Kelso award-winning artist: ‘not very good at painting’

However, she admits the award-winning piece pushed her to her limits.

“This piece, Flora, was a real test of how far I could take my skills and all the knowledge that I’ve gathered,” she said.

Frippy combined teaching art in schools with various other jobs, before turning to sculpting full-time eight years ago as her talent became more globally-recognised.

She believes Scotland could produce many more sculptors if children were given the chance to learn.

She said: “I’m not very good at painting or drawing, and I think in schools children often say: ‘I can’t do art.’

“But sculpture is quite a different way of thinking, and that’s something I’d like to get more involved in – encouraging children and young adults into sculpture.

“A child who enjoys making lego or building stuff with wood, and just knocking things up, probably has more of that engineering or sculpting mind.”

Her work is on show at the Inception Art Show in Dalkeith Palace from 3 May to 12 May, which is raising funds for the My Name’s Doddie Foundation.
