In this episode I’m taking you back to my interview with Megan Seres who won the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize in 2016. 
Megan received the $150,000 in prize money for her stunning painting, ‘Scarlett as Colonial girl’, which depicted her daughter in 19th century dress against a golden landscape.

Megan hadn't planned on entering the competition, but was persuaded by a friend. When she heard her name announced as the winner, she was completely shocked.
