By Phillip Worth (FPS President) The Open Studios movement has been a welcome development in the art world in recent years. Typically based on specific areas, be they counties, cities, districts or whatever, it involves artists inviting members of the public to visit their studios, to meet and talk with them, and to view their output. And it is always an added attraction if they can see artists at work. The area of West Sussex centred on Chichester has a particularly lively tradition, and is rich in creative talent, as the writer discovered on a recent visit. The occasion for this was to renew acquaintance with Max Birne, a former FPS personality, who has recently moved house from Wembley, where he had lived for many years, to Selsey, near Eric Coates’s ‘Sleepy Lagoon’. After the move Max lost no time in building himself a conservatory/studio at the rear of his bungalow and it was here that he entertained visitors during ‘Open Doors 2008’, a mandatory stop on the Chichester ‘Stud...

  Hello Art Lover, You are invited to Open Studio at  3 The Valley, Whitwell, SG4 8BN 12 - 14 September 12-6pm Please visit and help me warm my new studio!  I am finally settled in and creating. I left Blue Door Studio in November 2023. I couldn't have imagined, nor predicted, how disruptive the move would be for my work and creative flow. With much luck and the love and support of incredible friends who have given me hours of their time, muscles and expertise in practical and emotional support  - the studio is up and I am working in it! Getting back into flow, connection and a sense of purpose with painting is a bit of an ongoing process. I feel increasingly settled in. The new studio is the polar opposite of Blue Door Studio. Where the old studio was utilitarian with a concrete floor and one chair, that was normally covered in something because I sat down so rarely, the new studio is gentle, friendly and beautiful. It has an armchair gifted by my lovely neighbour B...
