Lesley is showing at Venue 94, PICA Studios, York, YO1 7HU 

Lesley will be taking part in this year’s York Open Studios alongside five other PICA Studios artists: Sarah Jackson, Evie Leach, Lu Mason, Katrina Mansfield and Ealish Wilson, all at Venue 94, so well worth a visit. PICA Studios is an 18th century print works in the centre of York, where the artists make their work, including jewellery, printmaking, mixed media and textiles. Pop in, have a nosy, see where it all goes on and have a chat with the artists themselves.

If you’re interested in a printmaking or drawing workshop, Lesley will be on hand to explain a bit more and you may be able to book yourself a place while you’re there.

Beat the rush…

The PICA Studios artists will be holding a Preview Evening at PICA Studios, 7a Grape Lane, York, YO1 7HU on Friday 12th April at 6pm -9pm.

You’ll find Lesley and other selected PICA artists browsing around and happy to chat at the Preview. Prosecco and soft drinks on offer. Indoor studios and outdoor courtyard. It’s a public event, so do feel free to call in.

Here is a little taster of two new pieces of Lesley’s below. All new work will be available to see and buy in person at York Open Studios. Brand new work has not yet been added to her website, so get in early and buy directly from Lesley.

Below is a taste of the six artists’ work at Venue 94.

And of course, there are many other artists and venues to visit, all listed on the York Open Studios website and in the yellow directories circulated around York. More details on all the artists can be found in the directories, and both online and handheld versions include a useful map to plan your route/visits. Enjoy!
