Carriage Ride on Church Street, Charleston SC

Pin It

A horse drawn carriage takes visitors down Church St in front of St Phillips Church in Charleston SC. This painting allows the viewer to feel like they are going back in time as they learn all about the full history of Charleston. My newest painting Carriage Ride on Church St, Charleston in transparent watercolors BUT even though it is in watercolors, it does not have to be framed under glass! I have finished it up with some special sprays and varnishes so it doesn't have to be framed under glass, just like an oil or acrylic!  No glass required!

Beach Sunset

Ocean Sunset

Still on the acrylic kick but just for a bit! After my last work with Wild Flowers, I really liked the colors and movement so I decided to work a bit with the same color scheme but with a sunset over water look. 
Ocean Sunset is acrylic on canvas, size 9.6 x 7 inches.
This painting is on view at Studio 151 Fine Art Gallery in Charleston.

Lowcountry Sunset, SC

Pin It


My latest painting, Lowcountry Sunset, SC is my version of the fabulous view of the Toogoodoo Creek and marsh across the way from where I live. The sun changes, then the water colors change, the birds fly and the marsh glows in the late afternoon sun. This version was created from the colors that magically appear in the late afternoons during late fall! I painted this scene with a limited palette of Cobalt Blue, Permanent Rose, Hansa Yellow, Hookers Green and Quinacridone Burnt Orange and on Arches 140lb watercolor paper.
Here is a photo though this does NOT do the actual view justice! But it is one of my inspirations for Lowcountry Sunset, SC.
