Eva M.V. Hewitt, Richard Ford Award WINNER 2024

After spending Autumn in Madrid, completing her first ever artist residency and producing work among the elegant beauty of The Prado Museum, Eva Hewitt recently presented her final sketchbooks to the Richard Ford Award panel in London.

She is overjoyed to announce that she has received the Richard Ford Award 2024. 

This is a London-based award which allows artists to study directly from the works of the great masters. During her residency in September, she was photographed for and included in the official Museo del Prado press release which can be found here;
