Mobile Bay & the Delta: Watercolor & Graphic Arts Society Show
January 2, 2011 by Susan Downing-White
“Mobile Bay and the Delta,” artwork by members of the Watercolor & Graphic Arts Society, will be on view through Jan. 28 at the Mobile Arts Council galleries, 318 Dauphin St. on Cathedral Square in Mobile, Alabama. The themed show is unusual for the Society, says member and officer Lynda Smith Touart.
“We began discussing it before the oil spill,” she says, “and after that of course it seemed all the more poignant. The spill has begun to cycle off the news now, but we mustn’t forget that the damage, loss and problems are still out there. All of us are greatly affected by the spill, so it seems fitting that we continue to keep it in the forefront of people’s attention. I hope this show will contribute to that.” The Artwalk reception will be 6-9 p.m. Jan. 14.
I’ll be contributing a painting to the show and probably working up to the last minute to finish a pastel painting that doesn’t yet have a title. Stay tuned for the image as it emerges!
