Festival choice winner at Buxton Spa Prize

Great to enter this Plein air competition again. I’ve entered every year since it started, and have been awarded highly commended and festival choice several times – and just as exciting to win it on this occasion, for ‘Never Grey on Market Day’ ! I always enjoy the challenge of it – and this year was particularly tricky trying to find a day of decent weather! In the end I worked in between showers, then finished off back in the studio.

The exhibition is in till the end of July at the Green Man gallery in Buxton – go see, and if you do, you can vote for your favourite painting!
