Brush With Success

A trio of art students took gold, silver and bronze awards at the Worldskills UK Art competition 2008.

Rachael Kibbler’s mixed media piece, Ford 370, impressed the judges to the extent she took the gold award; Kirsty MacDonald earned silver with All Dressed Up, a conté and chalk drawing; and Ross Lesslie’s mixed media piece, Rusty Bow, scooped bronze.

Rachael has gained HNC contemporary art practice, while both Ross and Kirsty were on the portfolio preparation programme. All three have gained places at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art.
