I am happy to announce that I’m taking part in the Devon Open Studios event this year. Organised by the Devon Artist Network, this is a great opportunity for art lovers to visit and meet artists making a huge variety of artworks and practises in their own studios or in group Venues. There are painters, printmakers, designers sculptors, potters, jewellers and more.

Artists at Outlines Open Studio Venue 6

Christina Bonnett in StudioChristina Bonnett  is showing paintings and prints and examples of painted furniture. Currently working on different ways of using Acrylic paints.

 

Christophe Szpajdel in Studio -doa-2018Also participating in the open studios is Christophe Szpajdel, known as ‘The Lord of the Logos’. His opening times are also as above. If you wish to confirm that he will be here when you visit you can contact him here:

Christophe does not have a studio suitable for opening to the public so I offered to share mine. Has has a lot of work to show, and constantly makes more so we made extra display screens and cleared the decks for his use.

Artists can have an anxious time on the run-up to open events. We all want to show our work and the process of making it, if we can. Christophe is no exception and he has to come all the way from Exeter, where he lives, to bring his work and art materials, set it up and to be here on the open days.

In spite of the distance, he says he is happy to be here and delights in all the surrounding countryside has to offer. Trees and nature influence much of his work and there we find a connection between our very different types of art.

  1. Thank you for the opportunity to see your varied range of work. The demo of painting techniques was very illuminating. An interesting juxtaposition with the Lord of Logos

    • Thank you Martin for visiting the studio and joining in with such enthusiasm.
      It was a pleasure to show you different ways of using the paint. You are an adventurous painter! Your willingness to try all the techniques made for a lot of fun.

      I was surprised to discover you had never used acrylics before and were more accustomed to watercolour.
      I look forward to seeing more of your work.
