Sophomore Artist Honored
Ashton Theesfeld ’26 represented FWCD at the Dallas Young Artist Exhibition, a selective show sponsored by Blue Print Gallery in Dallas. She received one of only five Honorable Mentions for her work, which included a cash prize of $500. Theesfeld selected, edited and submitted eight of her photographs to the gallery for consideration, and all eight were accepted into the show. “Ashton’s passion for excellence and unrelenting dedication to her craft are reflected in each piece she creates,” said Sil Azevedo, Upper School Photography Teacher. “She was selected to represent FWCD in this exhibition due to the consistent quality of her work. She always goes above and beyond. The fact that she is a sophomore, exhibiting side by side with juniors and seniors from the best high school art programs in the DFW metroplex is a testament to Ashton’s artistry.”
