Abstract:

North Carolina artist Ben Long is a master of the ancient art form of fresco painting, one of the most demanding and unforgiving mediums in which to work. Long has painted frescoes in New York, France, and Italy, and over the last twenty years created a number in his home state. His newest work is \"The Return of the Prodigal,\" painted on a wall of the Chapel of the Prodigal at Montreat College.
