Recently Jayce submitted a drawing of his to the Texas Visual Arts Scholastic Event per recommendation from one of his teachers. Jayce has not had any formal art classes, so he entered into the amateur division. As you know, last weekend we went to the event, and he made it thru the first round of qualifications. The judging continued this past week. They announced at school that Jayce earned first place in his division!! He received 58/60 points. They did not allow pictures to be taken at the event, but we did manage to get a few.
There was a huge turnout and much competition, no kidding. There was about 700 or more students in the competition.
As I said, they would not allow pictures, so we did not get many. Nonetheless, it was fun and intense for Jayce I’m sure. At one point, he had to go up and talk to the judges about his drawing, etc. The waiting to see if he qualified was extreme.
We are SUPER proud of Jayce!! Keep it up, kiddo!
