Jill Ansell & Melissa Clements

Even though Australia’s premier portraiture prize, the Archibald, has marked over 100 years, it has never been awarded to a Western Australian artist. Even being shortlisted as a finalist is an astounding achievement for artists from the west coast.

Don’t miss this rare chance to hear from two West Australian artists who managed to attain this feat; being selected as Archibald finalists. Jill Ansell and Melissa Clements will share their Archibald stories at the next Inglewood Arts Hub Artist Talk in January 2024.
