StARTle Art Prize Award Ceremony

It was a real pleasure to be involved in this years' StARTle Art prize and to be shortlisted as a finalist was an honour. I came away not only with a bottle of bubbly but with new contacts whose work is diverse and highly creative. This is a great way of showcasing local talent and I'll definitely be at the opening night when the two winners exhibit their work, congrats to Trevor Barnard and Kathy Keefe!

Shortlisted for Art Prize!

I'm absolutely delighted to have been shortlisted for the StARTle Arts Prize at the Graham Clarke Gallery, Hazlitt Theatre, Maidstone UK. The prize is a solo show at the gallery.
Based on my application and submission of my abstract painting Torero the panel including last year's prize winner, James Allen, renown artist Graham Clarke (of whom the Graham Clarke Gallery is named!) and local artist and WOW magazine editor Emma Dewhurst will be interviewing me and the remaining shortlisted candidates shortly. Fingers crossed!
