In 2017, I created a work of art using acrylic paint on a 150 x 100 canvas. This piece was submitted to the Scholastic Awards, where it was one of 330,000 entries considered for recognition. I am proud to share that my work was awarded a Golden Key by the Scholastic Awards, a prestigious honor that speaks to the quality and impact of the piece.
