麻豆原创鈥檚 annual holiday card art contest was won by Pocatello native Karma Morgan this year. Morgan, a sophomore studying biology, won with a colored-pencil drawing of ISU-themed ornaments hanging from a Christmas tree with twinkling lights.

鈥淚 love sitting by the Christmas tree with the tree lights turned on during the holiday season. I wanted to illustrate that cozy feeling you get during the holidays with this piece,鈥� Morgan said. Morgan took several art classes in high school and now continues to draw for fun.

The contest鈥檚 runner-up was Dylan Childress, who submitted a snowy scene of the Pond Student Union. Childress is pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and is from Idaho Falls.

鈥淚 wanted to do a piece that ISU staff members and students could identify with, and that is why I chose to do the SUB and Red Hill,鈥� Childress said.

Morgan won a $1,000 prize for her entry. Childress received $500 as runner-up.
