11th October: Open and People & Portraits Print Competitions, judged by Paul Burwood LRPS CAPGB QPSA BEP3*

Last night we presented Paul Burwood with a very select selection of both People/Portrait prints and Open subjects, i.e. everything/anything other than people.  Paul’s critiques were thoughtful, inciteful and helpful and we were given an opportunity, post results, for a question and answer session with the print makers.

People & Portraits:

Many congratulations to Sanjay Mistry for his winning portrait of ‘#Tag Brenden’;  Peter Polkinghorne’s ‘A World of Her Own’ was second and Judy Buckley-Sharp’s ‘Francesca’ third.  Judith Gimber’s ‘Finlay’ was highly commended and in his first print competition new member YC Wei’s ‘Taking Part in the Marathon’ was commended.
