3or 4 of us are planning to take part in the Dulwich Open Studios this coming May (1st weekend only) and would really appreciate and feedback from other local artists who have taken part in open studios in /around Dulwich the past. We have quite a wide range of styles between us ranging from quite small, graphic still lives through to large abstract paintings and photography.

It would be great to hear what sort of themes and sizes of art works are most popular - and price ranges?

We showed music photography a couple of years ago and had a lot of visitors and several quite high priced sales.

Prints were limited and around A3 in size, framed.

It helped that we had a website listed in the booklet so people could see what was going to be on show. We also publicised it via social media prior to the weekends when it was open. We always made time to chat to anyone who wanted to find out more but did not pester people who just wanted to browse. I'm always surprised by how many artists/hosts do not seem to show any interest in their visitors and continue chatting to their friends!

Hope that helps and that you also get some replies from painters, as it sounds like that is what you specialise in.

      Stephen Viccary - Bathroom installation

      By Ergo_mark · Posted

      Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145

      Dulwich Eco Gardening - Professional Landscape Gardening / Design

      By AylwardS · Posted

      Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
