George, a talented Year 1 pupil from The Paragon School, has received the exciting news that his fantastic painting — inspired by Judith Kerr’s The Tiger Who Came to Tea — has been selected for display in the Royal Academy of Arts’ Young Artists’ Summer Show. George’s artwork, created during his Art lessons at The Paragon, was chosen from over 23,000 submissions nationwide!
Now in its seventh year, the prestigious exhibition showcases work by young artists aged 4–18 and is judged by a panel of professional artists and arts educators. George’s piece will be displayed for the public at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in July, as well as featured online.
Miss Alex Hucks, Head of Art at The Paragon, said:
“Congratulations to George — what an incredible achievement at such a young age! His creativity and imagination truly shone through in this piece. We are so proud of him and delighted that his talent is being recognised on a national stage.”
