Incredible to hear that my watercolour monotype ‘Guerilla Bay 3’ has been selected as Winner of the 2021 Burnie Print Prize! I’m happy to know that this work will be enjoyed and cared for in the Burnie Regional Art Gallery collection and really appreciate the recognition and support of my practice. The exhibition includes work by so many artists I admire and is on display in Burnie, northwest Tasmania until May 1.
‘The Burnie Regional Art Gallery’s flagship exhibition and competition, the Burnie Print Prize celebrates the highest standards of printmaking in Australia and Oceania. As one of Australia’s richest and most prestigious printmaking awards, the competition underscores the importance of this arduous and exacting medium.’
