I am thrilled that my painting “Pink Summer” has been selected as a finalist in the Walker & Hall Waiheke Art Award 2021. This is a national award for two dimensional works in any medium and has a prize of $5000 as the Premier award.
This year there were 110 entries from all parts of New Zealand with 31 selected for exhibition. The Selector and Judge this year is Fiona Blanchard, arts educator and Head of Visitor Services at the Auckland War Memorial Museum Tāmaki Paenga Hira.
