Rachel Hall, 18, Mountainside secondary
Art teacher: Sara Place
Favourite art: watercolour painting
Favourite artist: Angela Howells
Her teacher writes: Rachel is a naturally gifted young artist who seems to intuitively pick up new artistic skills and concepts, and create imaginative, original pieces. When Rachel is creating she goes to a place of quiet, calmness that seems almost zen-like. This suits her understated approach to life and style, but her pieces are always a powerful visual indulgence.
