Submission 10: "Legacy of Jewels"

TITLE: "Legacy of Jewels"

ARTIST AGE: 17

MEDIUM: Gouache

ARTIST STATEMENT: For my competition piece, I aimed to depict the impact of the Alabama school board and its positive influence on students within the state's education system. The Alabama school board plays an important role in preparing students for success and ensuring they receive the necessary education to graduate from high school. I conveyed this idea through my illustration by having the art set during graduation with the board members watching from the crowd.
