While art has been a sanctuary for many people during the pandemic, it has also been a very uninspiring time for a lot of artists, with so many events postponed.
That's why NNAC decided to have an online competition for members to submit work completed during 2020 when lockdown and other restrictions meant there were few opportunities to show their work.
The competition was well received by members and there were some excellent entries.
The competition was judged by John Allen who said “Judging has been a difficult task, particularly choosing an outright winner, as all the work has merit and is varied in technique, style and medium.”
Below is the winner announcement and a slideshow of John's highly commended works.
