Knutsford Plein Air Painting Competition - Garry Hartley

Many thanks to Garry Hartley for sharing his experience of a painting competition, also entered by Sarah Stanley-another SAG member. 

"29 Artists and me entered the Discover Knutsford plein air painting competition on Sunday - Sarah was one of the 29 and presented an amazing piece. Nice day for it too - blank canvasses were stamped from 09:30 and handed in by 4:30 for judging by the Mayor with help from a Gallery owner. First time comp for me - you have to start somewhere The Knutsford Town Council social media pages - Discover Knutsford - will be updated soon and the 3rd prize will be a public vote"
