I’m so excited to share that, from the end of this month, you’ll be able to visit my studio, tucked just behind Emma’s shop at @popdoune.art! Not only that, but I will have a little shop!
Emma and I have been getting everything ready, and the animals are lining up for their big debut. I will be officially opening ‘When Beasts Spoke: The Studio Shop’ doors on Saturday 31 October, and can’t wait to celebrate this new little venture with you.
Put the date in your diary and keep an eye out for more details about our opening day. I’ll be sharing little glimpses of all the prep over the next few weeks. We can’t wait to welcome you in! ✨

My little shop corner in our studio for Open Studios Stirlingshire. All ready for a rummage through, lots of bargains, originals, prints and other bits and bobs… 10% of all profits going to Strathcarron Hospice, and a ‘perfectly imperfect’ section of ex-display and end of line products that you can pay what you’d like and all the money from that will go to @strathcarronhospice too 💙
Venue 27 of Open Studios Stirlingshire 🧡

ONE WEEK LEFT! Promoting the exhibition on social media and getting creative with posts has been great fun, but I wouldn’t say I’m a natural for pieces to camera!🤣 To mark the final week of my ‘When Beasts Spoke’ exhibition I wanted to share a highly professional video 😂🫣🤭
Thank you to my fabulous curator, for her patience, ability to keep a straight face while I can’t stop giggling and telling me I look good so I don’t freak out having a camera pointed at me 🥰
‘When Beasts Spoke’ is on for one more week (until 10th May). Make my attempts at promotional videos worth the embarrassment and go see my work while it is up! at @madeinstirlingstore ☺️💛

[Charlotte Strawbridge @DearUniverse_cs]

All ready for the first weekend of palette knife workshops! Painting flowers tomorrow and it’s looking beautiful.
Still space on this Sunday’s and next Sunday’s animal workshops, if you’d like to join us 💛

It’s World Curlew Day 🤍
A perfect moment to celebrate one of our most iconic beauties (and one of our most rapidly declining breeding bird species).
If you’re not already following @CurlewAction @RSPBScotland @_BTO , today’s the day to start 🐦
