The Studios have been sending hand crafted cards to their growing list of commissioners and customers for the past six years. This year they are offering these limited edition, lino prints to purchase online.

Alternatively, for those who love to brave the dramatic Dungeness winds, they will be for sale at the Open Studios from now until Monday January 9, 2012.

Paddy Hamilton commented: "We always send our past and present customers a card and we also like to offer a special Christmas print, in the tradition of spreading some seasonal cheer.

" These prints are being offered at a fraction of the normal price that we would ask for a print of this size and quality."

Dungeness Open Studios will be open on Boxing Day for anyone who is heading to the beach.

Visitors to Dungeness are welcome to drop in to view the paintings and limited edition prints, or they can be viewed and purchased online.

The Studios are open most clement days during the winter from 10 am until Dusk.

Dungeness Open Studios - How we work....

Two beautiful fine art open studios in the shadow of the black lighthouse on beach at Dungeness in Kent UK.

All paintings, prints and drawings on show are made to a high standard finish in a third studio to the right of Studio 2 and completed over a short period of time in early morning sessions in these two buildings.

Studio 1 is used as a 'clean space' for colouring and assessing relief prints.

Studio 2 is used as a showing space for new projects or as a viewing space for individual works seen online.

As soon as paintings, prints or drawings are more or less completed they are previewed here prior to purchase or further exhibition.

We do not consider these spaces to be a 'gallery' as such- more a public extension of a continuing working practice enabling the preview of work in a bright, clean and organised environment.
