Cats in Hats — Opening Reception for Sydney Lemmon — The Kimbell
Fri, May 8, 2026
An opening reception for recent Texas A&M PVFA graduate Sydney Lemmon. A third-generation artist from Fort Collins, Colorado, Lemmon studied studio art and video game design at Texas A&M under Professor Felice House and spent four months painting in Florence, Italy. Cats in Hats explores the world of cats in little hats and the environments they inhabit — each subject carefully styled, capturing personality, humor, and perhaps a touch of discontent. The show also includes senior capstone work such as Evil Eyes and Mugged, paintings built on bold complementary underpaintings that catch the instant an emotion flashes through someone's eyes.
