BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
DONALD CLAPPER is the co-founder of the Trompe 1'Oeil Society of Artists. He graduated from the University of Colorado at Boulder, but it wasn't until the late 1980's, when he saw the work of William Harnett at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, that he became enthralled with the creation of the illusionary dimension and began to paint trompe l'oeil in earnest. Since then, his paintings have appeared in numerous national painting competitions, winning several awards including his selection as a finalist in the National Juried Art Competition. He also garnered Best of Show in 1996 and First Place in 2000 for submitted works. His work has been featured in several publications, and he has authored articles in such magazines as International Artist Magazine.
