Leicester student's portraits of great-grandparents recognised by The Royal Academy of Arts
Leicester is well known as the starting place for now globally recognisable names.
And that tradition isn't slowing down as a year 11 student from Beauchamp College has been recognised in a show by the Royal Academy of Arts.
Now in its third year, the Young Artists’ Summer Show is an exhibition for students aged 5 - 19.

Jobe, and his mum Claire, told Ben Jackson why he created this artwork.
