I am deeply honoured to have received this award from Drs Salvatore Russo and Francesco Saverio Russo (Italy) who have supported me in the expression of my own voice. The award recognises that "contemporary art needs artists capable of witnessing, each with their own language, the true value of art." The catalogue and the May/June 2021 issue of  "Art International Contemporary Magazine" that accompanied the award featured Life-lines #20, from my ‘Life-lines’ series of paintings (2020).
