A selection of 15 abstract works, ranging from printmaking to watercolor and pastel, are on exhibit this month at the Robert Henri Museum in Cozad.

The works are by Doug Waterfield, chair and an associate professor in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of Nebraska at Kearney.

According to Waterfield, the abstract works represent a five-year exploration into pictorial symbolism, dealing with subjects ranging from the Last Supper, The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and the expressiveness of human handwriting. The works were produced from 2003-2008.

Waterfield has shown his work nationally for the past 25 years. Currently, he has work on exhibit at the Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas, Nev., and has a show of 11 paintings at the National Nuclear Science Museum in Albuquerque, N.M., now through December.
