preface to Touching the Land Exhibition
The Mona Lisa, with her alluring eyes, grips your attention when you enter the front doors of the Dougherty Arts Center (DAC). In fact, there are eleven Mona Lisa paintings by Kelly Reider enticing you to explore this longtime community gallery at 1110 Barton Springs Road. The Mona Lisas’ expressive faces and the earthy background landscapes set the tone for the Touching the Land exhibition. All artists from Imagine Art have contributed to this effort.
The Touching the Land exhibition comes together at the DAC on December 14, with an opening reception from 6-9 p.m. It’s an opportunity for the public to view the art and visit with artists, and better understand Imagine Art’s mission and goals for the future. That day celebrates the artists’ unharnessed creativity and the passion they have for creating art. The true nature of Imagine Art is brought to the public's eyes through drawing, painting, ceramics, and mixed media.
