In one museum, a program to be held in conjunction with their animal friends exhibit is where six local artists will demonstrate their individual approaches to animal painting. Every artist is required to create an animal theme painting in the museum galleries and then share information with the visitors pertaining to the style and techniques they used to capture the image and spirit of the animals in the paintings.

There was one female artist who came from southern California and before moving to her hometown in 1983 she took up art and watercolor. Her themes range from landscapes and floral studies to portraits of people and animals. Her style results from what has been called her rich and aggressive use of pigment and from her ability to push the watercolor medium into works of unusual size without sacrificing the brilliance of transparent watercolor, the director said.
