LIONS OF WINDSOR As a passionate conservationist, Robert was thrilled to be invited to participate in the Lions of Windsor & Maidenhead 2019 public art event. The event saw a giant pride of life-sized lion sculptures, each individually-decorated by talented artists, displayed across the Royal Borough - including Robert’s dazzling super-sized lion, Leonidas, which he adorned with his signature dripped paint style. Designed to mark the 200th anniversary of the birth of Queen Victoria, the art trail raises funds for charity by inviting businesses and organisations to sponsor the eye-catching lions, each of which will be auctioned off by Christie’s, the international auction house. All proceeds will be shared between local charities including The Lions Hospice, The Dystonia Society and The Thames Valley Hospice. Robert Oxley Castle Fine Art, Platinum Networking and Go Bespoke invited their collectors and VIP clients for an evening by the great British seaside in May. After a drinks reception on terra firma, guests climbed aboard the British Airways i360 viewing pod and took to the skies to enjoy stunning views over the coast whilst viewing a collection of our artwork, and meeting the artists behind them. Our first aerial exhibition showcased works by Dan Lane, Alex Echo, The Augmentists Scarlett Raven and Marc Marot and Paul Kenton, who unveiled a new painting that he created as an event exclusive, titled The Great British Seaside. "It was very special to get to meet other clients and view Brighton from above, enjoying the viewwith wonderful art." – Corrine - Castle Fine Art collector Brighton i360
