Time, light and nature figure prominently in Melanie Scott-Dockery's work. The artist is showing an exhibition entitled "Then and Now" at the Joe McCauley Art Gallery at Heartland Community College. Though her work is continually evolving, Scott-Dockery relies on one constant: the ever-changing landscape in her own yard.
