John and I met in 1986 whilst I was cycling around the Yorkshire Dales, John was Assistant Warden at Hawes Youth Hostel where I stayed a night. After more than a little banter over a pack of cards we exchanged addresses and I invited him to my 18th Birthday Party - rather forward of me but we got on really well and discovered that John would be 21 the day before I was 18 and the date of my party was his 21st Birthday!
Our debut show for this fine young artist who takes inspiration from the rise and fall of the oceans, capturing the sparkle of the sun and the swell of the waves. This body of work will surprise and delight any wave watcher, so if you're a fan of the worlds mighty oceans. The display will show original work as well as limited edition canvases embellished with gold leaf.

Excellent service from start to finish. Easy to place the order online and a convenient delivery date and time was arranged by email. Diane and John travelled a long way to safely deliver the order in person exactly as agreed. Friendly and helpful communication at all times, I would highly recommended to others and wouldn’t hesitate to purchase from Acorn Gallery again. Thank you!

What a fabulous service so often lacking in business these days. Communication from Diane and John was fantastic. I ordered two paintings on the Saturday and received them both the next day, hand delivered as they were delivering in an area close to me. I couldn’t have been more pleased. If I am visiting Yorkshire, a visit to their gallery is definitely on the cards! Many, many thanks.

I originally ordered an embellished print from Acorn, but decided to buy the original shortly after. Diane was fantastic from start to finish; she understood this was an expensive purchase and really went out of her way to give me the information I needed. Most impressively, they drove from Yorkshire, via Essex to Kent to deliver it to me! 5 star service.

Thank you to the Acorn Gallery. I wanted to order a print but needed it framing in quite a short time ready for my husbands birthday. Diane and John had the print framed to match my others and personally delivered it so that it didnt get damaged in transit. Amazing personal service. Thank you - he loved it!

Owners Diane and John are lovely, kept up to date by emails and phone. Plus a personal delivery to deliver my Freddie by Paul Oz. He is gorgeous, don’t know what I expected but it took my breath away at first sight. Loving Freddie in his iconic pose, even more. So thank you Diane and John, he’s worth every penny. ♥️

I ordered two great pieces of art from Acorn Gallery, contacted Diane and John who were extremely helpful. We were kept updated on the arrival date/time and even had them delivered in person which was a bonus and a very nice personal touch, professional friendly run business with excellent customer service I couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you so much we love our pictures and will definitely be back for more in the future. Highly recommended!

My first visit to the Gallery website was a week before Christmas, seeking inspiration for a suitable gift for my wife. Without too much expectation, I was amazed to find the perfect piece of artwork within ten… minutes; It's a Kinda Magic, Freddie Mercury by Paul Oz.
The piece brought back wonderful memories of attending the Queen gig at Wembley Stadium in the summer of 1986, just a few months before our wedding. A never to be forgotten day, Queen were magic and Freddie was....well Freddie. A master of his craft who owned the stage and owned us his adoring public.
The picture brings back

I contacted Diane at Acorn Gallery just before a 'big' birthday three weeks ago about a Mackenzie Thorpe limited piece that I had fallen in love with. Diane couldn't have been more helpful, in fact she totally went the extra mile in arranging a different frame for me to match an existing one on another Mackenzie piece we already have.
And so the day came for my beautiful painting to be delivered and I could not believe that Diane and John hand deliver ALL their pieces to folk who aren't local to the gallery. That's 126 miles each way. Now that is commitment. They truly are the most dedicated,

I recently bought two Hockney posters for my husband's 70th birthday. A difficult choice as my husband knows a lot about art and has a good collection. However. from my original telephone enquiry Graham was really helpful, he sent me images of the frame samples and then once a decision was made he framed and posted the two posters well in time for the birthday. Both packages arrived in immaculate condition. My husband was delighted with his gifts. Thank you Graham.

I have just had personally delivered two pieces of art from John and Diane. From an initial comment to more in-depth discussions regarding two pieces I loved, to swapping frames to suit my room decor, to dealing with my anxious progress enquires and double checking, The Acorn Gallery has provided nothing less than stellar service from start to… finish. Messages are answered quickly, no question is too big or small, no enquiry too much trouble. I have felt in safe and professional, not to mention humorous, hands throughout. Cannot recommend highly enough, especially with large value purchases

100% recomend purchasing from The Acorn Gallery. Our artwork arrived hand delivered from the owner little over a week after ordering. Billiant quality framing and care taken in transit. Excellent supportive customer service throughout. Will have no hesitation to purchase future pieces from here.

What an amazing gallery run by an equally amazing couple. Smooth transaction from beginning to end. And was so nice to have the personal touch with delivery being made in person by Diane and John. Can not recommend them enough. They go above and beyond and are genuinely lovely people. Thank you x

I have just taken delivery of a Kealey Farmer Original Art Work from The Acorn Gallery. I ordered an Autumn Tree from the ‘Seasons’ collection. John and Diane are an amazing couple, so helpful and give a first class service. I would love to visit your gallery when I next visit the York Area. Thank you to you both and of course Kealey for the amazing Tree, I love it and the colours go so well with my room. An extremely well satisfied customer. Jane Fisher

I bought a piece from Acorn as a Christmas present for my partner, Diane was very helpful in getting it delivered in time (to Essex), including to a different address at the last minute, to keep it a secret. Diane was then more than helpful in the New Year when we decided to swap it for a different piece. No fuss at all, very refreshing.
