This is the first article about local people who live in our area. Rue Stanley used to be Chair of our Residents Association but is also an accomplished artist.
She had always been interested in art, taking ‘O’ level art at school, and painting for leisure when time permitted. But it wasn’t until she retired that she started to take art seriously organising a painting group at her home.
She then started exhibiting at the Denbies Winery in Dorking and has been displaying her works there since 2018. Using bright and textural acrylic paint, her paintings are very eye-catching and colourful. This has led to sales throughout the South-East and to tourists from as far away as Australia and America.
Her studio in Tattenham Crescent will be open for visitors on the 10th, 17th, and 24th October from 11 am to 5pm. All visitors are welcome, and an appointment is not necessary.
The full address is – Cherrycroft, Tattenham Crescent Epsom Downs KT18 5NR. It is opposite 101 Tattenham Crescent and next door to Downswood Lawn Tennis Club. Visit her website at: www.ruestanleyart.com
