| The Winsland Award |
| Following the death of Bill Winsland in 2001, his
widow, Mrs Elaine Winsland, initiated an annual cash prize for the best
watercolour, gouache or mixed media landscape in the FCSA annual exhibition.
Bill, a former Second World War fighter pilot, was an accomplished artist who
extended his skills to sculpture and glass engraving. He made a valued
contribution to the Art Society as its first Chairman and it is fitting that
his name should be remembered in this way. Elaine Winsland died in 2011 and her grand-daughter kindly indicated that she would like to continue supporting the annual prize in memory of both her grandparents. |
