Lindsay Tise recently celebrated his 104th birthday and happily shares two of the things he’s loved most in life: his wife and golf. In fact, he credits playing golf for over 90 years with helping him reach yet another milestone birthday. Tise stated, “It’s been a big help to me both physically and mentally.”
The art form of portraiture has been around just as long as art itself. Throughout history portraiture has been used to uplift white monarchs, people of power, importance, and wealth. Louisiana-based artist Vitus Shell is challenging that tradition with his exhibit, “Vitus Shell: ‘Bout It ‘Bout It, The Political Power of Just Being,” which is on display at the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art (SECCA).
