I'm taking part in Norfolk and Norwich Open Studios again this year. We've been printing, stretching canvases, mounting, framing, hanging, printing cards, and mucking out some of the larger printing paraphernalia from the studio.
My studio was open last weekend, and again this weekend - Saturday 2nd, Sunday 3rd and Monday 4th June, from 11 am to 5 pm each day.. The details are on this link: http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Bruce-Cairns.ice?IArticle=7409
While you're in the area, I also recommend visits to some other excellent local artists. Pat Tinsley is also in Lammas (http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Pat-Tinsley.ice?IArticle=7539); and Ronald Durban is in Buxton (http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Ronald-Durban.ice?IArticle=7562) - both are well worth a visit. If you can get into Aylsham while you're in this area, also don't miss Kate Barclay's superb photography at The Black Sheep Shop (http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Kate-Barclay.ice?IArticle=7486). You will also be close to the Aldborough Creative - http://www.wix.com/clai76/aldboroughcreative2011
Even if you're not especially interested in my photography but you are interested in large format inkjet/giclee printing, please come along and see me during Open Studios to have a chat. Our monster printer is in the studio, as well as a lot of work that I have produced on it, including very large canvases as well as fine art prints. I'm happy to talk endlessly about printing, whether you're a photographer or a painter. You can find out more about my approach to printing here.
One of the images I've printed especially for Open Studios is a 24x20 inch limited edition print of the image below. This type of image looks wonderful when properly printed on the superb Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308 GSM cotton rag fine art paper.
For those of you who are artists also participating in Open Studios - good luck, and have fun! (It's hard work, isn't it?)
Into the studio now to do some hanging and organising. I hope to see you, if you can make it over the weekend!
