PENCE GALLERY. Waltz of Life & Limb pairs recent sculptural paintings by artist Mercy Hawkins, with her vibrant, large-scale watercolors on paper. Her biomorphic shapes, formed of intersecting dots, dashes, and lines, speak to a sensory play of color, light, and movement. Her imagery evokes seed pods, flower buds, or microscopic creatures, immersing the viewer in an all-encompassing perception of nature. 11:30a—5p. Free

PENCE GALLERY. Danilo Campos is a Sacramento-based artist whose recent series of paintings explore his love of new places and experiences. His antidote to everyday routines is to go out and wander, whether it’s a new neighborhood, a new place, or campsite. His current series of work reflects his way of seeming to mindlessly go ‘out and about,’ but coming back with gems of resources. 11:30a—5p. Free

PENCE GALLERY. Interdisciplinary artist Gioia Fonda has long collected colorful toys, both for their intrinsic charm and as creative inspiration. As a student at California College of the Arts, she arranged small collectibles into still-life compositions and photographed them. Captivated by these arrangements, her advisor, Charlie Gill, painted spare compositions based on her photographs—works that now hang alongside hers. For this exhibition, Fonda has created a series of new paintings featuring similar arrangements of toys and found objects. 11:30a—5p. Free
