As a first-time entrant, I’m absolutely thrilled to be taking part. Congratulations to all of the other artists who have been successful and commiserations to those who haven’t been chosen - never give up! Having had a quick look at the submissions when I was dropping my work off, I’m so looking forward to seeing everyone’s work.
