Congratulations again to Laura for being selected as a semi finalist with her piece Natural Habitat.  We wish her the best of luck for when the finalists are announced on 16th October. 'Founded by Doug & Greta Moran and family in 1988, the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize (DMNPP) is an annual Australian portrait painting prize supporting Australian artists. The prize has encouraged both excellence and creativity in contemporary Australian portraiture by asking artists to interpret the look and personality of a chosen sitter, either unknown or well known.
