On Monday 8 June we were delighted to attend Fife College and present this year's award to two outstanding arts students:  Emily Clark (HND Jewellery) and Ohla Karpova (HNC Photography).  A Highly Commended Certificate was awarded to Katie Lowndnes (HNC Photography).  Emily and Ohla will be using the award to further their chosen careers.  Emily is going on to Duncan of Jordanstone in the autumn.  She will be entering second year, alongside Emily Parkin - a recipient of our award last year and also a jewellery designer.  Ohla is setting up her own business focusing on potraiture and wedding photography.  

Congratulations go to all the students who applied.  It was a difficult choice to make - their work was of such a high standard.  We wish everyone continued success for the future.
