He is Britain's most celebrated sculptor with over seventy years of works around the world, his contribution to British Art are his three National monuments, "Tribute to William Blake" in 1989, Blake house Soho. He is married to Josephine Demarne and works mainly from his studio in Hertfordshire, creating his ideas for his next major work of art for clients worldwide.
Price on application The subject derives from the ballet "Romeo and Juliet" by Frederick Ashton. It uses one of the famous 'Pas des Deux that features in that ballet and is so typical of the choreography of Ashton. He causes the two dancers to melt so that they become like one person whilst retaining their individual grace and sexuality.
One of my favourite subjects to try to resolve as the sculpture is that of springboard and high board diving. This was my sport when young, through which I met my wife who is also a diver. The problems posed by this subject are those of expressing movement and grace, athleticism and style, as well as trying to convey the sensation of flight.
The terms "the mastiff group" and "the mastiffs" has been used synonymously with the term "MOLOSSER". As such, any molosser, including BULLDOGS, MOUNTAIN DOGS, PIT BULLS, and even small dogs such as the BOSTON TERRIERS may be considered "mastiffs" in this broad sense. The Mastiff is the classic gentle giant, loving but sometimes stubborn.
The Marquette on show here is a study for both of the large bronzes mentioned below, both of which are over nine feet high and they are all based on my studies of Chinese Tang terracotta horses in the British Museum and in other collections in France and the USA. What I like is the constant reference to sculpture and sculptural solution to observed facts that is so embodied in the Tang horse.

The service I received at ICAS was second to none. I went in to get two prints framed and mounted and the attention to detail and expertise on show was absolutely fantastic. So much thought went into the choice of frames, mount colours and glass and was tailored to the nuances of each print. If you think there isn't an art to picture framing, then ICAS will make you think again. I can't recommend Sunil and his team enough.

I found Sunil a very helpful person and very knowledgeable in all aspects of art and was also imprest with his knowledge in the cleaning of art pieces and of all antiques. If there is something he cannot do himself he has very good contacts within his circle of all repairs of antiques. I wish to thank him for all his help and recommendations
Kind regards

Outstanding product quality, customer service and care. I recently bought a painting from Vilas Fine Art after seeing the piece on their website and it was truly a fantastic buy and experience. Sunil followed the purchase with personal calls and his passion for art is clear. A beautiful piece, very well packaged and professionally delivered. Happily recommend. Dr Mitesh Patel

I can not recommend ICAS Vilas Fine Art in Letchworth enough. The man in there was extremely informative and friendly. I walked in there with 3 prints and came out with an order of 3 beautifully mounted and framed pictures. The man that served us, unfortunately I don't know his name, went above and beyond to explain how the different mounts will… bring out different colours etc. I now have my prints in my living room and they bring a smile to my face each time I look at them. They wouldn't be as amazing without the knowledge and expertise that ICAS Vilas Fine Art have. I can't thank you

ICAS-Vilas Fine Art, Letchworth Garden City. I have known and been a Gallery customer for the last four years. Within this period I have become closely connected and a friend of both Sunil and Devendra.
They have given me a very professional service with respect to all my dealings. The restoration of two small Dutch landscapes which I remember from my youth hanging in a dark corner in my parents house. Now returned to their rightful state.
Also their framing service which is second to none. One in particular. An Arsenal team shirt given to me on my 65th birthday which is outstanding hanging on
