BY HAILEY KETTERING

Stephanie Knipper is a student here at Western Dubuque High School who has a phenomenal talent that she developed at just three years old. She is an artist. Right now, Stephanie is in an advanced painting class and has completed a piece of  what originally looked like a regular water fountain, but she turned it into something beautiful. When asked what inspired her to paint the fountain, Stephanie replied, “I was walking around school taking pictures for an assignment, and I saw the water fountain and thought the picture would look cool with the water running.” The piece, without a doubt, turned out just the way she expected it to.

Stephanie plans on pursuing art in the future, but she is not quite sure of what kind. Being a cartoonist is something she wants to try.  However, for the time being, she will continue taking art classes and will keep at her successful work.
