A Warwickshire-based artist has been showcased alongside paintings by Van Gogh and Monet across the globe by home appliance brand Hisense.

Portrait Artist and Landscape Artist of the Year judge Kate Bryan selected Libby Bess's illustration Melting Away in a UK-wide competition open to students, professionals and amateurs.

Over 20 amateur artists were chosen to appear across Hisense's VIDAA TV platform, an operating system accessible across a wide range of TV brands which currently show Libby's artwork.

Libby was a member of Leamington Studio Artists and Warwickshire Open Studios for a number of years but now attends art shows, markets or other art events across the county.

"We're thrilled to bring homegrown UK talent to a global audience," Rob Andrews, Head of Strategy & GTM at Hisense UK said.

Founded in China over 50 years ago, Hisense was an official partner of UEFA Euro 2024 tournament and a sponsor of the FIFA World Cup 2026.

"We can't wait for our customers to enjoy historic masterpieces and local work side by side from the comfort of their living room," he added.

Libby Bess has been approached for comment.
