Art Exhibited
In San Angelo
Works of former Coleman
resident. Mrs. Vera Willingham
of San Angelo were featured in
the January - exhibit at the
Angelo West Branch Library.
Entitled 'Ways With Weather
ed Wood", pieces in the display

components and other accessor
ies.
During the month Mrs.
Willingham was at the library
once a week to answer
quest ions and give advice about
her work. In an article in the
Ran Angelo Standard Times
luring January, Mrs. Willing
ham was interviewed and
pictured with some of her work.
Included in the exhibit was a
piece entitled "Fear in Africa"
which combined manzanita
wood and glyeerinized euony
mus japonica with cowed
figures from Kenya. Another
piece used variegated yarn and
leather thongs to hold weather
ed wood inside a wooden ring,
and is titled, "Leashed."
For her art project, she uses
things discarded by nature, of
no apparent use. and makes
arrangements to be enjoyed.
She explained in the interview
that this is a hobby men seem
to enjoy, and that working with
wixxi can be an educational
experience as well is a hobby.
Plant material used in her -
pieces show a total involvement
•in her hobby. Many of the items
. have plant materials from
foreign countries adding to the
uniqueness of the arrange
ments.
This hobby developed as a
spin off of Mrs. Willingham's
talent in flower arranging! She
is a national flower show judge,
a member of the Senisa Garden
Club, and associate superinten
dent of the Flower Show
Division of the Women's De
partment of the Stock Show.
She is on the District VII
Authoritative Speakers Series
and Texas State Speakers lists,
and spends much time travel

her weathered wood arrange
ments..
