[Please banking concern annotation this post was revised on 19th May - I had a niggle near the price in addition to weather condition which became defined to a greater extent than exactly after a goodness night's sleep!]

Also, I've straightaway had confirmation that the Derwent Art Prize (for pencil art) is non running this twelvemonth (regular readers may recollect the tilt near the honour of the prize in conclusion year) in addition to volition inwards hereafter run on a biennial basis.

Which agency that The Jerwood Drawing Prize is the premier prize for drawing this year.

Hopefully its judges volition read its rules carefully earlier selecting artists in addition to prizewinners - dissimilar those who judged the Derwent in conclusion year!
