    Norwich carpenter wins award at the British Art Prize 2025

    Colin Revell was nominated for the British Art Prize 2025 earlier this year, securing a spot in the final 50 out of nearly 3,000 entrants across the country. 

    Last week, the watercolour enthusiast from Norwich won the award for People’s Choice and was “chuffed” with this achievement.

    Mr Revell said: “I was blown away to receive the prize for people’s choice.

    “I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who voted for my painting of New York, I really appreciate you all taking the time to do that”.
