Editor's Note: This story was updated at 8:45 a.m. For the next five weeks, Heights Arts will display the work of two artists with no shortage of impressive work despite having no formal training. The David Mull and Martha Cliffel show kicks off tonight with a reception from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Heights Arts Gallery on Lee Road.
