“I am advocate of positive people cultures within community settings. On this Island we are privileged to have so many talented creative people. No more so than our studio artists. I really admire those that participate and I’m proud to encourage artistic freedom of expression and collaboration through the formation of our Isle of Wight Open Studios Community Interest Company.”
