Linda Goodridge, who teaches art education, contributed a painting, “The Dance of the Sacred Pipe.” Two ceramic pieces by Deborah Ball ’05, “Red Shoe Series I” and “Cover Me” can be seen in the exhibition. Ball also assists Lenny Dowhie, professor of art, in the ceramics studio and is enrolled at USI as a special student. “Working Man’s Blues,” a pastel and charcoal drawing by Megan Neeley, a senior art and visual art education major, can be viewed in the exhibition. Sara Rhoades, a senior art and English major with a minor in art history, and senior administrative assistant in the Office of the Registrar, had two bronze and wood pieces accepted: “Fat Girl” and “Give Me Liberty.” |
