Site Festival Open Studios Event June 2011 - Painswick Studio

Painswick Centre Studio, Painswick, Gloucestershire

West Country Galleries paid a visit to the Painswick Centre Studio to see the Site Festival Open Studio Event which was featured on 11th-12 June and again on 18th-19th June.  During our visit we met up with renowned artist Ange Mullen Bryan. 

Ange told us that her Painswick Centre Studio is open all year round; so visitors can come in any time. Artists all over the Stroud Valleys open their doors and let the public in for this very popular arts festival. 

Ange shares her studio with five other artists.  Whilst browsing through the gallery, we came across an impressive large canvas entitled "Farther to Fall". Angle admits that she prefers to paint scandinavian landscapes and is not comfortable painting her home surroundings.
