Received a nice letter from TAPC (The Artists’ Publishing Company Ltd – The Artist and Leisure Painter Magazines) to say that my submission: “An Old Cock in a Tree at Woodbridge” has been accepted in the Artist Category for the Patchings Art Centre, Barn Gallery, 2016 Exhibition.
This is wonderful news. I have entered this competition many times before and never been selected, so I shall award myself a few brownie points.
The exhibition is held at the Patchings Art Centre, Oxton Road, Calverton, Nottinghamshire NG14 6NU and will run from 9th June to 24th July 2016. The opening of the exhibition runs concurrently with the 23rd Patchings Art, Craft & Photography Festival from 9th to 12th June. The event attracts over 15,000 visitors and comprises over 150 renowned artists and crafts people demonstrating, exhibiting and selling their work.
The event “brings together the very best in fine art and craftsmanship and is one of the UK’s most celebrated art and craft festivals.”
I do hope you can get along to see the exhibition.
This is the painting:
