Lee Baxter Davis at the Meadows Museum of Art

This spring, two companion exhibits at the Meadows Museum of Art showcase East Texas artist Lee Baxter Davis, who rejected the modern American art scene of his youth to create fine-lined drawings about love, anger, and passion that prompted comparisons to the Christian mystics. In A Pilgrim's Sketchbook by Lee Baxter Davis (February 11—April 29), the museum will display twenty-two ink and watercolor works by Davis, from 1998 to present. Picture Show of the Mind: A Tribute to the Teachings of Lee Baxter Davis (February 11—April 23) features art by Davis' former students and protégés, from the self-proclaimed “Lizard Cult” artists of East Texas State University to today, revealing Davis’ indelible impact on their art. centenary.edu/meadows.
