Artist feels at home in her ‘sexy’ studio space in Leamington

Painter Diana Archer is one of a group of artists now showcasing her work at her new studio in Leamington.

Diana, who has has shows in both Europe and the USA over the years, will be displaying her new exhibition, Diana and Her Blue Nudes, at the volunteer and non-profit organisation Arts Trail Studios in Regent Court.

She said: “My studio space here is perfect for me, as an artist who wishes to develop my skills as a painter, and also promote my artwork,

“What could be better than having a studio with other artists in a stylish, ‘sexy’ space in the centre of Leamington which is also open to the public.

“Here I can have professional support in scanning, printing and framing of my original paintings, then exhibit these in the gallery with a view to selling them.

“I love the overall spacious arena, although my studio is at the rear, near the elegant cream settees, in the coffee table and art magazine area where you can chill out. The studio space is intimate where I can paint and exhibit my new series of paintings of blue female nudes in exotic Venetian settings.”

In 2011 Diana had a two-week solo show at Gallery 150 called From Venice to Alexandria and the paintings along the way.

It was through the exhibition that her work started to reveal a new direction and she later became the gallery’s artist in residence.
