New Year - New work

January is a time for planning ahead - for us at Staithes Studos a time for writing submissions for Art Fairs, making exhibition proposals, building on the lovely relationship we have with our current artists whilst introducing new artists to the gallery.
Here is a tiny taster of what is to come

Fabulous screen prints by superb printmaker Emma Lawrenson
 
A new artist for Staithes Studios Gallery in 2016 is Freya Stockford. We first met Freya last year and fell in love with her intelligent yet playful still lifes. After completing her Foundation Diploma at Central St Martins Freya moved to Glasgow to study Painting and Printmaking at the Glasgow School of Art. Unfortunately, in her final year and 4 hours before the degree deadline, the Glasgow School of Art set on fire, destroying her entire body of work. However, Freya was awarded the Phoenix Bursary Programme allowing her to work in Glasgow as a graduate artist for 6 months, developing her painting practice resulting in a super body of work.
Watch this space for further info about Freya's work at Staithes Studios.
We open our doors again on JAN 30th when we will be open weekends sat & Sun 11am - 5pm

New Arrivals

Enjoyed catching up with Laine Tomkinson this week and receiving this fabulous consignment of work - a great mix of painting and printmaking and such wonderful colour.
"When printing I take a highly improvisational approach, as a painter might. I fully respect happenstance and exploring all intuitive possibilities."
