Wirral Open Studios Toure

Wirral 24-25 September 2011 http://wirralopenstudiotour.blogspot.com/

Istra is one of the 38 contributors to this regional art event. This year Istra will be showing her leaded glass art work at the beautiful St Luke's church in Hoylake, Wirral U.K.
Istra is recognised for her creative diversity and interchangeable use of all art forms in her painting and glass work alike. In pieces shown here she uses fused glass and drawings in work that explores her personal and deep felt experiences of places and people in her life. She will also demonstrate making of a panel.
After graduating in art and design from Glyndwr University in Wales and after a long academic career as a psychologist Istra works and leads creative community projects in U.K. and Croatia. She is an international exhibitor. Her studio and gallery are in Croatia where she spends a part of the year working as an independent artist. This year Nina Dragan-Belić an artist from Studio Valeria in Medulin, Croatia will appear as a guest exhibitor with one painting titled 'Beach at West Kirby'.
