What inspired you to take part in the Chichester Open Studios Art Trail 2025?
Louise Duggan
As both an artist and mentor, I love connecting with people through my work. The Art Trail is a fantastic opportunity to invite visitors into my creative space, share my process, and inspire others—whether they’re fellow artists or simply passionate about art.

What do you enjoy most about sharing your work with the public?
Louise Duggan
Art is a conversation, and opening my studio allows me to engage directly with people’s reactions, questions, and interpretations. Seeing my work through fresh eyes often sparks new ideas and reminds me why I create.
