About this event

My open studio is part of a group of Artists Studios in converted stables at Trewidden Gardens. Nearby is Trewidden Gardens and cafe with parking.

To view in my open studio will be oil paintings, prints and cards. I work with oils mostly on canvas and board. The subject matter is landscape based on places I have lived and visited. Most of this is based on coastal Cornish landscapes and more recently work about my homeland Ireland where I grew up and left to go to Art College when I was 18.

Work to view begins with a walk in the landscape taking photographs and quick sketches. In the studio I transpose and play with these forms to create structures for paintings. I then play with colour formations building up thin washes of paint to create congruous forms which gradually evolve into a thicker gestural application of paint. Colour is my main interest giving mood, tone and space to the work. Through hues of colour I hope to convey the dramatic felt experience of being in nature and the elements. This creates my landscape which I invite the viewer to enjoy.

I am privileged to be part of a vibrant group of artists working in this beautiful garden woodland setting. The experience to the visitor will be a friendly welcome one for art and nature lovers alike. You may care to extend your visit from the studios to Trewidden Gardens and Tearooms.
