Our next sneak peek is the artist Ed O’Donnelly, based in Lochranza. Ed’s paintings explore the relationship between people and place as well as themes associated with natural patterns, transitions and cycles, informed by the cultural history and environment of the Atlantic edge.
Lesley Lockhart @lelloc09 painted this wee beauty.
Lesley paints mainly decorative still life paintings in Acrylic and mixed media. Beautiful pattern and texture.

ARRAN OPEN STUDIOS 10 YEARS
As some of you will know, it is 10 years this year since our event began in 2012. We thought you might like to look back at our original brochure from that time.
We had 24 participants that year, 12 are still with us 10 years on. We have 38 studios opening up to the public in this year’s event , which is fantastic.
Here’s to another 10 years!
Thanks go to Josephine Broekhuizen and Sarah Cook for creating our event and to the great committee of volunteers who organise our event each year.

Introducing Simon Lawrence , once again to our event. Simon’s motifs include animals, birds, boats and more recently, responses to the Isle of Arran.

A sneak peek of the work of Josephine Broekhuizen, Oil paintings and screen prints on the theme of landscapes and flowers and plants. Josephine's paintings are rarely exact representations, but her interpretation of what she is drawing or painting.
It’s great that we have Andy Leese joining us again after taking a break from open studios for a few years. Andy makes handcrafted hardwood furniture inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement and Charles Rennie Mackintosh. His studio is situated in Machrie.
More details on studio numbers etc coming soon.

I’m excited and proud to be taking part in my fourth Arran Open Studios
This year I’ll be holding it in my new Garden Studio in Kingscross
My artwork is a bit unusual in which it’s all hand cut from paper with my trusty scalpel! They are from a single layer silhouette cut, incorporating one of my own watercolour backgrounds, upto 12 layer pictures all cut by hand!
It’s such a privilege to see and meet all the islanders and the visitors alike at the Open Studio’s event every year, that I really look forward to taking part.
