Art students and their parents at Lakota West High School had the unique opportunity to hear presentations by artist and illustrator, CF Payne.  Payne is world renowned for his art illustrations; some of which have graced the covers of Rolling Stone Magazine, Time Magazine and Reader’s Digest.  Payne has also illustrated numerous children’s books for authors such as Mark Kelly, the astronaut husband of Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, and actor John Lithgow.

Samples of his work can be viewed at www.cfpayne.com.

Payne spoke with the students about the history of art and illustration, as well as the role that art plays in their lives.  Students in the AP Drawing class were able to speak with CF Payne and hear his critique their work.
