Mark Walter and the studio move
First my apologies for the delay in posting, a lot has happened since the end of Artists Open Houses in June.
I am really excited to have taken over the former studio of the wonderful Jane Andrews in Portslade. The new studio gives me much more space to work and I'll be able to produce larger work again with ease. If you would like to visit please call me to arrange a time. The closest station is Portslade and there are lots of buses that go along Kingsway, the studio is just a couple of stops away from Hove Lagoon.
I recently visited Chrissy McLaughlan in Coventry and she has been producing some amazing work over the summer, check out her Instagram to see some.
I was in Hastings on 17 October to see the Barbarian Horde play at the Jenny Lind.
While there I went to the Hastings Contemporary, They currently have two shows and the first is Project Art Works: Ignition-The Exhibition. Ignition began as a residency and is now being exhibited in the main gallery space. During the last national lockdown, artists worked in the temporary studio while the building was closed to the public.
The second show is called Seaside Modern: Art and life on the beach. This exhibition ends 31 October. Curator James Russell takes a fresh look at the popularity of the British seaside in the first half of the 20th century. The exhibition includes work by Paul Nash, LS Lowry, Eileen Agar and Laura Knight.
Things are slow for me at the moment as I have broken my right arm. I'm still in the studio working though if you would like to arrange a studio visit in person, or an online tour.
