Inside The Lauren Rogers-Martin Studio: A Creative Escape in Whitstable
Whitstable has always had a way of pulling me in. There’s something about this town—the salty sea air, the rhythm of the waves, and the sense of ease that settles in as you wander its streets. It’s a place that allows creativity to breathe, where inspiration lingers in the light that shifts over the water.
Nestled in the heart of it all is The Lauren Rogers-Martin Studio, my creative space where art, nostalgia, and storytelling come together.
A Studio for Art & Storytelling in Whitstable
I didn’t just want to open a shop—I wanted to create an immersive art experience. A place where people could step in, slow down, and get lost in a painting. Every piece in my studio has a story behind it, whether it’s one of my original abstract paintings, limited-edition prints, or luxury home fragrances from Lola Darcy.
For those looking to buy art in Whitstable, my studio is the perfect place to find a unique painting or a meaningful gift. My work explores themes of love, time, and nostalgia, often incorporating textured layers, gold leaf, and deep color palettes to create an evocative, timeless feel.
There’s something incredibly special about seeing a person connect with a piece of art—watching as a certain painting, color, or texture resonates with something deep within them. That’s why I do this.
The Best Places to Eat & Drink in Whitstable

Samphire Restaurant – A Whitstable favorite for seasonal, locally sourced food. The menu changes frequently, but it’s always fresh and beautifully prepared. Perfect for a relaxed lunch after exploring the town’s art galleries and boutiques.
The Old Neptune (‘The Neppy’) – A historic beachside pub in Whitstable, right on the shingle. On a warm day, there’s nothing better than grabbing a drink by the sea and soaking in the atmosphere.
