Arthur Deatly:
In the Heights Hillery Community Gallery May 22 – July 10, 2021 In the Heights features the work of Houston artist and educator Arthur Deatly. This body of work includes plein air paintings of homes and Little Libraries in the Houston Heights neighborhood. Having embraced the genre of urban landscapes, Deatly's approach to the subject has evolved from panoramas to more intimate portraits of buildings and the neighborhoods they reside in. From street views to alleyways, he wants the viewer to feel the splendor of the day he felt while painting.
