Alison Barbaron's Color Book for Kids of All Ages, Vol. 2 Aaron R Horrell

Aaron Horrell is a self-taught painter, nature photographer, and avid fisherman. Aaron is the owner of the Painted Wren Art Gallery in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. He also writes a nature column in the Southeast Missourian newspaper called, "Through the Woods." Barb Bailey is a painter and an amateur photographer. Her family raises dairy goats and Barb makes goat milk soap which she sells at the Painted Wren Art Gallery and two local farmers' markets. Together these Southeast Missouri artists create BARBARON minis, 6" X 8" mini acrylic paintings on Masonite. Starting with dip art, they take turns painting whimsical animals in interesting, colorful backgrounds. Friends suggested making a color book using their mini paintings and so they did. Both Aaron and Barb are members of the Arts Council of Southeast Missouri, Best of Missouri Hands, and the Cat Ranch Art Guild.
