Virtual Art Competition for Volunteers

Here are the results of the above competition, some truly talented work. The winning entries and all the exhibits are displayed below

So that all volunteers were free to enter judging was done by the lovely ladies who run the West End House Art Gallery in Smarden, who are both artist in their own right. They were delighted to be asked and have also generously offered a prize for the winning exhibit.

And the winner is ——

Kaara’s sketch of a bonded pair. A beautiful drawing of two rescued lurchers awaiting rehoming together.
