I was delighted to learn that one of my submitted pictures “Sunrise” had received a prize at the 2026 D.A.G exhibition and turned up at the Preview evening to duly collect it.

I was somewhat blindsided by Sue the Chairperson when I was called to the stage again to be awarded the Edna Louden Award Rose Bowl for my services to art on the Wirral. I was absolutely delighted to receive the award which is for my part in setting up Wirral Urban sketchers and championing it for the past ten years.

Thank you D.A.G. !
