October at The Artist Within

The Artist Within will feature artwork by two local artists during October. Thurman Grantham will showcase new sculptural pieces in "Thurman's World of Flowers", an exhibit of plants "from another world'. Grantham uses auto body plastic to create his unique florals and has displayed his work at F.B. Fogg and Art Works.

Yorktown native Brent Engelmann will display his digital photo collages through October. Several of his pieces are based on musicians from the past as well as some who are still performing. "Trippin' through the 70's" includes photos of rock legends Led Zeppelin, Cream, the Allman Brothers Band and the Beach Boys. Bob Marley,
B. B. King and the Rolling Stones are just a few featured in their own individual collages.

Brent explains that what he would like to do is to create custom digital photo collages for individuals, groups and businesses based on their own photographs or photos taken by him.
