2017 Finalist, Grade 12

Claire Fallon

A Valentine Trompe l'oeil, 2017

Oil on canvas.

18 x 24 in

Teacher: LMC Fellow Brad LeDuc (2014 KS)
School: Washburn Rural High School, Topeka, KS

Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "My painting is an attempt to capture the essence of wildlife service member Jake Valentine. It is a trompe-l’oeil painting or a painting that uses realism to trick the eye into thinking the objects exist in a three-dimensional space. It aims to include influential aspects of Valentine’s life."
