THOMAS BEAVER

After moving to South Carolina nearly two decades ago, Thomas Beaver began painting the Lowcountry landscapes of his new home and the scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains, both of which inspired his budding talent and ignited a passion in him to create. Over the years, he passed that passion on to others in the art […]

GEORGETOWN ART GALLERY

Founded in 1997 by a small group of local artists whose objective was to create a place to display their works and network with other artists within the community, the Georgetown Art Gallery (GAG) is Georgetown’s only cooperative gallery. The gallery represents 20 local artists, filling the space with an exciting and remarkable selection of art […]
ELEANOR PARKER FINE ART

There’s a subdued quality to Eleanor Parker’s paintings of the Lowcountry landscape and its marshes, a hushed sense of tonality and moodiness that does not rely on bold color to create effect. “I’m drawn to how the light changes everything around it,” says Parker, who has lived with her husband on Shem Creek in Mount Pleasant […]
WILLIAM R. BEEBE

William R. Beebe and his wife feel blessed, celebrating the fact that his 30-plus-year art career landed them permanently in Charleston. He found the local art scene to be most welcoming and joined the Charleston Artist Guild. Then, Mary Martin Galleries discovered his artwork and represented Beebe for a number of years. Now, he sells exclusively […]

Charleston Artists Guild

THE Charleston Artist Guild (CAG) was founded in 1953 by a small group of local artists, including Anne Worsham Richardson, Alfred Heber Hutty and Elizabeth O’Neill Verner—all of whom sought a way to display their works, network with other artists and become more involved in the community. More than 70 years later, CAG has approximately […]
Debra Paysinger

Debra Paysinger’s master’s degree in biology has informed her subject matter, as she primarily paints birds, lures, sea life and rabbits—or the raddits, as she endearingly refers to them. She owns the registered trademark for the term “the raddit” and each whimsical creation is uniquely numbered within the painting. Paysinger assigns a not-to-be-repeated human name to […]
TINA MAYLAND

Like many artists, Mayland’s professional life took her on a path that was more financially driven than creatively satisfying. The ninth-generation Charlestonian spent 37 years in a high-tech career that took her away from home before she moved back to start an “encore career” as a full-time artist. Mayland’s work is largely impressionistic and deeply […]
HUTTON + HOME

While Hutton Snellings Scheel may not have had the most conventional style of painting when she picked up a paintbrush in middle school, her art teacher saw the potential in what ended up on the canvas—and that abstract point of view has been the secret to her success as a professional artist. In the interest of […]
