Vicki Ellen Behringer’s global reputation as a top courtroom artist is
well deserved. Behringer’s art is
well known in the highest legal circles, network and local newsrooms.
On these next few pages you will find a sampling of some of the more
sensational trials she covered. These were all incorporated to illustrate court
stories either on the television news and/or the newspapers.
Prints and several of the originals are still available for sale.
If you don’t find a trial you are looking for, or would like to see
more of a particular trial, just give her a call since there are far too many to
display here.
The following excerpts underscore the growing value
of courtroom art.

| “Created on
site…each courtroom sketch is a unique document… a television prop and a
historical memento. Ironically, the
recent televisation of trials has endowed the courtroom art with a great and
perceived value; it is increasingly sought after by collectors”

| “As cameramen
replace illustrators in the halls of justice, the kinetically colored drawings,
made extra bright to hold up under hot TV lights, are becoming increasingly rare
and valuable”. |
