This commemorative 16" x 20" illustration celebrates Metamora Township High School's 2009 4A State Championship through its star player, Aaron Peters. Created in 2011 as a commissioned gift, the piece showcases Fall's masterful combination of colored pencil detail over watercolor foundations, particularly evident in the hyper-realistic rendering of Peters' uniform - from battle-worn helmet scratches and grass-stained shoulders to intricate fabric folds and textures. The hand-drawn championship text, complete with precision measurement marks, anchors the piece and reinforces its commemorative significance.
