Celebrated Artist – Greg Walter

Greg Walter was voted Celebrated Artist by The MOSI Art Guild for a drawing he displayed at the first Red Barn Arts and Crafts Festival many years ago. Intrigued by a study done by Francis Bacon of a Velasquez portrait, Walter replaced the subject with his own self portrait in his study of the Bacon piece.

“Self Portrait” is displayed in the window of the Kirksville Arts Association, 217 S. Franklin St. For more information on The MOSI Art Guild, Colleen Wagner may be contacted at [email protected].
