The winners of a competition to design a Worthing postcard have been announced.

Organisers chose seven postcards that reflected differing views of the town, some traditional and others abstract.

The artists were Jane Brackin, Erica Sturla, Kim Kallend, Christiane Kersten, Adrian Crick, Dan Thompson and the late Sam Fenton.

Erica, 37, of Salvington Road, Worthing, is a freelance graphic designer who moved to Worthing at the end of last year to live by the sea.

Her postcard of the seafront and is inspired by an art deco-style poster design dating from the Thirties.

Mr Fenton's watercolour, which features people playing bowls, was submitted by his widow.

Mr Thompson, who helped organise Worthing Festival Fringe, said: "Two companies leading the arts in Worthing teamed up for the first Worthing Postcard Competition, part of the Worthing Fringe.

"We wanted work in every media, shape and size which took its inspiration from the town."
