Fishers Arts Council (FAC) presents the first exhibitions of 2022 with Taylor Walker in the Art Gallery at City Hall and Judy Mintze in the Alcove at City Hall.

A reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 14 at the gallery featuring live music by Jon Martin, snacks and adult beverages. The exhibit is open daily, except for holidays, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Taylor Walker’s exhibit, “Prismatic Brilliance,” is all about color and energy. She is a Fine Artist and Illustrator creating custom art that connects. She specializes in pet and family portraits, watercolor paintings, children’s art, greeting cards and encaustic paintings. She is known for her keen attention to detail and photorealistic renderings.

As an Enneagram 4, Walker says she is “a sensitive soul that thrives on creating emotional connections through my art, and I pride myself on my innate ability to fully understand and capture my clients’ unique needs.”

Judy Mintze’s work primarily focuses on abstract and figurative art. This exhibit is titled “Hats Off” and is a portrayal of women’s fashion and modern life. “My goal is to create representational figurative paintings with likeness as the priority,” she said.

Mintze says she wants “to express internal feelings and thoughts in my works. Something more elusive, poetical and imaginative in my work is my goal.”

Walker’s exhibit will run through the end of January and will also be part of FAC’s virtual gallery at fishersartscouncil.org/art-gallery-exhibit. Mintze’s exhibit will run through the end of March and will only be available in-person in the gallery.
