The Ozark Gateway is excited to spotlight the incredible work of Arkansas artist, illustrator, and historian Craig Ogilvie — a native of Batesville whose illustrations bring our region’s heritage to life. Ogilvie’s art beautifully captures historic scenes like Spring Mill near Cushman, Arkansas, showing its place in our community’s story. His detailed renderings help preserve memories of this iconic landmark for future generations.
