The Hancock County Arts Council's latest show, "Into the Wood," opens with an artists' reception on Friday, June 14, from 6:30 to 9 p.m., at the Twenty North Gallery, 20-A N. State St. (Hwy. 9) in Greenfield. The public is invited to this free event.
A group of seven artists and master artisans have used various techniques on wood to express their creative talents.
See fantasy figures, fairy houses, and walking sticks from Greenfield carver Jim Webb; pictures painted on wood from Donna Shortt, Sandy Hall and Carol Barrett; intricate, burnt animal images—some on sawn tree sections, some on paper--from Jennifer Flynn and Sharon Highsmith; master-crafted furniture from Dean Felker; and chipped-wood carving from "Mollie."
The show highlights the variety of ways human creativity expresses itself in a single medium; for instance, a Cardinals baseball bat with a red cardinal perched on a baseball—all as one piece. There are Colt gun grips, intricately carved from walnut and ebony, and a multitude of fascinating comic figures—both in painted and natural wood.
"Into the Wood" continues through June and appeals to people of all ages. Gallery hours are Wednesdays and Saturdays, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Admission is free.
Thanks for sharing!

April Fool’s! Yes, our gallery is currently empty, but it is because we are preparing for the Vawter competition. April 12 at 7 p.m. will be the Second Friday reception. Join us for wine and appetizers and to enjoy Hancock County’s premier annual art exhibit. While there is a time and place for emptiness, we think you’ll like the incredible work of the Vawter artists better 😉
