The People's Choice Award 2024 Winner. ‘Driving Home’ won The People's Choice Award 2024, The British Art Prize, Artists & Illustrators magazine. Initially it reached the top 50 finalists and people were asked to vote for their favourite painting. This award allows the public to make their voices heard by voting for their favourite work from the competition’s impressive shortlist.
It’s a little different to my usual beautiful Cornish landscapes, but arguably, still beautiful. I’m currently exploring how natural and man-made light can transform a landscape when the sun goes down. ‘Driving Home’ encapsulates something of the normal everyday alongside the magnificent starry sky, showing how an ordinary scene is beautiful if we look at it in the right way. The location is the Texaco garage just off The Gannel as you drive into Newquay, so it really is also my drive home.
