Vivid colors on big canvases, painted en plein-air, depict artist Laurel Gibson’s vision of San Antonio. Gibson’s paintings provide an insight into her depths, showing both the scene and its sensory feelings. As an educator, Gibson believes that art is a vehicle of expression when words and actions are not possible. The artist sees her paintings, embroideries, and ceramics as a reflection of her mind’s ambition; a means to find enlightenment in an imperfect world.

The exhibit will on display through August 27.
