhibited work.
All welcome at the preview evening on Sunday 5th at 7.15pm.
