Just won Menena Joy Schwabe Memorial Award for An Outstanding Oil Painter at the ROI, London

Back from London again having been to the Preview of the Royal Institute Of Oil Painters Exhibition at the Mall Galleries where, quite unexpectedly and quite amazingly my two paintings won The Menena Joy Schwabe Memorial Prize 2014 for the most Outstanding Painter in Oils in the Exhibition.

Considering this exhibition represents some of the top national and international artists from all over the country I feel especially thrilled, particularly whilst it recognises the uniqueness of my painting and not me. Still pinching myself. Wow.
