Wendy Allen is a local artist who is obsessed with painting pictures of Abraham Lincoln in various artistic styles. You may have heard her Winter Lecture on our free feed. I was so moved by it that I immediately invited her to come on the show and she accepted without hesitation. Originally, we were thinking about meeting the next day until we realized the forecast said it would be 70 degrees. I, for one, wanted to be out on the battlefield, which I was able to accomplish. 

Check out her work at lincolnintoart.com or stop by her gallery next time you're in town and see it up close. The address is 329 Baltimore St. Make sure you call ahead to find out if it's open. 717-398-2561
