Athens artist Jackie Dorsey will offer an artist talk in conjunction with her exhibition at the Lyndon House Arts Center at which the audience can hear about her plethora of watercolor portraits of musicians. The works are collectively entitled “Legendary Georgia Musicians in Watercolor.” From Big Boi of Outkast to Emily Sailors of the Indigo Girls to Mike Mills of R.E.M., Dorsey has created a show-stopping collection of many great Georgia musicians using photographs taken at sessions in her own home as well as sessions in the subject’s home or at a venue. This has been an extensive five-year process for the artist, and her exhibition will remain on display in the Upper Atrium Gallery until Sept. 1. Audiences can attend the artist talk to receive a first-hand glimpse into her creative process.
