Well done to the winners of the first Gallery & Barrow art competition “Bonny Botanical”. We were blown away by the high standard of entries and thank everyone for entering the competition. We currently have six winning pictures up in the gallery so if you’re passing do pop in and take a look

"New Beginnings” - Encaustic wax painting by Lynne Miller
This lovely entry came in a pair by Lynne Miller all the way from North Carolina. The coloured wax has been used to create these beautiful floral designs in a charming way and the finish almost looks like a ceramic tile. We just love them!

"Siam Tulip”. Collage by Penny Brown

"Blue Hydrangea”. Watercolour by Susan Thomson

“Desiccated Tulip”. Watercolour by Julia Trickey

“Chinese Lanterns”. Drawing by Christine Lawes
Some of the artists who entered the competition are professional botanical artists and it was a delight to see the variety of styles and methods used.
