Keith Judge

"Although I was born in London, I have spent most of my life living and working in East Anglia. I originally studied painting and illustration at Colchester School of Art before going on to do Photography and Film at the Royal College of Art. After a career in the Film and TV industry, I returned to painting full time which had always been my main passion. Like many East Anglian artists, I became inspired by the unique and challenging qualities of the Norfolk and Suffolk coastlines. In particular Covehithe beach, and the cliffs at Happisburgh and Holkham beach in Norfolk."

Keith will be exhibiting his work in Gallery 2 from Saturday 26th June to Sunday 11th July, open Wednesday to Sunday, 11am to 4pm.

Rosemary Elliott will be exhibiting a retrospective series of her paintings and prints in studio 4 as part of the September Harleston and Waveney Art Trail Open Studios this year.  The exhibition will include her latest contemporary landscapes inspired by the rapid changes of light in coastal locations of East Anglia. www.rosemaryelliott.co.uk

There will be a guide map on display showing all the artists’ studios from Bungay to Brockdish enabling visitors to plan their journeys. Dog walkers and cyclists are most welcome on site and parking is free in Low Road, adjacent to the Barns.  Accessible parking is also available on site.

Refreshments and meals can be found at The Good, Bad and Hungry cafe in Vicarage Road, Wingfield, and the De La Pole Arms opposite St Andrew’s Church, Church Road.
