Well Done Rachel! Competition Winner!

I am sure many of you are familiar with Rachel Sanderson, who has brightened many a long day at TRC by walking around wearing chickens and sweet wrappers in her hair! I am very pleased to report that she has just won first prize in an online gallery competition we entered, run by Specialist Craft Magazine. They were particularly impressed with one of her pieces of sculptural plaster and stich art from her ‘Deconstruction’ series and singled this out as the winning piece. Rachel produced this as part of her A2 Art exam. It is currently on display along the accounts corridor opposite the entrance to Richards’s office and is well worth a look. Rachel won £75 in vouchers to spend on Art materials at Specialist Craft.  A perfectly timed and well deserved prize as she is just about to embark on her new life as Fine Art student at Newcastle University.  Rachel did very well at TRC achieving 100% marks and A* in A2 Fine Art. I am sure she will make an equally memorable and good impression at Newcastle and on behalf of the Art Department and TRC we wish her well.
