Each year at the end of the fall semester, NLC art students are given the opportunity to submit a portfolio of his/her work to the art department for judging. Each portfolio contains five to eight pieces of art that represent the student’s best work.

Before the start of the spring semester, faculty members from the art department jury the portfolios for awards and competitions. North Lake College faculty reviewed 24 portfolios, giving ratings and comments that are shared with each student.

The faculty recently announced the following Student Art Portfolio Awards for 2003:

Rebecca Garza, recipient of the 2002-2003 Cecil Wallace Fordham Outstanding Art Student Award ($400). She will be presented with the award at a DCCCD Foundation luncheon in March along with recipients of the same award from the other colleges in the DCCCD.

Gina Kern and Shabbir Degani each received the Art Portfolio Excellence Award ($250 each.)

Haibei Ren and Soe Felicia Hansel were recipients of the Art Portfolio Commendation Award ($200 each).

Maggie Maxwell, Courtney Beal, Clay Beutler, Jena Rushing and Jeff Cornelius took the Art Portfolio WEOTA Award honors ($150 each).

During the selection process for the Student Portfolio Review, the following works were chosen for inclusion in an exhibition at Mountain View College in February for the League for Innovation:

“Foolhardy,” a sculpture using latex gloves, pipes and wood, by Rebecca Garza, Gina Kern’s painting, “Containment,” Shabbir Degani’s sculpture “Persistence of Memory,” a charcoal drawing by Jorge Figueroa entitled “Skulls,” a clay and paint sculpture by Haibei Ren entitled “Looking Glass,” a clay and paint sculpture by Ibrahim Abusaad entitled “Contained,” Maggie Maxwell’s painting “Misery,” and Kym Munson’s painting “Unveiled.”

First runner-up for the League for Innovation was a painting by Jeff Cornelius. Second runner-up was a sculpture by Clay Beutler entitled “Cause and Effect,” which was made from cigarettes and matches.

From this exhibit, a professional juror will select five pieces that will represent the DCCCD in the 2003 National League for Innovation Student Art catalog.
