Don’t you just love lists? With just one day before the Opening party, I have a constant list of last minute things to do. The best part however is finishing the hanging of the work. The majority is hung in the skylit studio and another portion is hung in the garage for the duration of the Open. Then there is the ‘on the easle’ room where I get messy. I have roughly divided it into Seascapes in the garage and Autumn trees and local sites in the skylit gallery. The Open runs from 26 May – 10 June and I am opening weekends and Wednesdays during that time. My pad is located 6 houses on the right after the White Horse Pub, Upton Norfolk. There is a link to the NNOS12 website here and my website here.

Check out the NNOS12 website for Artist trail information. I am included in an East Norfolk and the Broads route, the trails are always very popular. The routes are circular so you can begin your trail at any point. If you want to make a shortstay visit and tour all the studios, you could try the Self-catering accommodation in Upton, a lovely self-contained unit. Elm Lodge.
