Art exhibits in Newnan

A new art exhibit is opening at the McRitchie-Hollis Museum, 74 Jackson Street in Newnan.

Tiffany Thomas’ new solo art exhibit, SPECTRUM, will feature a variety of oil and acrylic works on canvas, as well as a mix of plein air, still life, and vibrant abstract paintings. All of the artwork will be for sale.

Tiffany Thomas attained a bachelor’s degree in fine art from Valdosta State University in 2008. Then she chose to grow her artistic roots in Newnan and started her own custom art business several years ago.

Her art is colorful and energetic with bold brush work, and she uses a variety of subjects as inspiration to move paint across a canvas. She shows her art regionally and has art in private collections across the United States.

Also opening this week is “Coweta County Remembered,” a selection of historic photographs from the vast NCHS image collection that will be on display to highlight Coweta County’s past. The images will be grouped by theme, including education, agriculture, and industry.
