Thanks for posting this — I am totally biased and think Drew Simpson should win!
It’s a shame the image of Drew’s work doesn’t do the painting justice.
I love Amanda Reeves’ work, her sensitivity to colour and space is remarkable. I agree with the previous post in that it is difficult to assess painting from images on a screen. I look forward to seeing all of the work in person before passing too much judgment, but I do think Amanda should take it.
