It’ll be interesting to visit an Open Studios event in France! This one has been going since 2019 and is in a large village. 120 artists exhibiting. It looks amazing!

A week ago there was a book launch at the wonderful Arts Centre in Stornoway - An Lanntair. After 18months of work it was great to share the book. Find it at An Lanntair, in bookshops, online or contact me via my website for a signed copy.
