MANSFIELD, PA- <\/strong>“Explorations of the Natural World,” an exhibition of paintings by William D. Hobbs, is now on display at the Mansfield University Loomis Gallery. The exhibit will run through April 15.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe content of my work is driven by my fascination for the natural \"finalEditedBillHobbsShowPoster\"<\/a>world,\u201d Hobbs said. \u201cAs both a trained biologist and outdoor enthusiast, my art is the product of many hours observing the world around me. Sketching and painting is another way that I explore the intricacies of nature. A common theme in my paintings is moving water \u2013 from rolling ocean waves to flowing forest streams and waterfalls. I also love to depict living, growing trees in all stages and seasons. Painting is a source of relaxation and escape. While painting, I find myself reliving my excursion into nature: hiking through a stream, wading in the surf or deep snow, climbing rocks, or peering through tree branches. The final painting is an expression of my explorations.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Monday, March 21, Hobbs will deliver a lecture entitled “Landscape Painting and the Hudson River School” from 3:30-4:30 p.m. in Allen Hall, Room 104.<\/p>\n

An opening reception will follow from 4:30-6:30 p.m. in the Loomis Gallery.<\/p>\n

The exhibit, reception and lecture are free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

The Loomis Gallery is located in Allen Hall, 135 Stadium Drive. It is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. and by appointment.<\/p>\n

The exhibit is sponsored by MU Art Acquisition and Exhibition Committee, which is funded by Mansfield University College Community Services Inc. (CCSI) and the Mansfield Foundation. It is supported by student activity fees.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
