I was extremely proud to be awarded the 2022 Evelyn Chapman Award with my painting ‘Homesick’ one of the two works considered for the prize. The Evelyn Chapman Art Award is a $50,000 scholarship is presented to an Australian painter, male or female under 45. The Award, given every two years, is intended to support a young Australian painter by furthering their art education both in knowledge and artistic practice internationally or in Australia. I intend to study the interior and exterior of culturally important buildings, so far I have a Power Station, a jail and a beautiful historic library in the pipeline so please watch this space!
