At the beginning of every fall semester, Angelina College art instructors pool together their immense creative abilities in a public display of some of their recent works.
AC’s Art instructors currently are displaying some of their offerings in a gallery scheduled to run through Sept. 21 in the Angelina Center for the Arts gallery on the AC campus. Instructors exhibiting their skills include Le’Anne Alexander, Reginald Reynolds, Jan Anderson-Paxson, Stina Herrera, and Denise Davis.
Ranging in various media from oil and acrylic paintings to video to photography, the collection is a testament to both the artists’ specific talents and overall experience in their respective fields.
