Coventry Open - Judge

What a great day! Being part of the judging panel for Coventry Open 2025 - its been an honour and a privilege—an energising and inspiring process from start to finish.

A huge thank you to Kirstie Lewis and the team at the Herbert Museum and Art Gallery for making it such an enjoyable experience, and to the close-to-1000 artists who took a leap of faith and submitted their work. The sheer diversity and depth of creativity on display was extraordinary.

I love my work, but days like this stand out—immersed in artistic practice, surrounded by talent, and given the chance to reflect on the power of creativity.

It was a pleasure to judge alongside Jason Wilsher-Mills (www.jwmartist.co.uk) and Jemima Graham (www.madeinmim.com), whose insight and enthusiasm made the experience all the richer.
