Bespoke Art Reasonable Priced

Changing the frame of existing artwork, framing an unframed piece or turning your favourite motif into artwork: all this is what we at Arti Farti specialise in. 

We work closely with many of the artists featured in our gallery, who can be commissioned for original artwork based on your desired motif. This is an original, unique piece painted just for you.

Depending on where you plan to showcase your artwork, you may have specific requirements to protect your artwork. We boast a large selection of mouldings, mountboards, clear glass, non-reflective glass and perspex to suit your personal needs.

We help make the finished product one which will take pride of place in both your home and heart. 

About Us

With over 40 years in business, there is a lot to say about us. With a passion for art from a young age, Eddie’s career couldn’t go anywhere else than into the art sector. 

After many years of experience, working for different framing companies, Eddie helped more and more artists to frame their artwork. When he met his wife Lynette in 2007, she was the one to encourage Eddie to make his forever dream come true and start the venture of running his own framing business, Art ‘N’ Joy Framers and Gallery. 

Over the years, Eddie established that there was no easy way to find new art in the area of Ayrshire. With his relationship to both artists and clients, this was the start of Arti Farti – Fine Art Gallery.

Since November 2016, the Arti Farti team is delighted to host original art and signed limited editions separately in an art gallery, while still being able to complement the artwork with its frame.

To quote Eddie’s old boss, which turned into Eddie’s mission, too:

A bad picture needs a good frame, and a good one deserves it.

All of our artwork is professionally framed by Art n Joy Picture Framers and is ready to hang.

With over 40 years framing experience,
we aim to make art part of your heart
and your home.

Landscapes

The sun setting on a lazy midsummer evening, the moon reflecting from the undulating surface of a moody ocean - whatever type of landscape art you like, you may find it here, painted by masters of their art!

Figurative paintings

Often described as the ultimate challenge for an artist - breathing life into depictions of the human form can reveal the greatest of talents.

Sculptures

Working in 3 dimensions takes art to a different level - not necessarily better, nor worse, than a picture painted on canvas, yet undeniably intriguing and enjoyable, sometimes stunning, and occasionally truly masterful.

Our artwork

Here at Arti Farti we specialise in sought-after, original and limited edition artwork. We have over 200 pieces of fine art on display in our showroom in Saltcoats, with many more to follow. All artwork on display in our gallery is artwork that we love. It’s important to us to support the talents who share our passion for art.

Our favourite pieces are where the viewer feels themselves in the scenery when looking at the image. You can smell how the scene smells. You have the freedom of diving into another world. Art is for us an escape from real world and that’s what you can see in each and every artwork that we exhibit in our gallery.

When you decide to get any artwork, not only do you own a wonderful piece to brighten up your wall, you have the privilege of owning original art, a responsibility of care, and of course a real, long-lasting investment.

Celebrated artists & Newcomers

Much of the artwork we show in our gallery is created by artists who are already celebrated in their field. However, we believe in new talent as well, and are proud to support lesser-known artists who are perhaps just starting out. We pick the artists we choose to showcase carefully, not only for the excellence of their work but their tireless effort, aspiration and dedication. 

Some of our artists specialise in landscapes while others deal with more figurative work. We can proudly say that we offer a wonderful selection of original artwork by some of Britain’s best artists, including Alexander Millar, Adam Barsby, Janet McCrorie, Ron Lawson, Jane Morgan, Robert Kelsey and many more.
