August 8th, 2010 at 11:46 pm‘HERE’ by Edward Bowie

August 9th, 2010 at 1:49 amI vote for Jed & Bailey from Trish Collyer because of the astounding detail of the pencil work and the perfectly captured facial expressions.
August 9th, 2010 at 8:10 amI vote for :
August 9th, 2010 at 9:16 amKOI - Isabel Frias.
Lovely!
I vote for Memory by Yi han Chen - it just appeals to me!
August 9th, 2010 at 11:31 amI vote for “Fen near Thorney” a small water colour, but it capture the spirit of place very well - but it mainly gets my vote for the amazing way the clouds have been painted - original and striking
Congratulations to all involved. I thought the exhibition was expertly hung in a very limited space and the overall quality was very high indeed
August 9th, 2010 at 11:49 amI vote Edward Bowie, lovely colours and textures
August 9th, 2010 at 1:10 pmMy vote is for Jed & Bailey by Trish Collyer as she has captured them so well.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:11 pmI was especially impressed by ‘Hopes and Fears’ by Stuart Bush. It reminds me of a poem called ‘London’ by Blake which has always stayed in my mind. But I love ‘Here’ by Edward Bowie too, which is more or less the opposite in what it has to say. I also liked ‘Thomas Clarkson’ by Jan Wickes.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:17 pmI vote for Here by Edward Bowie, lovely.
August 9th, 2010 at 1:21 pmI vote for The Camel by Benedict Mayer. This Fen stilt walker truly dominates the landscape and is a man on a mission. I’m not normally one for still life but the depth and richness of colour in Apple and Cherry by Ed Cooper bring the fruit to life in an exceptional way. Scrumptious.
August 9th, 2010 at 3:23 pmI vote for KOI - Isabel Frias.
August 9th, 2010 at 4:00 pmLovely colours

August 10th, 2010 at 10:38 pmInteresting mix of stuff!! Prue Pye’s piece is beautiful and Denise Brown’s work is adorable, but I’m going to give my vote to Benedict Mayer’s ‘Camel’ - it must have taken ages and the composition and colour is outstanding! Well done everyone.

August 13th, 2010 at 10:25 amFor me it is Hopes and Fears by Stuart Bush because I have questions for the artist, the style is unusual and absorbing, the contrast between the bold background and ghostlike man draws me in. Caroline
