Simply..Open.....

I'm enjoying having the studio open every weekend and we've already had some visitors and some sales. We're on a very quiet single track road and I have not advertised yet - apart from a mention here on the blog.

I'm so glad I did mention it as if I hadn't I might not have had the fun of meeting Viv from Where The Journey Takes Me. She and her husband visited the studio last week and we chatted as if we had known each other for years (which in a way we had!) We had a really lovely afternoon.

I really like my slightly quirky sign, but a group of young girls passed and one of them read it out as she approached. 'Open - Studi - O' she said, then 'Oh that's so annoying!'

Well, you can't please all of the people....

Paintings large and small, oils and watercolours, cards and collages with prices from £30 to £800.

Should you be round this way do join me for a coffee and have a browse - no obligation!

For details of how to find me see under Studio below the banner photograph.

I look forward to meeting you.

I think your paintings are beautiful Freda and I love the quirky sign! It's so true you can't please everybody though. I was selling some work yesterday too and had some lovely customers in the morning and then a woman came along in the afternoon and told me she 'wouldn't pay that for that muck'. I don't expect everybody to like my work but I'm always surprised that a handful of people feel that it's ok to be so openly rude. A thick skin is required it seems when selling publicly! Hope you have some more nice visitors today.

Freda - Before I get to excited, do you ship to the U.S.? I do so enjoy your work. The photos you feature on your blog at times take my breath away.

It must have been fun to meet Viv and her husband. I'm glad you are having success with your open studios. I also love visiting artists in their studios. Your visitors will also be able to appreciate the scenery which gives you so much inspiration too! Sarah x
