WINNER - 2020 JOHN COPES PORTRAIT PRIZE - BOWRAL ART GALLERY

It’s still sinking in that I just won the John Copes Portrait Prize at Bowral Art Gallery today. Huge congratulations to all the wonderful finalists and other prize winners! It was such a beautiful opening thanks to all the lovely Southern Highlands Community who came along and congratulated me. Big thanks to Black Parrot Art Framing who did an amazing and immaculate job with framing my work (and even delivering it to the gallery for me), what a team! And lastly, huge gratitude to judge Ben Quilty.

The John Copes Prize for Representational Art is becoming recognised as a leading are prize for representational work. It was instigated as a memorial to his father John, by Tim Copes.

The Prize attracts some of the finest representational artists throughout the state as well as other states across Australia.
