Curious to find out how you can master writing about your art?
Join us on the 9th of May 2024 for an exclusive online masterclass designed for artists, "Crafting Compelling Art Prize Applications and Artist Statements." Hosted by Karen van Hoey Smith, Art Director, this masterclass is a valuable opportunity to gain insights from renowned panelists Karen Turner, Dubel Art Prize Finalist, and Josephine Zentner, Jackson's Art Prize winner.Karen Turner
Karen Turner is an award-winning figure and portrait artist whose oil paintings are a commentary on the weight of expectations. Focusing on the physical body and the scrutiny to which it is commonly subjected, her paintings explore what society expects of a woman, the ways in which a woman’s shape is often considered to define her, and the impact that this has on her life and sense of self.
Karen was the winner of the VAA Professional Artist Award in 2022 and is currently one of ten finalists for The Dubel Emerging Artist of the Year Prize. She was awarded the President’s Prize by the Institute of East Anglian Artists and has been a finalist in the Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize, the Holly Bush Emerging Woman Painter Prize and the Theo Paphitis Art Prize. She exhibits with The Other Art Fair and has recently held her first solo show in London with Red Eight Gallery.
Josephine Zentner
Josephine Zentner is the Art Prize and Gallery Coordinator at Jackson's. She produces the annual international competition that attracts thousands of entries per year, resulting in two London exhibitions of shortlisted works. Being a practicing artist herself, Josephine offers first hand insight on submitting art to competitions.
