Black Mountain Gallery is a family business started by Muriel Williams and Mark Lloyd Williams (Who are mother and son) back in 1999. We operate from a cluster of old industrial buildings at the edge of the Brecon Beacons / Bannau Brycheiniog National Park in Wales, UK. We have collectors all over the World


We originally ran as a traditional gallery, but as we became busier and our collectors came from a wider and wider area, we eventually became "online-only" This allows us the freedom to concentrate on creating artwork.


Pretty much everything we do is done "in-house" from producing our own giclee prints to hand-pulling etchings and silkscreen prints, even the framing is all done here at our own carpentry shop.

Our office, layout design area and a big digital printer, Muriel Williams hunched down like an arty ninja, painting by the window

Organised chaos: Mark Lloyd Williams surveys his kingdom and says "Oh God, where do I start"

Muriel Williams priming canvases for paintings. We make our own canvases from raw canvas rolls and bare wood so we have total control over quality.

Yes, our style is very distinctive ! This classically painted AK (Not finished image) is now somewhere in the leafy suburbia of the Home Counties of the UK. The limited edition run of prints sold out ages ago, sorry.

Much of our work is large format, we occasionally have some larger paintings for sale here

Suffering for our art. Our workshops are mainly unheated, so we occasionally come in to find this sort of thig in the morning.

Fine detail work, in the cold !

Working very late at night, the eerie mysteries that lurk in the mist just beyond our car park

The old print area

One from years ago, signwriting our name on the front of the building, making a massive 20-foot wide stencil and dabbing on paint blobs to be in-filled later. The deep blue we painted the building instigated a "Karen" attack: a 126-year old harridan living locally said the building had been painted white since the 1950s and there was no need to pain it blue. WHO did we think we were to change things ? The last we heard she was "taking the matter further"
