Own Art
The Moy Mackay Gallery is a participating member of the Own Art scheme.
Own Art is a national initiative available to UK residents that makes buying contemporary art and craft affordable by providing interest-free credit for the purchase of original work.
You can take home your artwork as soon as your application is approved and then make payment through 10 equal, interest-free payments.
For example, if you wished to purchase a painting costing £1,000 through a successful OwnArt application, you would take home the artwork the same day, and then pay £100 for 10 months.
You can also choose whether to pay a deposit, thereby reducing your monthly payment amount. For the above example, a deposit of £200 would reduce your remaining balance to £800 or 10 monthly payments of £80.
To enable us to begin your application, please complete the form below with details of the artwork you would like to purchase.
Alternatively, please contact the gallery for further information.
The gallery offers a warm, comfortable space where everyone is welcome

About Moy Mackay
Award winning artist Moy Mackay was born in Edinburgh in 1966. She graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1990 and has since lived and worked in the beautiful Tweed Valley in the Scottish Borders.
Using merino fleece fibres and stitch in place of brush and paint she creates ‘felted paintings’ of startling vibrancy and depth where she combines aspects of the traditional craft of felt-making with painting in a magical way. It is a fascinating, absorbing process which requires a fine balance between spontaneity and control, an element she particularly enjoys. Moy's passion is for colour and her work asserts this with luminous vitality. By using fibres in such a painterly way she has developed a unique coupling of a traditional craft within a fine art application, creating a very personal and innovative approach to visual expression. She is regarded as the leading authority of this art form and has had three books published to date, selling 40,000 copies worldwide. She regularly travels the world to teach along with offering online courses, workshops and retreats from her studio.
Moy’s work is exhibited in galleries throughout the UK and in private collections worldwide.
Moy was featured on Sky Arts ‘Landscape Artist of the Year’ in 2016 where she was shortlisted to the final three in her heat.
More of Moy’s work, products, as well as her courses and workshops are available on her website: www.moymackay.com
