Students from Turpin and Canton received top honors in the 2009 Paul Laune High School Art Competition.
Brenton Krikhart, of Turpin, won best of show for his “dramatic” painting of “Condemnation” and Brandon Hicks, of Canton, won the Spirit/Theme Award for his western-themed “If They Could Only Talk.”
