Murray State University鈥檚 Waterfield Library will host an exhibition of paintings by students in Painting II-Painting VII courses.

MURRAY, Ky. 鈥 Murray State University鈥檚 Waterfield Library will host an exhibition of paintings by students in Painting II-Painting VII courses. The exhibition will be on view in the Waterfield Library Gallery space from Nov. 22 鈥 Dec. 6.

Jessica Fife, visiting assistant professor of painting, organized the show of oil paintings for her students, but left the students in charge of selecting specific pieces from their series of works to include in the exhibition.

鈥淚t鈥檚 imperative as an artist to find your voice, create a series of work, and exhibit that work,鈥 said Fife. 鈥淭here are so many benefits (of the exhibition process), from having a deadline to creating an artist biography. The Waterfield Library Gallery is a wonderful space, and I am very excited to have the students show their work there.鈥

  • Bethany Burbage, junior from Nebo, Kentucky

  • Brooklyn Burnett, senior from Louisville, Kentucky
