SteamBritannia™ (404-888-9172)
Guy Maishman, 934 Saint Charles Avenue NE, Atlanta, GA, 30306
Apart from being an avid collector of OO gauge model steam railway locomotives and stock, I have also painted scenes of Britain’s steam railways in oils on canvas for over 20 years, especially of scenes set between the two world wars. Based on historical photographs that uniquely appeal to me, I strive to make my paintings as accurate, detailed and three-dimensional as possible. Each painting has taken me over a year to paint.
Now I am making prints of my paintings available for sale via the Internet. I particularly want to reach out to the BRMNA membership, because you know a lot about my subject matter and are likely to appreciate my artwork. I have established the brand name SteamBritannia™ to market my prints, and they are available on my website. Please visit and choose prints of my images that appeal to you most. They are available in canvas and two types of paper poster in various sizes to suit every budget. I have established relationships with the highest quality digital giclée printers in Atlanta, Georgia and Quebec City, Quebec to serve you locally with low shipping rates.
If you would like to see the complete range of images that is currently available, please visit my website.. If you wish to receive emails with details of new releases, please register on steambritannia.com.
