Wymondham Arts Society member, John Shave, has appeared on the Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year TV show.
John was selected from 2,500 applicants to be one of only 8 artists to paint in a pod in the first programme of the series at Hampton Court Palace.
Despite the gruelling 12-hour day filming, the changing light conditions in the garden and the extreme heat, John enjoyed the experience, calling it an “adventure”.
John is a semi-retired professional artist and tutor who has been a stalwart of WAS for many years. He will be holding a solo exhibition at Becket's Chapel at the end of May this year.
Art appreciators can enjoy a series of arts-related events next month as the Wymondham Magazine Spring Arts Festival programme of events returns.
