(1st Place – Sculpture)
Title of Art Piece: Untitled
Category: Sculpture
Student/Artist’s Name: Haley O’Brien
School: Bethel Regional High School
Grade: 9th
Artist Statement: This project was inspired by the Day of the Dead. We were instructed to make a sculpture of a hand. The fingers are made of wire so they can move, and then covered in clay. After everything was dried, I started painting. I chose my favorite color for the base and let my mind and hand do as it pleased for the designs.
