Johnny Cash’s daughter is to choose her favourite portrait of her late father from a collection drawn by Fifers, with the help of a world-famous artist.
Rosanne Cash, herself an award-winning singer songwriter, is to judge an art competition celebrating the musician’s links to the Falkland area.
Sculptor David Mach, who is from Fife, is to select the top six pieces to be sent to her.
People have been invited to enter their drawings of the legendary country singer for the inaugural annual art competition of Go Glenrothes.
The new organisation has been set up to promote Glenrothes and the surrounding area with the aim of creating a vibrant town.
Cash traced his roots to Strathmiglo and nearby Falkland, where there are farms and streets named after the clan.
Both he and Rosanne have visited the area and Rosanne wrote the song Good Intent, named after the ship that carried the first Cash across the Atlantic in the 17th Century.
Rosanne also played at the 2010 Big Tent Festival at Falkland Estate.
Go Glenrothes chair Leslie Bain said: “We are delighted that due to some early publicity we caught the attention of Johnny Cash’s daughter Rosanne who has been in touch to give this project her backing and has agreed to judge the top entries which will be sent to her electronically.
“We are also delighted to have attracted interest from internationally-renowned artist David Mach.”
The competition will be held in Lyon Square, in the Kingdom Shopping Centre, on Friday and Saturday, with Mach to attend on Saturday.
It is intended to be one of a series of new events for the area, ahead of Glenrothes’ 70th anniversary in 2018.
