Open Weekend 20th/21st November 2021
The last open weekend went so well, I have decided to make this a regular event. Although this November one will be the last one before Christmas, so a good opportunity to get some Christmas shopping done (or I can rustle up a gift voucher if you are nervous about choosing a painting for someone else).
Open weekends are a chance for you to visit my studio… ahem… kitchen… and see paintings in progress, finished works, prints, cards, fridge magnets etc. There is no obligation to buy anything, it’s always lovely to meet and chat with people who like abstract art!
At the last weekend, I started selling cards and some figure studies by other artists; this proved very successful, so I’ve expanded that approach and will also be stocking cards and paintings by amazing artists: Lisa Rippon, Lois Cordelia, Loraine Wilson, Jo Clavier, Mandy Renton, Marian Lishman, and Mary Biddlecombe. Who knows, maybe this is the early stages of my own gallery business!
There is no need to make an appointment during this opening time, however in light of the continuing situation, threats of firebreaks and so on, we will remain socially distanced if necessary, we can wear masks if you are more comfortable with that, and spare masks, gloves and sanitiser will be available. I have had both my COVID 19 vaccinations, and I also do rapid lateral flow testing regularly.
Of course it goes without saying, please do not come if you think you may have Covid 19; visits can always be arranged separately at a later date.
I am located in Felixstowe, and I will give you the exact address if you message me or send me an email through my contact form. But you may have already seen the paintings in my front window!
Other things you need to know:
there might also be one or more builders coming and going and/or my husband
I have 4 cats and 2 dogs, and although I will do my best to put them in a different room, there could be escapees. If you have allergies, please take your own precautions as necessary and also please let me know in advance, especially if you are nervous around animals
because of house renovations, I am unable to provide access to a toilet; there are amenities located on the seafront a two-minute walk from my house
wheelchair access could be difficult, this has never been tested
Thank you and look forward to meeting you!
