Congratulations to our artist Emma Haworth for coming first in The Sunday Times watercolour competition. This years judges included the surveyor of the Queen's pictures, Desmond Shawe-Taylor, Dr Kim Sloan, from the British Museum; and the artist Lucy Jones. To quote The Sunday Times art critic and judge of the competition Frank Whitford ‘The rigorous structure recalls late-medieval, early-Renaissance composition - think of Piero di Cosimo, for instance – although I am also reminded of Bruegel’s Hunters in the Snow. High praise, but not excessive, I think’. Emma won the award for her painting "Snowy Woods".
