Limited edition prints of Newcastle

Alan Reed is based in Newcastle upon Tyne and has produced a wide range of limited edition prints capturing the character of the North East. From Jesmond Dene and the Quayside to Newcastle Football Club and the Theatre Royal, each piece reflects the atmosphere and detail of these well-known locations. The Quayside itself offers striking architecture and constant inspiration, and as an area that has changed significantly over the past twenty years, many of Alan’s paintings have become a visual record of the city’s evolution.

Artwork for business spaces

Materials and presentation

Available as original paintings, limited edition fine art giclee prints or canvas pieces, each option is produced to maintain quality and consistency.

From original painting to signed print

Every print in this collection begins as an original watercolour or oil painting by Alan, painted in his studio in Ponteland. Each image is then reproduced using fine art giclée printing on archival paper, which preserves the delicate washes, texture and colour of the original. Every print is hand signed and numbered by Alan, and each edition is strictly limited, so once it has sold out no more copies will be made.

Tyneside landmarks in watercolour

The collection covers the landmarks that define the city and its surroundings: the Tyne Bridge at sunset, the elegant curve of Grey Street, Grey's Monument, the Theatre Royal, Jesmond Dene and the ever changing Quayside, along with the Angel of the North just across the river in Gateshead and the home of the Magpies at St James' Park. If you are planning a visit, NewcastleGateshead is a good starting point for exploring these places for yourself.

A gift with local meaning

A signed print of a familiar street, bridge or view makes a thoughtful present for anyone with ties to Tyneside, whether they still live here or have moved away. Prints are shipped across the UK, Europe and internationally, and a full bespoke framing service is available at the studio if you would like your print ready to hang.

He was also one of the finalists on BBC2's Show Me The Monet with his painting of Grey Street.
