The win for Morag, who graduated from her Fine Art Painting degree in 2019, means that alumni from the University of Brighton course hold both the current Portrait Artist of the Year and the Landscape Artist of the Year following Elisha Enfield’s win of that title earlier this year.
Since graduating Morag has exhibited widely, is featured in the at Soho House Brighton, been shortlisted for a number of prestigious prizes and won the EROS Award, The Curators, New York/France, 2021 (winner), selected by Diana Widmaier Picasso.
