Open Studios

What will you see in the 'Open Studios'?

7 Lucy Lane - Loughton

Julienne and Valerie welcome visitors to their pop-up studio at 7 Lucy Lane to view their collection of new work inspired by nature, diverse cultures and the passage of time. From vibrant colours that sing to tactile Saori weaving, prepare to be inspired.

Julienne is planning to exhibit her extensive collection of 2015 Journal Quilts inspired by the fossil record, a pair of contemporary wall quilts based on magnolias, a pictorial quilt depicting magpies and a memory quilt that she made for her late mother, as well as a series of woven Saori banners, circle weavings depicting Elements and Seasons and an ongoing mixed media art project that explores the theme ‘Moth and Rust’. Weaving on a Saori loom will be demonstrated, and there will be an opportunity to contribute to a woven community banner that will be raffled at the close of the festival in aid of All Saints’ Church.

Studio on the Green - Loughton

The Studio on the Green is an award winning building, in which Pam & John Walker make their own ceramics and artwork. It is a working pottery with some items for sale.

Their ceramic work divides into two types: work thrown on the wheel by John and handmade figurative work by Pam. Each has a range of styles which is constantly evolving.

Artwork is mainly watercolour paintings of people, animals and landscapes, including many inspired by visits to Africa, where Pam was born.
