Well, who'd have thought it :-)

I was thrilled to be commended at the Flourish Printmaking Award Ceremony tonight.

The winner was Sara Clark, with myself, June Russell and Moira McTague all being commended.

It feels like quite an achievement and it means a lot to me. Flourish was one of the things that inspired me to take up screen printing in the first place (to be specific, seeing Emma Lawrenson's solo show at Huddersfield Art Gallery). So to be a part of Flourish 2012 is really something special.
