Works by four Irish teenage artists are to go on exhibition at a festival in Japan later this summer.

They were chosen from the winners of last year’s Texaco Children’s Art Competition.

The 22nd International High School Arts Festival will take place in Tokyo this August.

The artworks are:

Kevin In The Pink by Casey Etherton (17) from Coláiste na Sceilge, Cahersiveen, Co Kerry.

A self-portrait by P.J. Doherty (15) from at St Eunan's College, Letterkenny, Co Donegal.

Everything But The Kitchen Sink by Katie Cumiskey (16) from Our Lady's Secondary School, Castleblayney, Co Monaghan.

The International High School Arts Festival is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious exhibitions to take place in Tokyo annually.
