About the piece
The iconic monochrome faces created by Jim Dowie emerge from the canvas through an abstract world of colourful intersecting lines. Each feature is beautifully described, yet close examination reveals that the immaculate detail is the result of a seemingly haphazard linear journey through a wide spectrum of light and energy Jim’s highly personal and recognisable style developed in a fascinating way. He spent some time working as a fingerprint expert in forensics and he was struck by the artistic possibilities of the unique sequences and formations formed by the whorls and ridges. This led him to start exploring non-uniform linear structure which he describes quite simply as ‘the art of line”. Bowie by Jim Dowie

"Fabulous service from David and Evie. Love my latest purchase delivered personally last night !"- John Coates
We were looking for a unique piece for my parents 50th anniversary. The ladies were very helpful and gave great ideas what pieces represented. We chose a lovely puffin sculpture called rocky romance. I would definitely recommend this gallery who wants one to one custom, knowledge of their pieces.Rachel Cowel
Fantastic service from the Beverley gallery. Both David and Evie were helpful and knowledgeable. We decided on 2 Tom Butler prints and David was happy to bring them to our home so we could see them in situ and answer any questions we had. We are delighted with both and would definitely recommend Trent GalleriesCathy Scarr
Tracey is a pleasure to deal with and I have made many purchases from her. She knows exactly what I like and is hugely responsive and accommodating - even finding me pieces I have seen elsewhere. My gallery of choice always!Natalie Eshelby
