Original holiday scenes
Jocelyn Ochoa’s Christmas art work is this year’s $200 scholarship winner in Reichenbach and Steiner, CPAs, and Samuel W. Diller Co. L.P.A, holiday window artwork contest.
Judged on Nov. 25, the winner’s painting was among 14 judged by a three-judge panel including Jim Fultz, Haley Rossman and Kathy Basinger.
Joceyln’s painting and the 13 other art pieces are displayed in the front window of Reichenbach and Steiner, 140 N. Main St., Bluffton.
Students in the competition are artists from Bluffton HS. Vickie Garmon is the BHS art teacher.
All of the art will be auctioned during the Friday, Jan. 10, Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce breakfast meeting. Proceeds from the auction go to the artists.
Artists in the competition are Nicole Boyle, Hannah Fenzl, Ellie Hoffman, Tre’ Bender, Amber Boop, Kaitlyn Montgomery, Jocelyn Ochoa, Tayler Nowak, Cara Young, Harrison Stechschulte, Bella Angel, Melina Meza, Zavier O’Neal and Victoria Gerachutz.
The students, ranging from sophomores to seniors, are enrolled in either Design I or Design II. Each of the works depicts a holiday scene in acrylic media.
