News Around the Ozark Mountain Artists Area
Spring is nearing it's end, and local artists are hard at work preparing for the coming tourist season that began Memorial Day.
In June, the Newton County Chamber of Commerce puts on the annual Arkansas Elk Festival. Many of our tour participants exhibit at the Elk Festival. This year's exhibitors include:
Michael Dougherty, Compton Michael Dougherty is a wildlife and nature photographer from the west side of the county. His work is particularly focused on wildlife, but he also does landscapes, waterfalls, and other local subjects. Although he is a relative newcomer to the area, his work, particularly his elk photography, has sold many framed prints to both local residents and tourists.
