Congratulations to the other prize winners: Louisa Boyd, Flora McLachlan, Lucie MacGregor

Congratulations also to all the other shortlisted artists: Paulette Bansal, Suzanne Bethell, Tony Carlton, Louise Garman, Pam Grimmond, Ian Irvine, Nick Loaring, Claire Willberg, Susan Wright.

‘Since 2014 the Flourish Award has been open to printmakers across the UK, and in our 11th year, the 2020 Award will provide artists and printmakers with the opportunity to exhibit their work in an exhibition at the WYPW Gallery in Mirfield, followed by Woodend gallery in Scarborough.

The Flourish Award celebrates and showcases excellence in printmaking from artists based in the UK by shortlisting around 12-15 artists from open submission. We are looking for creativity, skill, originality and innovation in print: from relief print and intaglio, to screenprint, lithography and more.

The competition is open to established, emerging and student artists/printmakers in the UK, with prizes awarded by an independent panel of judges.’
