| Overview from 2019 |
Lane Twitchell has been a longtime supporter of the Orchestra of Southern Utah. This fabulous drawing will be available at the Friday Soiree.
"Color Country Clan" enamel and pencil on paper in a two part configuration. 18" x 18", 2011.
This work is a drawing resulting from the artist's City Windows project, which produced a set of ornamental windows for a homeless shelter in New York City. It is part of the Liberty Island series of works, which bears the motif of a family of sea birds with The Statue of Liberty on the horizon. Its unusual diamond composition makes for a dramatic physical presence and hopefully it's color will add a note of delight to the home of an OSU benefactor.
Lane Twitchell is a Brooklyn NY based visual artist with deep connections to the artistic communities of Cedar City. From his Mother, Mary Dalley (Cedar High Graduate) he developed a great love of The Festival City. His Aunt Ada Carpenter taught at S.U.U. and was a department chair. Both of these Wayne County born ladies were related to Orien Dalley, their Uncle who was instrumental (literally!) in developing The Orchestra of Southern Utah.
Based on this love of the tradition of the arts in Southern Utah, and his pride as the great-nephew of Mr. Dalley, Mr. Twitchell has generously donated some works as benefit incentives for the OSU.
