Annual Awards 2024

And here we are for the 2024 awards. Once I’ve finished this post I’ll be up to date. With 2024 being the year that I frost used crystalline watercolour and soft pastels, the last two awards join the list and I have the full list of 17 awards to hand out. I have no plans to extend the range of awards but who knows what direction I’ll end up going in.

ChatGPT says “This evocative portrait of legendary guitarist Gary Moore captures the raw emotion and soul of blues music through masterful watercolor technique. The artist’s expressive brushwork and muted palette convey the intensity of Moore’s performance, immortalizing his passion and musical legacy.”
