a repetitive type of design.
The surfaces of the canvases
exhibit the appearance of having
been carefully and thoughtfully
worked. Objects have been attached
to several of the paintings in low and
high relief. An entire book in
Chinese has been affixed to the sur-
face of one piece.
“The book is an old Chinese
newspaper that I found,” Lewis said.
“I’m interested in the design of the
Chinese imagery, the calligraphy of
the brush.”
Silhouettes reminiscent of cow
skulls and horizontal lines of rings
serve as a motif which threads its
way through the body of the work.
There is a palpable sumptuousness
to the rich floral scenes.
Lewis said that the skull shapes
are actually the outline of an old
birdbath that he had found and pro-
jected onto the canvas. He said that
he thinks of the rings as portholes
through which he observes the phys-
ical aspects of the work.
“The fields of rings and surfaces
of the paintings are very laborious,”
Lewis said. “I’m building from
them; they’re like a bunch of
thoughts.”
He said he .was concerned with
the design in many of the paintings
and that he worked with color on an
intuitive level.
Lewis added that the paintings
were so new that he was not sure
about the overall meaning of them.
He is using them as a means to
explore the medium and his own cre-
ative process.
The exhibit will be on display
through Oct. 23. Gallery hours are 8
a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Monday through
Thursday and 8 a.m. until 12:30 p.m.
on Fridays.

The Women’s Center of
Southeast Texas, located in the
Institution of Technical Arts of
Lamar, assisted 900 students
between July 1990 and August
1991 with financial aid, skill devel-
opment, job preparation, job refer-
rals, day care, counseling and many
other services.
Nancy Davis, project director of
single parents and displaced home-
makers of Lamar and acting direc-
tor of the center, said, “The pur-
pose of the women’s center is to
raise self-esteem and help women
feel they can get the jobs they
want.”
The Women’s Center offers
study groups and support groups to
help women with classes and per-
sonal problems.
Tlitors for all majors are avail-
able at the study group, which
meets Tuesdays and Thursdays
from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. at the
Technical Arts Learning Center.
Support groups meet every
TUesday at noon at the Women’s
Center.
“The support group is a confi-
dential meeting where women
interact and help build each
other’s confidence,” Davis said.
The center has a 24-hour tele-
phone hot line, 880-8995, for
women who need counseling or
information.
“When a woman calls me, I try
to set up an appointment with her
and then discuss what she needs.
Then we work out a plan and set
goals and work towards getting
those goals,” Davis said.
Gail Blackman, a freshman pur-
suing a bachelor’s in nursing, said
the center has given her a lot of
confidence.
“Nancy made me comfortable,"
Blackman said. "The first time I
talked to her, I knew I could do it.
She built up my expectations and
kept them there.”
Blackman is employed through
the center’s work experience pro-
gram and is learning to use type-
writers and computers.
“They are training me so I can
do something other than sweep
floors and wipe off tables while I
work on my degree.”
Connie Coch, a sophomore, is
another student who has benefited
from the Women’s Center.
“I would have never started
without Nancy,” Coch said. “She
helped me with my applications for
school and financial aid.”
The Women’s Center is located
in 216 Cecil Beeson building.
