Just thought I’d share that my Puffins painting has been longlisted for this year’s Sketch for Survival competition.  Judging for the final 100 takes place at the end of August and these will then be included in their exhibition and online auction later in the year when all sales money will go towards their conservation work.  Any longlisted not chosen for exhibition will be offered for sale on their exhibition tour and online shop.  Fingers crossed! It’s a worthwhile cause, and I see another POL member, Anjana Cawdell, also has a painting longlisted.

Thank you, Marjorie, Alan, Robert and Paul.  Anjana and I have both been finalists in the past, so hoping for a good result this time.  Either way, it’s enjoyable just taking part.
