Lichfield resident, former Mayor, and long-standing member of the Lichfield Society of Artists, Doris English, was guest of honour at the Society’s awards made in the Friary in Lichfield on Saturday 9th September.

Awards handed out included ‘The Michael Fabricant Cup for Best Landscape Painting’ and this year it was won by the Society’s Chair: Christine Taylor.

Michael Fabricant, Patron of the Society, says “The creative talent pool in Lichfield and beyond in the wider west midlands runs very deep and the Lichfield Society of Artists has members from over the whole region. I was delighted to award the Cup for best Landscape Painting to Christine whose work was very evocative.

“The exhibition remains open at The Friary in Lichfield until Wednesday 27th September and has free entry. It is well worth seeing.”
