The 2015 Krylon® Clear Choice Art Scholarship campaign resulted in nearly 100 qualified submissions.
The talent represented in reviewed portfolios is quite impressive, making annual judging increasingly
difficult.
Five recipients have received a $1,000 scholarship to the college of their choice, as well as a package of
Krylon® artist products. The scholarship recipients’ high schools art programs also received a
$500 grant and Krylon artist products, from which multiple students will benefit.
An additional ten students received Krylon product packages valued at $70 each and their high school art
programs received product packages valued at $250 each.

I feel like a story is best told by simply looking into a person’s face. It is
important for me, as an artist, to capture this in my work.

Art, to me, has a lot to do with seeing beauty in areas not always recognized.

Drawing and painting is truly an out of mind experience for me and it is always a little
startling to see a face emerge from what was once a blank page.

Art is a field with many diverse opportunities. I want to be able to share my creations and
help inspire others to do the same.

I love using my art to communicate with others because a piece is interpreted by everyone
differently and has more depth than words ever have.
