Built with purpose. Created to do things differently.

An invite-only platform showcasing the very best of independent British craftsmanship - from painting and sculpture to neon, ceramics, and textile art. Every artist here is handpicked for their originality, skill, and the value they bring to the wider Collective.

This isn’t a marketplace. It’s something more considered.
Just a direct connection between collector and maker - where the work speaks for itself, and the artist stays in full control.

At launch, you’ll discover our first '50 Collections' with over 400 original and limited-edition artworks, valued at over £2 million and this is only the beginning. With over 100 artists already part of the Collective - and more joining by invitation - everything here is chosen for its quality, not quantity.

We keep things personal, taking the time to understand what you’re looking for and helping you find work that truly resonates.

Beyond showcasing the work, we actively open new routes to market - brokering commissions, navigating licensing, and connecting artists with collectors, designers, developers, and brands who value originality and craftsmanship.

Artisan Collective exists to champion independent British artisans, share their stories, and put exceptional work in front of the people who truly appreciate it.

BECAUSE STANDARD IS FOR EVERYONE ELSE.

Patrick Palmer

Bringing depth and feeling to the human form.

Based in Windsor, Patrick gave up a successful career in publishing at 40 to do what he always loved - paint. Trained in London and Dublin, he’s developed a quietly powerful style that focuses on the human form, especially the female figure.

Working mainly in oils, his pieces have a calm, emotional pull - built up in soft layers of tone and texture. He takes inspiration from artists like Degas and Schiele but keeps his work honest, personal, and always his own.

Patrick’s shown his work in galleries across the UK and beyond - from London to New York - and also teaches life drawing in Windsor. As he says, “Realism is not enough - it’s what you take away and what you add that turns a picture into art.”

We’re proud to have him as part of the Collective.

The Artisan Exposé offers a rare glimpse behind the curtain - into the minds, methods, and creative spaces of Britain’s most compelling artists. Each exposé captures the journey, craft, and character that shape their work.

We begin with Alan Williams, whose practice bridges precision engineering and wild imagination.
