Going Green Art Competition

I’m so very excited/nervous/pleased to be an entrant in the Drawing Point’s Going Green Competition!

The competition is open to only 25 artists and we had to interpret the theme of the comp, being provided with only a 60x60cm canvas and a tube of Atelier Interactive Permanent Green Light (Series 2).
First hurdle – the sheer SIZE of the canvas. This is the biggest area I’ve covered to date and man, was it intimidating!!
Second hurdle – incorporating the theme and colour. Most of my work is really spontaneous, so to have a couple of criteria was challenging. I decided to combine the concept of a “green/eco” type girl with the colour as a support feature. I reckon I pulled it off 😉

I have certainly RISEN to the occasion – in keeping with my “word” for this year!
Opening Night jitters are already starting! Here are the details if you want to have a look:
