NOAA Deep Sea T-Shirt Art Contest


I want to give recognition to some Frank artists. NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) is doing deep sea research off the Channel Islands.  They recently had a t-shirt design contest to promote interest in this ocean science research, and many R.J. Frank students from Ms. Byrnes and Ms. Hernandez’s class entered the contest by submitting original artwork.  There were so many great designs that the scientists involved in choosing the winner decided to choose nine designs and create a montage of the art with nine winners. Three of the artists are Frank students.  Besides recognition they will win a NOAA deep sea t-shirt.
The t-shirt contest winners are all from Katherine Burns art class, and they are
  • Francisco Rosales (rockfish)
  • Ruby Lemus Basket Star (basket star)
  • Gustavo Perez (angler fish)
The t-shirts arrived over summer vacation and they will be given to Francisco, Ruby and Gustavo.
