And yes, there are a few mugs and bowls as well, all with a watery theme.”
Lesley Warner is based at the Old Parcels Office, rear of Scarborough Railway Station Car Park, off Westborough, Scarborough.
Two other artists: Kane Cunningham, landscape painter, and Jacqui Barrowcliffe, installation artist, are also opening their doors at the Old Parcels Office as part of North Yorkshire Open Studio in the first two weekends in June.
“Look out for the bright yellow signs for Open Studios which will be cropping up all over the area this weekend and next,” said Lesley ..
