MHS Student Hopes to Teach Art


 “Giraffe” by Wendy Duchene

Montpelier, Ohio – February 7, 2012 – Wendy Duchene is making plans to attend college and study to be an art teacher one day.  Currently a Junior at Montpelier High School, she is a very talented artist who prefers to draw animals, especially their eyes.  “The eyes of an animal tell you how they feel – you can almost tell what they want to say to you”, she explains.  She was very excited to learn that her work had been selected for display at Kannel Superior Agency, Inc.

Wendy’s impressive pencil drawings of a tiger and giraffe display careful and deliberate details that make them jump off the page.  Her preference for the eyes of the animals is obvious as they seem to reach out and speak to you.  Wendy attributes the support of her parents, Bob and Tammy Duchene, family and friends for her accomplishments so far.  “None of this would happen with them” she notes.

Kannel Superior Agency, Inc. is proud to feature Wendy’s work in their office and invites the public to stop in and see “Tiger” and “Giraffe” during the months of February and March.  The office is located at 301 West Main Street, at the heart of historic downtown Montpelier.  For more information, contact Chris Kannel at 419-485-4281 or chris@kannelinsurance.com
