Northern Beaches Gallery - Summer Art Prize
I was honoured and dumbfounded to have won first place in the 2024 Northern Beaches Gallery Summer Art Prize with my impasto oil painting “Swirling solitude”.
Enormous thanks to the judges , to the many well wishers and to Wayne and crew at Northern beaches Gallery. I am pretty chuffed :-)
The exhibition runs from 2nd to 30th November 2024 at 5/161 South Creek Road in Cromer, NSW.
Take a look at some photos from the exhibition.
The prize includes a solo show with the gallery, so I look forward to sending out information in the new year.
