A keen landscape painter, in 2002 Stephen moved to the conservation area of Walkern in Hertfordshire to enjoy the inspiration of local scenery and to open his studio. Friends and local professional artists soon became involved in the venture and, to date, over 60 artists have exhibited their work to form what is, without doubt, an exciting and varied show of talented creativity. The Gallery is generally open on Wednesday, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 10.00 am to 5.00 pm or at other times by appointment. We are closed Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. As this is a working studio it is always advisable though to confirm in advance whether the gallery is open or not before making a special journey.
Situated in the conservation village of Walkern in Hertfordshire, Walkern Gallery exhibits a large selection of both fine and contemporary works by leading local and professional artists, with works in oils, acrylics and watercolours. We also exhibit a good selection of sculpture with works in wood as well as cold cast items and bronze works. Lovers of glass or ceramics will not be disappointed either with a selection of blown glass, hanging glass and ceramic works as well as stoneware and thrown pottery usually being exhibited.
