Art Show Winners

SUCCESSFUL participants of an art exhibition in Rayleigh have been revealed.

Hundreds of art lovers were asked to vote when they visited Rayleigh Art Group’s Annual Exhibition with more than 100 paintings on display.

Organiser and chairman Colin Mossman, with his painting ‘Sunrise at Leigh-on-Sea’, was awarded first place, second went to Lesley Kirkham with her painting ‘Point of Light’, and in third was Elaine Hook with her painting ‘Poppy Meadow’.

Mr Mossman said: “It was pleasing for all those artists who had worked so hard to mount the exhibition, and for the artists to receive so many complimentary comments.

“All visitors were asked to choose their favourite painting.”

The event was opened by Mark Francois, MP for Rayleigh and Wickford, at the Women’s Institute Hall, in Bellingham Lane.

Mr Francois said: “We are very fortunate to have several gifted artists operating in the local area and this annual exhibition allows local residents to see for themselves, the valuable work which the group and its members undertake.”
