Hooks-Epstein Galleries will present a solo exhibition featuring Otis Lumpkin. The exhibition opens Saturday, May 3, 2008, at 11:00 am. A reception for the artist will follow from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.

In A Painter's Poetry, Otis Lumpkin attempts to reach one's emotions surrealistically. He uses oils to paint his subjects, which can vary from fantasy to the humorous. After Lumpkin retired as the Dean of the School of Art at Angelo State in San Angelo, TX. he began painting again. He draws from his extensive knowledge of art history to create subjects for his compositions.

A Painter's Poetry will continue through May 31, 2008.
