Almost Set!

The Studio Gallery Solihull is coming together well with such a wonderful selection of artwork! Acrylic paintings, watercolour, oil pastels, glass work, and felting from seven local artists.

The window display is almost set and it’s bright and eye catching! Featuring one piece from each artist.

So, instead of saying ex-Lakeland Plastics it’s now most definitely Studio Gallery Solihull 🎉

We open on Thursday evening!

Coming Soon!

Next instalment of Studio Gallery Solihull! It’s all shaping up nicely, with so many of us working well together getting the preliminary jobs done!

None of us have started from scratch with a previously owned shop unit before and the cleaning and general preparation needed for good presentation is key! Delivery of original artwork and crafts is programmed in once the furniture has been delivered over the weekend with the shop window display going ahead on Tuesday morning!

Each of us are now selecting our own artwork for display inside the gallery, having now sectioned the space per artist in the Touchwood Shopping Centre unit, Solihull. It’s very exciting but also a relief to have made great strides into our new venture!

Next instalment will have opening days and photos!

Till then, adieu!

Coming Soon!

The end of the Summer Warwickshire Open Studios this Weekend 5 & 6 July ‘25

What a wonderful summer to host the annual WOS! Thanks to all my friends, neighbours and students who have travelled to see my exhibition in the Warwickshire countryside!

The watercolour paintings have proved very popular with the theme of English Countryside Hedgerows, and associated gift cards both hand painted and printed.

The sun has streamed in as I’ve chatted to visitors, or sat and painted. It’s being an excellent use of time and situation.

Come and visit on our final weekend, there’s plenty to see!

Designing for Christmas!

It might sound strange but come August Christmas card designs for private clients started!

Researching trends and colours for this year and design ideas resulted in one of the designs: Christmas in a Bottle. Work in progress… 🎅🏻

One of the Christmas card designs showing work in progress, 2020

Come October I will be encouraging students to create their own designs to send out to their loved ones 💕 🎄
