Open Studio Announcement
24th May - 7th June
I am very much looking forward to doing open studios for the first time and welcoming people into the space I work in.
My large studio is the starting point for many of my still life paintings. It’s always interesting to see where an artist works. Some people need a chaotic space to be creative in, some very tidy surroundings. Over the years I have collected many things to paint so my studio is a bit chaotic! My paintings are about the intimacy of where I live and the objects I love.
This book of paintings by Alice Mumford and poems by Sue Leigh, celebrates the intimacy and beauty that can be found in our everyday lives, bringing together exciting new work from two makers in which art and language sit side by side, each illuminating the other.

Her objects have at one in the same time a prosaic and a dramatic nature, and symbolise the presence of human beings and the mystery of their daily lives. She has instilled an English flavour into the still life tradition and, in her profound understanding and joyful handling of oil paint, can be likened to Winifred Nicholson and the School of St Ives.
