release by OMAM. Additionally, her works are in private collections throughout Florida and the southeastern U.S.

“I feel my paintings evoke discovery, emotional involvement, and intellectual stimulation," Slick said. "My paintings hint at written messages, but on closer inspection the letters aren’t real letters, the words aren’t real words. Like the surfaces from which they are inspired, the viewer is invited to sense, experience, and interpret. Today a selection of my work is present from beginning to end. It is for you to decide if it was a worthwhile journey.”

Slick's exhibit will remain on display through April 24. OMAM is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Saturday, and 12-4 p.m. on Sundays. A $2 donation is suggested for admission, with free admission for museum members and U.S. veterans.
