I'm so thrilled to share another award winner at Whitney High School,
junior Itzel Huerta.
Four years ago I taught Itzel art in her 7th and then 8th grade year.
She was an incredible talent from the get go,
and back then I posted most everything she created all over my blog.
So if you are interested in seeing how her art has matured and her techniques advanced,
insert her name in my search engine and scroll thru.
It almost killed me to leave her behind
(as well as Madison from the previous post)
when I retired.
Both girls were a joy to teach.
So I'm really excited to see that both of them are taking it upon themselves
to continue working and pushing themselves forward in the arts.
And it especially makes my heart soar to have them keep in touch after I left.
This glorious piece by Itzel earned her 1st place and a $1000 in the
Northgate Art Competition.
Congratulations Itzel,
can't wait to see where your talents will take you!
