ORANGE PARK – Because of the generosity of our membership through raffles at monthly meetings and community fundraisers, the Art Guild of Orange Park has awarded almost $3,000 in scholarships to four talented high school seniors from Clay County.
Clay High’s Audrey Milligan was given $1,500 after earning the top prize in the Courtenay Hunt Scholarship Program. She shared her portfolio with the membership, detailing her journey to becoming an artist from her childhood in South Africa. Her portfolio focused on her personal history from her childhood to the present, detailed in portraits in differing perspectives that captured the changes her journey has brought her through skillfully and sensitively represented emotions.
The second-place award of $1,000 went to Delilah Hines from Orange Park High. Delilah’s portfolio captured her playful wit with a razor’s edge of dark humor. Her artwork, often containing unusually combined subjects and surreal elements, is inspired by her inner dialog of “what if….”
Two honorable mentions were given $100 each.
Nkiruka Ibe is a ceramic artist from Oakleaf High whose portfolio was focused on her roots in Nigeria. Her ceramic pieces were functional and beautiful, featuring details that spoke of her rich cultural heritage. Orange Park High’s Jessica Cherry’s medium is in the digital and digitally enhanced painting realm. Her portfolio showcased her whimsical representation of young women rendered with a “pop art/cubism/op art” fusion.
