Rotary pieces together artistic expression

As artist Justine Scott started her presentation at the Lake Ray Roberts Rotary Club on Sept. 2, she handed out small cards with images and letters sketched onto them.

For once, she said, she was asking the people before her to stay inside the lines for a reason.

“We are most potently alive when we’re using our hands, our bodies, our voices, to connect with our [surroundings],” she said. “When you’re singing in church, for instance; when you’re dancing two-step … with your favorite person, when you [paint], … that’s the kind of thing that makes me present, that grounds me.”
