The artist and the studio John Rankine 9/20/2012 Artist studios have always fascinated me.

Art Wall 8/1/2012
John Rankine 8/1/2012 Sometimes we are better off leaving things alone. Case in point – the new Art Wall. What was once an eclectic collection of 8 x 4 ft. art panels, beautifully lining the back wall of the Main St. parking lot, now looks something of an incomplete eyesore.
