Spring Fling // Hometown // Dumfries & Galloway // Open Artists Studio's Event

The Spring Fling is a Visual Art & Craft open studio event held in dumfries and galloway, Scotland (my home) each year.  The event see's approximately 90 artists studio's open for visitors and this year there are some really exciting projects going on.  Collaborations between artists and muralists cropping up in rural places on old buildings makes for a really interesting scene.

I am looking forward to heading home to get involved in the Spring Fling after submission and visiting some of the artists, crafters and makers studio's.  This is really relevant to my practice as I love craft and would like to try and pursue a career which is craft and illustration based.

A video from the website about the collaboration murals.  It is so exciting to see something like this back home and to see that contemporary art & craft has a place in the countryside as well as the cities.
