Warwickshire Open Studios 2021

With two weeks to go to Warwickshire open studios, preparations are well under way. Marketing material is going up, invites going out, work is being mounted and framed. I’ve been learning new promotional skills and added two videos to my profile on the Warwickshire Open Studios website, both of which I share below along with an invitation to my event. The videos are an insight into my working life.

June news

Preparations are well underway for Warwickshire Open Studios. I am again exhibiting with 8 other artists in Ettington Church.

It’s very exciting to be part of this event. I have completed many new piece of work, though inevitably some things will have to wait for the next show, as they are not quite ready! I have two exhibitions in November already in the calendar and I have recently added a two week show at Rugby Art Gallery for February 2020. Here I will be exhibiting alongside another artist. Our working title is 2 Blue.

Also and very happily, The White Horse Gallery opened on the 8th June. I am privileged enough to have be included amongst their many artists. It’s a great new contemporary looking space. For more information see http://whitehorsegallery.co.uk/
