Oil on composition board. 70x100cm framed. I did this painting whilst in Covid 19 lockdown 2020. I began painting it soon after I was given the nine gorgeous sunflowers by my sister. I decided that it had to be large (almost life size) in order to keep me busy for the next few weeks. Indeed it did take weeks to complete, and by the time I had finished, the blooms were not as gorgeous as they once were. FOR SALE

I painted this quick (half hour or so) portrait using pens and watercolour from the zoomed live image of author Bernadine Evaristo. At another location she was also being painted by a previous finalist in the SkyArts Portrait Artist of the Year program. Because of the COVID 19 pandemic 2020 this program could not be held, so SkyArts set up a Portrait Artist of the Week with well known people as the models. I was amongst thousands of artists around the world who also painted Bernadine. So interesting to see many other artist’s interpretations.

The Constance Wu Award 2017

I was awarded this today jointly with Sue Jarvis, whose work I greatly admire.
Here is information about the award from the MSWPS website:

The Constance Wu Award was established by Carolyn Yong in memory of her mother, Constance Wu.
This award was first presented in 2012. It is presented to the artist receiving the most votes from MSWPS members whose works have been shown in the Annual Exhibitions.

This peer evaluated award was initially presented as The Mabel Pryde Prize and later as The MSWPS Award. MSWPS thanks Carolyn for this support.

In 2017 we have joint winners of this award.(Both artists will share the prize money.)

Elizabeth Moore Golding for ‘Lost in Thought’ and Sue Jarvis for ‘9am Swanston Street’. They will be presented with this award donated by Carolyn Yong in memory of her mother at the Christmas Lunch.

Congratulations to these members and thanks to the donors.
