Jo Williams, Denton, executive director of the Visual Arts Society of Texas, created an ornament selected for display on the White House Christmas tree in December and highlighted on Good Morning, America in an interview with Laura Bush. Representing the 26th Congressional District, the 9-inch glass ornament featured a Texas flag, bluebonnets and an armadillo. Jo studied with the late watercolorist and art professor Rob Erdle and curated his memorial exhibit, “Water/Color.”
