An exhibition of paintings by Tarleton State University Theater Professor Daniel Stone will be staged Feb. 10-28 in the lobby of the Lamar Johanson Science Building on the Stephenville campus.



The works, based on Stone’s interest in astronomy, feature paintings of nebulae and galaxies.

 

“He teaches theater, but I learned in the fall that he also enjoys painting,” said Jason Jacks, manager of the Tarleton State Planetarium. 

 

“He approached me about putting together a modest exhibit, and after seeing several of his pieces, I jumped at the offer.” 

 


A public reception and planetarium presentation in which several of Stone’s works will be displayed on the planetarium dome screen is planned for 6 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 11.

  

“Dan’s a Navy veteran whose inspiration for these paintings comes from his stargazing days as a country boy from Mineral Wells and being on a ship in the pitch darkness of the world’s oceans,” said Jacks.

 

The exhibition, reception and planetarium presentation are open and free to the public.
