Sidney D. Crosier For all of the unsung artists in the world there must be a common dream; at some point during their life or later, someone in the world will come to recognize and appreciate their talent. Well that is happening now to Sidney D. Crosier of Corydon, Indiana.Crosier was a promising artist, as a student he exhibited with the Art Academy of Cincinnati and the prominent art critic C.J. Bulliet was a fan. But unless you are a Corydon native, you’ve probably never heard of him.
