May 30-VANCOUVER - Three talented student artists from Southwest Washington earned state-level recognition at the 53rd Annual Superintendent's High School Art Show, which celebrated the creativity and artistic achievements of high school students from across Washington.

Since 1973, high school students from across Washington have participated in regional art shows sponsored by the state's nine Educational Service Districts. Finalists from those regional competitions are invited to submit their artwork to the Superintendent's High School Art Show, where entries are reviewed statewide. Each year, approximately 26 student artworks are selected for statewide recognition.
This year, three students whose artwork advanced from the ESD 112 Regional High School Art Show earned prestigious state awards:
Mariia Ukhova, "Contrasting Drapery" - Jurors' Choice Award, Union High School. Adalyn Gomez, "Shadows of a Forest" - Washington State School Directors' Association Award, Union High School. Scarlett Sakshaug, "ICE OUT" - Central Washington University Scholarship Award, Skyview High School.
The Superintendent's High School Art Show showcases artwork selected from regional competitions across the state and highlights the exceptional talent, creativity and dedication of Washington's student artists. Award recipients are selected through a juried review process involving arts professionals, educators and representatives from partner organizations.
