Grayson County Historical Society Partners with Emerging Artist
The Grayson County Historical Society has recently announced a collaboration with Kaili Logdson, a recent graduate of Grayson County High School, to create art prints depicting historical buildings and landscapes throughout the county.
Expanding Historical Artworks
Kaili Logdson is building upon a collection of 15 historical sketches originally drawn in the early 1980s by the late Nancy Young Robinson and her first husband, Paul Young. In addition to expanding this series, Logdson plans to illustrate several other historic sites in the county—both past and present—that were not covered in the original works.
Upcoming Projects and Products
- Creation of new sketches of historic county locations
- Development of a coloring book based on her sketches
- Sales of sketches and coloring books handled by the Historical Society
All proceeds from these sales will be shared equally between the historical society and Kaili Logdson.
“The Historical Society is excited to partner with such a talented young local artist as Kaili, and work with her to further her artistic endeavors,” officials said in the announcement.
Artistic Contribution Spotlight
Kaili’s work includes detailed sketches like her rendering of the Green Mansion at Falls of Rough, capturing the historical essence of Grayson County’s heritage.
Summary
This partnership highlights a community effort to preserve historical landmarks through contemporary art, while supporting local talent and enriching county heritage.
