In Dringhouses & Woodthorpe ward, there are Open Studios at the following locations:

  • 40. Caroline Lewis at 24 Hob Moor Terrace – Images of mainly Yorkshire inspired landscapes using collage, lino print and paint. Ghosts – images inspired by COVID19 and abandoned places using collage, transfer printing and paint.
  • 42. Angela Anning at 3 St Edwards Close – Highly textured art using wet felting and dry felting techniques to bond and sculpt natural materials: predominantly dyed silks, wools and cottons. Sometimes overlaid with hand or machine embroidery.
  • 43. Lucie Wake at 15 Slingsby Grove – Lucie captures the soul of her portrait subjects through her expressive use of delicious slabs of oil paint on canvas. It’s all about the eyes, they capture your attention.
  • 44. Pamela Thorby at 11 Middlethorpe Grove – Interstellar, fossil, microorganism or coral? Ceramicist Pamela Thorby makes stoneware porcelain sculptural vessels, imagined but reminiscent of a multiplicity of organic forms plus wheel thrown functional ceramics for the home.
  • 53 – Sarah King at 77 North Lane – Sarah uses a variety of soft pastel and pastel pencils on special paper and board, to create lifelike highly detailed portraits.
