April McDonald
There is a divine voice that tells us a story, and it beckons me to capture its presence on the canvas. It resonates all around us—in nature, in an empty building, and in the lives of people. It's in the fleeting moment of light, in the vibration of the atmosphere, and in the dialogue between colors. I desire to tell its story!

Terry Norris
The act of painting is a dialogue with nature, which I interpret according to an inner mood. The painting becomes a record of that experience, in which I seek out the universal qualities of balance and harmony to be found in nature and communicate to the viewer what is already known on some level but has perhaps been forgotten.

​I am a representational oil painter specializing in landscapes and still life. I paint extensively from life and refine my work in the studio using studies, sketches, and photos. My goal is to convey the beauty of everyday scenes through strong composition, expressive values, and color. I focus on capturing light’s changing qualities across times of day, seasons, and locations to create mood and depth in my landscapes.

Joe Craighead is a landscape painter in oil much of which is plein air. Joe has relocated to Upstate SC from Southern California and loves exploring new painting locations such as the Blue Ridge Mountains, Charleston, the local greens and epic cloudscapes that the Carolinas offers. Joe is also inspired by the fleeting light effect of sunset as well as the glow of night scenes and interiors. Joe also paints weddings en plein air.

Brenda McLean
I first became enthralled with pastels over 20 ears ago. I love their versatility and immediate nature. I most enjoy efforts to capture the color and light of the hills and lakes all around us. I have been doing plein air painting for only two years and the experience has enriched my view of our world and greatly informs my studio work with a new awareness.
