The watercolour painting "Skratchen Dent Furniture" by Peter Bowen is awarded Selectors Choice at the Clifton Arts Club 100th Open Exhibition. From over 540 entries the selection committee chose to hang 320 paintings. "It's very encouraging to see that fine art illustration is accepted and recognised as art in an exhibition like this" said Stan Drew a collector of fine art, "this lovely watercolour painting by Peter Bowen is an example of what talented artist's in the Bristol area are capable of producing and it's good see that the Clifton Arts Club continues to support the artists in this community".
