Best Friends by Eimear FitzGerald , a pupil at the Ennis Art School in Co Clare, took third prize in Category A of the 2024 Texaco Children's Art Competition.
No stranger to the competition, Bell was also the overall competition winner last year as well as winning Special Merit Awards in both 2020 and 2021. The inspiration for her prize-winning portrait came when she discovered a photo of an old woman and felt the emotion in her face would be fascinating to bring to life.The rationale for moving from Dublin to commuter counties has never been stronger
Third prize went to Clare student, Eimear Fitzgerald , a pupil at Ennis Art School, for her work entitled Best Friends. The youngest age group in the Competition – 6 years and under – was won by four-year old Louth student, Tadhg Traynor, from Rainbow Club, Drogheda, for his work entitled Dog. The prize for his work was €150.
The Texaco Children’s Art Competition is regarded as the longest-running sponsorship in the history of arts sponsoring in Ireland, with a history that dates back to the very first Competition held in 1955. This year was its 70th year running.
