LENGTH: Short : 22 lines ILLUSTRATION: PHOTO: Joel Nilsen, a 13-year-old student of artist Barbaraby CNBCapps, is one of the young artists featured in the current exhibit
at Virginia Tech's Perspective Gallery. The Blacksburg Middle School
student won the state PTA Reflections Contest a few years ago for
his artwork. This piece was done as an illustration for the cover of
a textbook written by Joel's father, Erik Nilsen, and Dave Orcutt,
both professors at Virginia Tech. The picture, a blending of the
desert and the tropical forest, represents the book's study of plant
stress physiology. For more information on the exhibit at
