The Artist Within
"A Little Mojo" and "Search for Life"- 313 S Walnut

"Mo jo" is our way of saying we are featuring "more Joe Flynn".  Joe has been painting up a storm since his last show at the Artist Within and has been involved with the "Walking Man Project" in Anderson.

 

"Search for Life" is in the upper level gallery, featuring work by Jerry Hannah.  Jerry is a 47 year old artist who just recently graduated from Ball State with a BFA in drawing. His work has been inspired by his longtime interest in astronomy and by Robert Crotty, an artist who took his own interest in astronomy and incorporated it into his artwork.
