“Along These Lines” — An exhibit of acrylic and mixed media works by Sandra Spotts, through Sept. 28, Gotahold Brewery in Eureka Springs. “Along These Lines” is special to Spotts, she says, because it features a new direction for her creative work, one characterized by strong linear movement. Thematically, the works explore the “narrative about the various kinds of lines surrounding us, both figurative and physical. These lines sometimes guide us, sometimes inhibit us, and sometimes define us.” Email [email protected]
