Friendswood student places in stamp contest


FROM FRIENDSWOOD ISD

Congratulations to Friendswood Junior High artist Brooke Bartholomew, who placed third in the 2010 Texas Duck Stamp Contest.

More than 425 entries were part of this year’s competition.

This contest is held annually by the United States Department of the Interior’s Fish and Wild Life Service.

“This year the quality of artwork was amazing. There was more top quality works than I have ever seen,” Jennifer Sanchez Texas Duck Stamp Coordinator, said.

Bartholomew’s art teacher is Ron Brown.

“Brooke is an outstanding artist and leader in the field of arts representing Friendswood Junior High at the Texas State Competition in outstanding fashion,” Brown said. “She exemplifies the beauty of ARTS in everything she does.”

Along with being an outstanding artist, Bartholomew is also an excellent percussionist placing second chair in region band.

A copy of the duck stamp design created by Bartholomew is on display in the glass cases by the FJH library.
