Joshua Andrews Wins This Year's Brownston Fresh Talent Award
University Arts PlymouthJoshua Andrews Wins This Year's Brownston Fresh Talent AwardThe gallery has always liked to support emerging artists and for many years has enjoyed a close relationship with the Arts University Plymouth. Each year a graduate from the BA (Hons) Painting, Drawing & Printmaking Course is presented with the Brownston Fresh Talent Award, and this year it was given to Joshua Andrews.
The standard of work was exceptionally high but I chose Joshua because of his striking use of colour and impressionistic style.. I particularly like the way Joshua's paintings evoke the feeling of being in a dreamlike place while at the same time creating a strong sense of atmosphere. His work has a confident boldness, each thoughtfully composed and clearly reflecting a thorough, well considered process.
The gallery is looking forward to exhibiting Joshua's paintingsOn 3rd October till 17th October
