Artist Not Hindered By Color Blindness Says Blair
Greenville artist Carl R. Blair a Bob Jones University art professor says color blindness helps him judge warm and cool relationships and enables successful abstraction. His nature oriented works have earned regional awards and sit in Southern collections. A separate report notes mayoral resignations and indictments of city officials in a federal racketeering case with bail set at ten thousand dollars for one defendant and others released. A related check payment for a reservoir contract was halted after arrests. Marcus was slated to lead a new environmental agency before the turmoil.
