Student of the month - April 2012

April was a short but very busy and productive month!
JC projects are almost complete, with just the final drawing exams taking place this Wednesday. Best of luck to all the JC students. They have worked extremely hard all year, this month it was hard to pick just one student from each year!

And also best of luck to all the LC students who have their practical exams this week. It begins with a 5 hour Craft Exam this Thursday, followed by 2.5 hour Still Life Drawing exam Friday morning, and finally a 1 hour Life drawing exam Friday afternoon!

And also a big congratulations to Shauna Creighton, who has been offered a place in The Limerick School of Art and Design Shauna scored an impressive 480/600 for her portfolio assessment.
It is extremely hard and competitive to get into both these courses, so again well done to both girls for all the extra work that is involved in preparing a portfolio.
