Now based in Dorset, her paintings are inspired by the landscapes, coast and everyday details around her, with colour, texture and brushwork doing much of the storytelling. “I love Dorset, the hills and the sea, so much to enjoy, so much to paint.”🌱 Fran’s work is now on display at Crossroads Café throughout August and September.

Our winning...

SENIOR UNDER 18 14-17 CATEROGY WINNER…OLIVIA L!🎉🎉 A huge congratulations to Olivia, who has won the Senior artist category! Her bedazzled painting is so striking, demonstrating creativity in medium and depiction. Judged by Lizzie Mehta, AiP team member and After School Kids Club coordinator, she notes: “Wow! This one made me lean in to make sure I could see every little bit. This collage painting is incredible. The petals have an almost feather-like quality, lifting the darkness of the colours chosen. The little rhinestones and other shaped beads also add a whimsical element. A very unusual treatment of the subject matter. Amazing!“ Olivia is awarded £50 cash, kindly sponsored by Poundbury Rotary Club, and 36 greeting cards sponsored by @art2cardprinting Well done Olivia! 🎉⭐️🐝🌻

SENIOR UNDER 18 ART COMPETITION RUNNER UP…INDI B! ⭐️🎉 We are delighted to announce that Indi B is Runner Up in the Senior 14-17 artist category! Her attention to perspective displays true artistic talent. Judged by Lizzie Mehta, AiP team member and After School Kids Club coordinator, she noted: “What a beautiful, uplifting painting! So bright and sunny, with a lightness of touch in the drawing. I could walk right into those sunflowers and feel the sun on my face! Fantastic sweeps of colour that work as a wonderful background to the detail of each sunflower plant. The perspective of the parasol and it’s shadow are really accomplished. Fabulous!” Indi is awarded £15 kindly sponsored by The Poundbury Rotary Club, and 36 greeting cards sponsored by @art2cardprinting Well done Indi! ⭐️🌟🎨🌻
