Art-House-Life is an established contemporary art studio for our family of five artists, each with our own style of painting, drawing, print, ceramics, sculpture, digital and installation art.
Our heritage working space at Osborne Stable Block on the Isle of Wight is an oasis of creativity which we love to share via studio workshops and events, collaborating with partner organisations and local communities.
Our Poet in Residence for 2026-27 is Maggie Sawkins.
