Through November 6, the city of Southlake and APEX Arts League are presenting “Animalia,” an exhibit showcasing different art pieces of animals by artist Charice Cooper, according to a press release. The exhibit can be seen in Southlake Town Hall or virtually via the city’s Public Art website.
“This year’s exhibit will look a little bit different than in years past,” says Southlake Arts Council Chair Miriam Murray in MySouthlakeNews. “But it was important to us to create the opportunity for everyone to be able to view the beautiful pieced Charice created in a way that was safe and from the comfort of home. These really are exquisite pieces and I hope everyone is able to enjoy them.”
Born and raised in DFW, Cooper worked in the corporate world before becoming a full-time artist.
“Left to my own devices, I return to what is near and dear to my heart, animals,” says Cooper in MySouthlakeNews. “It is my deepest hope to motivate others to action by bringing awareness to the immense challenges animals face, as well as provide a renewed appreciation of their existence by capturing their essence through the instruments of my craft.”
