This is a strange request for me to put on my blog, so please bear with me.
My father, James Joseph Callan, was a Slade trained artist who died in 1976. He had exhibited in many places in Ireland and sold numerous of his paintings worldwide.
I am now doing research to find some of his paintings so that I can get a collection together.
Within the family we have approximately fourteen and it would be wonderful to see some more of his work. Unfortunately all the documentation was destroyed after his death, otherwise the National Library in Dublin were set to catalogue his work.
Towards the end of his life he specialised in minature art with fine art details as well as larger fine art paintings.
If you know anyone who has a James Joseph Callan (JJ Callan) piece of art, please get in touch with me at am.callan@yahoo.co.uk. You can't imagine how grateful I would be! Even to have a sighting of one of his pieces in a public place, ie corporate or hotel etc, would be wonderful.
Thank you, in advance!
