History of the Challenge
Penrith Art Club's 'The Great Still Life Challenge' started in 2018 and happens once a year on a club night, it is Linda Stanton and Margaret Jones who decide on a challenge. Artists choose a table and have one and a half hours to complete the challenge.
In 2018 Linda recreated four tables depicting four of the Great Artists still life paintings.
Rheged Centre very kindly donated 1st and 2nd prize with a 3rd prize donated from the art club.
To view the winning paintings and the tables that were created please go to 'The Creations 2018 - 2019' page.

Due to the pandemic in 2020 the competition did not run, as we all believed we'd be resuming activities.
