LOCAL artist Ryan Swain has had a piece of his artwork entered into the Ashurst Emerging Artist Prize 2021 in London.
The piece featured in the competition is called Carnivore Of Colours and was produced by Ryan in the first lockdown of the pandemic.
Ryan said:"To have my work entered in such a prestigious event means the word to me. I have always had a keen passion and interest in all styles of art and have recently rekindled my passion for it. I feel like you can get lost in the contrast of alluring colours used in this piece but you are in the eye of the tiger and you are its prey.
The Ashurst Emerging Artist Prize 2021 is awarded to artists that show significant potential, interesting ideas, a relevant message and skilful execution.
