In March, Academy of Art University announced that School of Illustration student Shiella Witanto was selected as the winner representing the West region of the United States in the Red Bull Doodle Art competition. In addition, 10 region finalists were recognized for their work, including Academy students Justin Oltesvig, Doug Edwards, Agustin Morael, and Laine Renfro.

The Red Bull Doodle Art competition is a worldwide art competition inviting university students from across the globe to submit their artwork and showcase their artistic talent. Doodlers from each region will have their work exhibited in Red Bull Doodle Art’s Global Virtual Reality gallery.

Among all the entries for the contest, the Academy had the most student submissions compared to any other participating university in the U.S.

Congratulations to our talented Academy students for their success!
