Director's Gallery: A PORTRAIT, by Janet Dixon

Janet Dixon is a local artist in New Bern who typically works in watercolor and oil. She has participated in numerous exhibits at the Bank of the Arts and Eastern North Carolina. This series entitled A Vessel’s Outpouring uses collage paper consisting of Christmas cards, stamps and photographs to create dynamic images of the face of Christ. Each piece is designated by year and only consists of materials from that given year. Dixon hopes that viewers will engage with each piece and find something moving and meaningful within.
