exeunt omnes Latin, literally 'they go out'. Used in theatre to indicate that all the actors leave the stage. The painting entitled Exeunt Omnes reveals the contrasts of Nevada. Best known for gambling and Las Vegas entertainment, the curtain is pulled back to reveal desert beauty beyond neon lights. The spotlight remains on a tropicana® orange to represent the Tropicana Casino, where we received the full "Vegas" experience without spending a cent. In this painting, Las Vegas is Nevada's stage. When the dancers exit, a meditative land of cloud shadows and silence are revealed. A vibrant desert, full of life and mystery, steals the show.
