Life-sized elephants designed by Scottish artist Jack Vettriano have helped a conservation charity raise more than £1 million pounds at a celebrity auction in London. Hollywood stars Goldie Hawn and film-star turned socialite Elizabeth Hurley watched as Jack Vettriano’s elephant – based on his famous Singing Butler painting – attracted the highest bid of £155,000. Easyspace’s elephant ‘Cosmos’ – which was created by students at Glasgow Metropolitan College – raised £7000 having been purchased by the brand’s parent company iomart Group.

The celebrity auction, held at the Royal Hospital Chelsea, marked the end of the Elephant Parade, a colourful public exhibition of 258 colourful life-sized elephants designed to raise awareness of the plight of the Asian elephant. In all over £1 million was raised – including monies from a raffle drawn by Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie of York. The funds will be used by the organising charity The Elephant Family and 15 other UK conservation charities on projects to protect the Asian elephant.

Jack Vettriano said he was “dumbstruck” by the price of his work but joked at the auction: ”I’m worth every penny. I was absolutely delighted to be asked to take part because it’s such a wonderful cause.”

Sunshine and Champagne by Jack Vettriano will be released in September as a limited edition print as part of the new Tuiga Boxed set .Vettriano’s new exhibition will open in London in late summer

Jack Vettriano fans are currently waiting for details of his new exhibition which is taking place in London this summer. The first leg of the exhibition was a massive success , setting new attendance records in Kirkcaldy.

Jack Vettriano’s new collaboration is with David Knopfler, founding member of Dire Straits. He has allowed his painting of the Drifter to be used as the album cover. Glasgow born Knopfler’s first book of poetry, “Blood Stones and Rhythmic Beasts” was released earlier this year by Blackwing Books. His heroes are diverse, but if pressed to name them, he’ll usually mention such artists as Randy Newman, Joni Mitchell, Lowell George and Bob Dylan.
“Ship of Dreams,” David’s latest recording, was co-produced with lifelong friend Harry Bogdanovs. Recorded mainly in London, it features some of Britain’s finest musicians, including Martin Ditcham, Pete Shaw, Alan Clark, Chris Rea, and Tim Whitehead, in addition to Harry Bogdanovs, who plays guitar, bass and mandolin. Rolling Stones producer Chris Kimsey makes an appearance (as mix engineer) on several tracks and two tracks feature new co-writing partners Megan Slankard and Mack Starks. The album’s cover features a painting , The Drifter ,  generously supplied by Scotland’s most successful living artist, Jack Vettriano.

“Ship of Dreams is easily my best work to date and I dug deeper than I ever have before to create it,” he said. “I hope the critics and public will agree with me.”

The market for Jack Vettriano is strangely schizophrenic at the moment . On the one hand his new exhibition in Kirkcaldy is an outstanding success. At the same time an auction of ten of his paintings was not very successful. Seven of the 10 paintings were not sold
