Congratulations to Echo Huang, for being announced the STAEDTLER 2024 Artist of the Year 2024 Overall Winner.

A note from Staedtler: ‘The judges were blown away with your skill level and how much they were drawn into the piece. The way you were able to tell a story in this artwork was so effective & was testament to the skill you obviously have. The judges went on to say, ‘the skill level in this year’s competition was the best they had ever seen and to pick one out of all the entries was a hugely difficult task. However, in the end your artwork rose above everyone else’s and deservingly won the overall award.' As well as being crowned STAEDTLER 2024 Artist of the Year 2024, which was chosen from over 1100 entries, Echo also won the 13-17 age group. Echo has won a $500 Prezzy Card and a $150 art gift pack for the age group award and an additional $1000 Prezzy Card for Overall Winner.
