I’m really delighted to be a 2025 recipient of the prestigious Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Grant to support my painting practice. The Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation, based in Montréal, Canada, supports young artists worldwide working at the forefront of representational art.
“The Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation grant is more than financial support; it is a mark of distinction. It has long been regarded as one of the most prestigious and substantial awards available to emerging representational artists. Those who receive it join a lineage of past recipients whose exceptional talent has redefined representational art across generations. With a history spanning more than half a century, the Foundation remains one of the only institutions of its kind that offers support to students and artists worldwide.
In recognition of its profound impact in the art world, the Foundation has been honored with the Excellence in Fine Art Education Award from the Portrait Society of America (2016) and the Gary Melchers Memorial Award from the Artists Fellowship (2021). Yet, its greatest achievement remains the artists themselves—their canvases, their sculptures, their visions made real, all bearing the imprint of a foundation that has championed them from the very beginning.”
