BUCKS OPEN STUDIOS: IT'S A VIBRANT ART ATTACK FOR THE REGION

Don't forget to check in with participants from this year's Bucks Open Studios event this week coming.

There is no shortage of participants to choose from; This year's show is the biggest to date, with a record number of entries from artists and makers across the country wanting to share their creativity with the wider public.

Ceramicists, photographers, painters, print makers and glass workers are among those opening the doors to their work spaces and offering free demos, exhibitions and workshops.

In Milton Keynes, Naomi Lutman will be showing her pet portraits, fantasy creatures and vibrant animal paintings from her working studio in Wolverton (51 Buckingham Street).

Her works in progress will be displayed along with pieces for sale and she will be giving practical demos.

Parking is free in The Square, and for more on Naomi's work check in at naomilutman.blogspot.co.uk

> At Vitreus Art, a gallery just off the A5 near Potterspury, four creative heads have come together to deliver a joint exhibition.

Jenny Timms and Mike Caddy are the minds behind Vitreus, and they have brought together watercolour worker Louise Thomas, and pen and ink worker Soraya Billimoria to show with Mike and Jenny's stained glass and fused glass making.

At least one of the artists will be present each day for the duration of Open Studios, which rolls to June 26.
