Jerwood Drawing Prize 2015: Selected Artists
The names of the selected artists - and links to their websites are detailed below.
The website link is my best guess from what I can find in a relatively short space of time. If I've got it wrong please let me know - comment on this post or send me an email (see side column) and I'll revise it.
- 40 selected artists (69%) have surnames which start with letters in the A-M range and
- 18 selected artists (31%) have surnames which start with letters in the N-Z range
I've included below images from artists who have announced which drawings have been selected for the exhibition.
If anybody else would like their selected image included in this post please send me a jpeg (see contact details) and reference where I can see this on your website.
The selected artists for the Jerwood Drawing Prize 2015 Exhibition are listed below. If you've ever needed some stimulation for revamping your website you should try looking at some of their websites - links are embedded in their names.

- Gary Lawrence - Gary won the Jerwood Drawing Prize in 2011 and generated a fair degree of press coverage as a result of the nature of his drawing and the fact that he does enormously complex drawings using 3p Tesco Value ballpoint pens (eg see Culture 24 article Jerwood Drawing Prize 2011 exhibition celebrates unknown in Homage to Anonymous and the Daily Mail article Hard-up artist bags £6,000 prize after using 3p biro to create stunning landscape. I'm wondering whether he's still doing very detailed and large drawings....
