As an emerging artist, my work continues way beyond the studio and I have been working hard behind the scenes to raise my profile and become more widely known, including entering open calls and competitions and looking for other other publicity opportunities.
I am delighted to confirm two prestigious recent award nominations:
- Longlisted for the Visual Art Open Award 2023
- Longlisted for the Visual Artist’s Association Professional Artist Award 2023
- Honourable Mention in the prestigious Artist of the Month Competition at Influx Gallery.
