The latest update from all things DegreeArt.com
NEWS:
The Signature Photography Awards -
We are hosting our very own, first student and recent graduate photography award exhibition in May this year - the Signature Photography Awards. It may seem like a long way off, but the call for submissions is now out. We have a distinguished panel of judges including representatives from the AOP, TheTimes and Magnum Photos. For more details and to enter click here.
Our very own Lorna Wadsworth was interviewed on BBC radio early in January and to her suprise the interviewer had a former sitter of hers - MP Michael Howard waiting on the line to greet her.
As some of you know Lorna recently painted Michael Howard's portrait but was taken aback to learn that Westminster rejected the painting as the Right Honourable Gentleman was painted in profile as opposed to full frontal!?
We can therefore offer Lorna's piece to our clients but it will only be sold
on the proviso that it remains as it was returned from Westminster, wrapped
up and with a large 'Ex Westminister' sticker blazened across it. To listen to the interview click
here.
To enquire about purchasing the painting please contact us
'Michael Howard' 90cm x 90cm Oil on Canvas
STUDIO TOURS:
Throughout 2008 we will be holding a monthly studio visit with selected DegreeArt .com artists. The visits will offer a great insight into how and where the artist creates their masterpieces, as well as allowing you to be able to ask questions in an informal setting. It is also a good opportunity to see work in progress and snap up pieces before they go on general sale.

Illustrator Victoria Scott has had her designs published in Illustration +Play alongside 22 other artists working across the globe. The book attempts to show that in a digital world there is still space for a more hands-on approach in illustration. The book is beautifully illustrated and with exclusive interviews is well worth a look.
