Painting creations by a Crawford artist are on display through July 22 at Mississippi State鈥檚 Cullis Wade Depot Art Gallery.
Free to all, the second-floor exhibition at the university鈥檚 Welcome Center features Mississippi landscape-inspired watercolor images by Frances Hairston. Scenes include wildflowers, rural buildings, fields and cotton.
鈥淕rowing up in the Mississippi Delta and now living in the Black Prairie, I have a deep feeling for the land and for the natural surroundings,鈥 Hairston said. 鈥淭his feeling becomes a part of my paintings.鈥
鈥淚 am constantly inspired with ideas of things I want to paint,鈥 she added. 鈥淓veryday objects such as the sun shining through waving stalks of Johnson grass or cows grazing in my neighbor鈥檚 pasture attract my attention and urge me to paint. As an artist, I want to lift the mundane to a new level, so that a viewer can find this same beauty and meaning.鈥
