Johnson Displays Primitive Art In Ubrary
Ed Johnson is presently displaying his art in the Cassville Branch Library. The show started Monday. August 22. and will continue through September 16, 1977. Johnson's works are classified as "primitil-'e" art because of their simplicity and instinctive form. This primitive characteristic is also enhanced by a strong Indian and nature theme threaded throughout the art. The works have been done on boards and plexaglass with oils and acrylic paint. Johnson is a native of Georgia. but has lived in the Washburn area the last two years. Before coming to this area he had lived and traveled in Canada. He has been painting off and on for the last five years . Many of his paintings n>flect his interest in life in the wilderness and the feel for nature that is held in Indian art. Some of the works are expressions of his imagination . He says. "I think everyone is an artist if they would only try to express themselves." Although he has had no forma.i art training he de~ply enjoys the feeling of putting images down with paints. Everyone is cor dially invited to view the paintings this month at the library.

-. Horner Family Art on Display at Cassville Library The Cassville Branch of the Regional Library is at present displaying art by an entire family. Fredalene and Wayne Horner and their four children have combined their talents to present this varied and beautiful display. Wayne, father in the family, seems to have always enjoyed sketching and painting. Although he operates the family farm he tries to find as much time as possible to draw and paint. Rural scenes from life in this area are what he loves best. Fredalene, wife and mother; had her interest in sketching encouraged by Wayne so that she now also paints whenever she can find the time. She has two stilllife paintings of flowers on display in the library. With both of their parents interested in art the Horner children have been encouraged in all their art attempts. Presently on display in the Children'S Room of the library is a collection of pictures done by 11 year old Kelly Horner, the youngest member of the family. This display shows Barry~Lawrence

how with practice and hard work through the years each chird has developed their skill. As Mrs. Horner says, "People think the ability to draw has been inherited by the children, but it really hasn'l. They have each worked hard learning to sketch and paint, all we have done is enco~rage them and provide the opportunity to develop." Kelly's pictures show her increasing skill through the years to a recent picture of a detailed and well done likeness of a Poodle. Sheree Horner will be a senior next fall in Cassville High School.

For in· stance, on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, the library issued about 300 books a day, a considerable increase from the average Qf about 200 books daily. A lot of mothers bring their school children to the library ahead of bad weather, Mrs. Rickman explained .
