About this event
In 2023 I set up studio based in St Austell, to work as a full time artist exploring my surrounds, studying natural forms colours and textures.
I enjoy working on small runs experimenting on whatever feels right at the time. Most of my pieces are painted on wood panels using acrylics.
I sell original art, signed prints and cards.
As well as working from my home studio I have also been collaborating with owners of a 100 year old barge in Charlestown harbour creating pop up art exhibitions working along side other local artist and running workshops creating mix media pieces using driftwood and pottery beach finds. I have also been exploring the Victorian art of seaweed pressing and will be demonstrating and selling finished pieces during the open studio week.
Lady Daphne is a beautiful 100 year old barge moored in the amazing Charlestown harbour it has recently won the Marsh Volunteer Award 2023 by the National Historic Ships UK and featured on BBC spotlight. Sam and Andy host many arts and music events thought out the year making the perfect venue for this years open studio. 2023 also marked Lady Daphne’s 100th Birthday.
If your interested in viewing my art, watching a demonstration or taking part in one of my workshops we welcome you on board.
Lady Daphne has a full licensed bar onboard.
