Thrilled and grateful to be named winner of the prestigious National Works on Paper (NWOP) $15,000 major acquisitive award, for my multi-paneled watercolour monotype Endurance 5.
The judges said: “Annika’s stunning work Endurance 5, saturated with gorgeous shades of ultramarine blue, captures the immersive majesty of the coastal landscape of Guerilla Bay. Imbued with personal memory, this powerful image slowly reveals a technical complexity embedded within its exquisite detail.”
