Premier Award Darfield Art Week, 2018​ 

Pennies from Heaven
$2000 Premier Award
The judge's comments:  Slightly surreal dreamscape, mad-hatters tea party about to slide off the canvas.  Unusual perspective and deliberately jarring elements in the composition make the work slightly uncomfortable, yet the sumptuous feast on the table tells a story of conviviality and homeliness.  The story behind this work is ultimately what captivated me and kept me coming back to try to figure it all out.  Both comforting and disconcerting at the same time, a work that might polarise an audience and generate robust discussion as all good art should do.
