If you’ve wandered into the Art Gallery recently, you’ve seen everything from paintings and sculpture to videos and more by DVC’s art faculty.
Arthur Scott King, who organized this first show of the semester, said it is a great way for students to see what their teachers do during their time away from classes.  
Abstract and realism both have a place in the exhibit, with the works catering to a variety of interests.
“Julio,” by Jane Fisher, appears at first glance to be simply a painting of a man in shorts. But Fisher said she created it so people could “appreciate how unique every individual is.”
Michel Leonard’s, “Doppelganger,” is a mind-boggler with its apparent spontaneity, while Joy Broom’s “Specimen Box Wax Museum: Butterflies and Pheasants,” has a nature-oriented focus.
King’s piece, “Points of View,” contains acrylic pictures of birds in vibrant color, and was inspired by a “long curiosity from all things that fly,” he said.
The short attention span of birds really compares to how short a human’s attention span has become because of all the technology available today, King said.
Another piece of interest is Jerry Leisure’s, “Rabbit Redux,” which features a man’s head on a poll with a one pink, cartoonish rabbit ear.
The show includes more than 25 art pieces and runs in the DVC Art Gallery through Sept. 30. Gallery hours are from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
