I am very excited to be having an Open Studio on Saturday, 25th May 2024, 10am-4pm.

There will be the grand unveiling of the largest painting yet! (of Barmouth).

Last month, Sue said “I’ve finished my Barmouth painting! There are 39 boats and over 150 windows and doors on the buildings in the painting. What a marathon! It took over six months to paint it.

I will be holding an Open Studio in May so that people can come and view the whole, huge painting at 90cms x 70cms.“

I have added lots of local scenes since my last open studio, also held at my house in Newtown. There will be originals in oil or acrylics of local scenes on sale as well as framed giclee prints for sale. These are all available for sale on the website in the online shop, so if you see something you like, mention it to me and what your favourite is, and you are then welcome to purchase it immediately at the open day or later in the comfort of your own home.

The Open Studio will be held at Bodlondeb, Back Lane, Newtown, SY16 2NH. Look for the black and white house with bay windows. There is free admission and refreshments will be provided.

Seagull’s view over Barmouth nears completion (and it’s not red any more!)

I have been working on the amazing view from the hill behind Barmouth for the last 6 months. You may have seen it on Facebook of Instagram at various stages.

I started with a scarlet/ orange base coat before drawing the key features on in pencil and beginning to block in the sea and hills.

With approximately 40 boats, 27 buildings and literally dozens of windows, this has been the most challenging painting I have ever tackled. And it is huge too, 90cm by 70cm!

I am hoping to finish it in the next week, and will be holding an open studio, with this painting as the main feature, although other of my works will be on display too.

I am very excited to be having an Open Studio. Believe it or not, the last one was 12 years ago, not long after we moved to Newtown.

I am beavering away, and it certainly feels as if we are living in an art exhibition! 🙂

I have added lots of local scenes since 2010, and our house will be open on Friday 1st April from 2pm-5pm and on Saturday 2nd April, 2022 from 10am-5pm. Entry is free. There will be oil and acrylic paintings of local scenes on sale and also framed giclee prints.

Our house is Bodlondeb, Back Lane, Newtown, Powys. SY16 2NH.
