After a brilliant official opening for the PPP19 yesterday it is with QG&W’s great pleasure to be able to announce the PPP19 winners.

Geelong Gallery director, Jason Smith and master printer, Bill Young faced the very difficult task of selecting just two works for the PPP19 Winner and Highly Commended awards.

Congratulations to PPP19 winners:
