To celebrate her Platinum Jubilee, we invited artists to paint anything you felt represented something positive about HM The Queen’s incredible 70-year reign.

We had some fantastic entries celebrating all things British.

The winners have been selected as Tim O'Brien, for his painting of The Platinum Party at The Palace, June 2022, and Sarah Bottjer for Jubilations (see the winning paintings below).

Tim and Sarah each receive over £100 worth of art papers from Clairefontaine, a Perfect Paper Stretcher from Ken Bromley and a Frazer-Price Brass Watercolour Box.

Many congratulations to the winners. Look out for the winning paintings and a selection of runners-up in the January 2023 issues of Leisure Painter and The Artist (published November 18, 2022).
