Open Studios-notes-St.Ives 2021





 
 
 

 Melissa Hampson.Smith I found by chance as I walked home. She lives just round the corner and had her work outside in the small front garden - safer because of covid.

Colin Orchard was also nearby and always uses a square format. Only recently has he started to paint St.Ives

Third visit turned out to be an unopened studio as Suzi Gutierez had gone to Penzance but her husband let me in to have a look and I admired her new press.


Interesting chats at all three places about art and galleries and memories.

On the way home, observation revved up, I took a photo of a disused phone box.
