Open Studios in Stroud 9th-10th May and 16th-17th May 2015

Once again I will be taking part in Stroud Open Studios week-ends in May, as one of more than 80 artists participating in this event, now in its 19th year.

I look forward to welcoming people from all over the country and often also from overseas to my own studio in Bisley Road, which is listed in the yellow Open Studios  brochure now available online at www.sitefestival.org.uk. You can also pick up a hard copy of the brochure from many outlets in Stroud including the Tourist Information office in the Subscription rooms.  The "Sub Rooms" will be hosting the Taster Exhibition where one piece of  work by each of the artists taking part will also be on show. This Taster runs from 1st May through to 16th May. Please check Stroud Subscription Rooms for Opening times as these may vary throughout the week.

My own preparations are well under way, and I have started to hang my latest pictures in my studio, where I will be showing original stamp collages, prints and will also have greetings cards on sale.  I also have a Quiz for children, which some adults also like to do!!   Hope to see you .. and will have the kettle on!

My studio is a The Lawn, 132 Bislye Road, Stroud - full directions in pen Studios Brochure. Please park in Bisley Road near Cemetery due to limited parking adjacent to studio. It's just a short walk along the unmade road which will be well sign-posted.

Site Festival 2013 Open Studios May 2013

This year there will be a Taster exhibition in Stroud Subscription Rooms, in George Street in the centre of town. All the artists taking part in the Open Studios week-ends of  11/12 and 18/19 May will be displaying a piece of work in the Taster exhibition. Visitors can then plan a route around studios they'd like to visit.  The Taster exhibition is on from 4th - 19th May and will be open on Saturday 4th 6-9 pm and Sunday 5th 2 - 4pm.  Monday to Saturday  opening hours are then 10-5pm with two special Sunday openings of 12th and 19th from 11-4pm.
The piece I am displaying is one of a series of  original garden stamp collages.  Cards and prints will also be available in my studio.  Paintings, collages, photographs and 3D work will be displayed in the order they appear in the Yellow Site 2013 Open Studios brochure. Copies of the brochure and the programme for the festival will also be available from the Subscription rooms.
