I've got a 'Commended' for my entry for the Stevens Competition for Architectural Glass which has been run by the Worshipful Company of Glaziers and Painters of Glass since the 70s. It's for a backlit panel in the new maternity wing of the Elizabeth Garrett Anderson Hospital. I didn't think I was in with a chance as my tutor told me it was very much a skills-based competition to keep traditional glass painting alive. I argued that this is a form of painting in glass. And I've come through as a finalist - one who, 'in the opinion of the judges, merits recognition'. So exciting! I'm not posting my design because it doesn't work on screen. My colleagues at Farnham touchingly pleased for me today.
