Update: I heard today that my painting was given a Highly Commended. It’s a step forward from being a Finalist as I was last year. Need to keep painting! Thank you  The SAA . The painting will be up on the wall during Medway Open Studios & Arts Festival  and at Fishslab Gallery, #Whitstable before being packed off on its exciting trip to Nottingham the exhibition of the Finalists.    @supportingallartists @MedwayOpenStudios @maidstoneartsociety2
