Kenneth Jack Memorial Drawing Award

A quintessential quality of drawing is line - made primarily made through various media

as an expressive extension of our drawing finger.

Artworks submitted ideally will be intentional in their creation as a potential prize

winning work to extend and lift the art of drawing.

Allowed media for drawings:

Dry media – pencils (tonal and coloured); charcoal, conte, progresso, pastels, crayon

Wet media – including inks, fine line pens, liquid pens, water colour

Mixed media

David Jack:

“As the son of Kenneth Jack and on behalf of the family, I want to express our thanks for the way AGRA

has operated over the many yeas and how pleased we are that the new nation-wide council will continue

the Kenneth Jack Memorial Drawing Award to be held at the 50th AGRA Anniversary Exhibition later this

year.”

Kath Ballard Best Watercolour Award

Vicki and Ralph Ballard:

“We would like to express our very deep appreciation to the who people

have kept AGRA alive.

This guild of realist artists, that has now become nation-wide, needs to keep

existing in our art world of many styles and mediums. Realism is still today a

very significant style and the representations of art from this guild are such

an inspiration to artists. We are proud to be associated with this guild and in

memory of our mother, would like to announce our continuing support of

the Kath Ballard Best Watercolour Award. “
