I know art is personal - so this isn't a comment on whether it's good or not - but I find it really odd that every single picture in this giant house looks to be by the same artist. It made me wonder whether it's a new home that has been dressed for sale as it feels a bit empty. But then why would you have electronic equipment and wires on show and air fresheners plugged in?

Looks like someone has moved out. Art doesn’t match the rugs/furniture though?

What pointlessly massive rooms! Footballer mcmansion?

It’s not unusual for rich people to have terrible taste in art

The most expensive house ever sold on Wigton Lane was £1.8 million.
The pool of buyers must be tiny, more of a puddle.

Maybe the owner is the artist? It's certainly not my taste but I don't think it's that unusual.

I've found two using Google Lens, they're both by Todd White:

I suspect it's been dressed and the agency have a lot of Todd White prints, but it might just be an uber-fan.

Good sleuthing @SnapdragonToadflax

It’s funny but in a huge pile like that, I tend not to focus on the art, though I bet I would if it was stunning…
The overwhelming size of it all is very distracting, though in a ‘thank god I don’t have to clean it, maintain it and heat it’ sort of way.

Well, I didn't know this artist, he's American, and his originals are 65K each, so for the price of the house they could well be a mix of some originals and prints. Some are clearly prints. But a 3 million pound house owner can probably afford some high end costing art!

No idea about the artwork but god what a bland and boring house.

It's the bench marooned on a sea of patio that sums up the house for me.

If you search for the owner via the address, looks like he's is a bit of a financial pickle.

Agree with the bench and patio, also the front garden having been sacrificed at some point to the God of Tarmac.

It looks like it was on the market for about 3.6 million at the start of the year. Very ambitious! My view is that once it's past a certain size it starts to lose appeal because of the upkeep.

It's sadly soulless isn't it. ?

Very odd that there's no personal possessions. No personality. Nothing on the shelves. Those armchairs on the landing seem pointless. The lounge with no rug. If they've moved out, why is the art still on the walls? It does feel as if the place has been dressed but they ran out of stuff, eg no towels in the bathroom.

Just about all the pics in my house, and all the oils and drawings, are mine. Just a photo and some prints of other artists' work. Because it's my job....and I can't afford my mates' paintings, and they can't afford mine.😊
Also can be shown to any professional contacts who may visit.

Oddly enough, in the studio I have lots of prints and postcards up, all by other artists. I have a positive gallery of postcards of paintings from art galleries all over the place in clip frames, and posters for major exhibitions that I've liked.

Tasteless bland crap to match the rest of the house.

Crappy newbuild screaming "new money"

@BlueMongoose Yup, one of my friends is an artist and she has lots of her own art up in her house. It's either sentimental pieces she doesn't intend to sell, or work she's hoping to place in galleries.
