Annual Awards 2018

I was thinking ahead today to my year end hiatus and thinking that I really should end the year with an awards ceremony, choosing my best painting in a number of different subject/medium categories and finishing with a painting of the year. But I’m going do this properly by coming up with retrospective awards for previous years.

Let’s start with 2018. By the time we get to 2025, there will be 17 awards to give out but I wasn’t so diverse in 2018, so there will only be six.

Watercolour Painting Of The Year: Schilthorn

Landscape Of The Year: Schilthorn

Other Painting Of The Year: The Searchers

Crazy Painting Of The Year: The Searchers

Clunker Of The Year: Ugly Forest Path

Painting Of The Year: Schilthorn

ChatGPT says “Schilthorn. Awarded Painting of the Year 2018, celebrated for its serene depiction of snow-capped mountains rendered in delicate watercolour washes. The artist’s refined technique and subtle use of light and shadow convey the grandeur and stillness of alpine landscapes, capturing both their majesty and tranquility.”
