Marion Harvey Carroll l Primary Medium: Photography
I've loved photography since I was a small child and saw the faces come to life in the upstairs bathtub, courtesy of my physician dad. It was magic.
Reflections in water, geometrical lines in nature and architecture, and the interplay between light and shadow are some of the themes that intrigue me today as a photographer.
My modus operandi is simple: I search for a view that interests me. It may be a sea turtle on a beach in Hawaii, a white bridge in a forest of autumn leaves, or a rustic Buick at a western trading post. Whatever the subject, I peer thought the viewfinder and try to see somethign new.

Liz Cox-Smith l Primary Medium: Watercolors
About Liz: I have a Bachelor of Art from Meredith College in Raleigh, NC and a Masters of Education from Clemson University. I retired as D.W. Daniel High School's art teacher in 1986. I was also an adjunct professor at both Clemson University and the University of South Carolina.
I have won several honors and awards, such as South Carolina Teacher of the Year in 1976, the Elizabeth O'Neil Verner Arts in Education Award in 2003, and Best in Show at Blue Ridge Arts Council 2007. I've co-exhibited with my son Jed Smith at the Pickens County Art Museum and had a solo show at my Alma Mater, Meredith College.
My principle medias are watercolor and mixed media, and my favorite subject matters are figures and seaside.
I participate in many watercolor workshops, and have led several for SCAEA and NAEA.
As Michelangelo said, "I am still learning." Becoming an artist is an ongoing, lifelong process. I am engaged in the process by looking and seeing, keeping a sketchbook, and continuing to paint and enter juried shows.

Ann Heard l Primary Mediums: Watermedia using Watercolor and Acrylic
The content of my paintings represent my personal signature – a unique, distinct view of experiences, environment, philosophy, spirituality and much more. Hopefully, the viewer will find something interesting and intriguing in my works of art.
Since early retirement from a career in laboratory medicine, I have fulfilled my lifelong dream of painting. From the laboratory to the studio, the experimental processes have continued using all avenues of water media. I want to capture the viewer's attention with emotional drama, brilliant color and textura as unveiled in my paintings. To God I give the glory.

Ruth Hopkins l Primary Medium: Watercolor
I see in realistic shapes and perspective, but I often enjoy choosing more expressive color options. Variety is important to me, in what I paint, how I paint it, and what surface I choose, or what other watermedia I include.

Deane King l Primary Medium: Oils
Painting is all about the process – mixing colors and applying layers of paint to the canvas. Subject matter is inspired by places and things, emphasizing composition and color in the finished painting. An artist has an emotional connection to a painting, but it's important for the viewer to respond in a cognizant way.
Deane is a graduate of Greensboro College with a degree in art education. She is former art teacher in public school and private classrooms, and has studied painting with several nationally acclaimed artists.

A love of color and a desire to create something that is enjoyable to me and others is my inspiration. Art gives me a focus for life experiences and it helps to crate a balance and harmony in an otherwise chaotic world.

Nancy Perry l Primary Mediums: Acrylic on canvas, Oil pastel on paper
I love the process of painting and trying new things. My process is very intuitive starting with an idea and then going with what is happening with the painting and seeing where the conclusion leads me. I am inspired by nature and the landscapes around me, and expressing the feeling of the area is the important thing to me. In the past few years, I have been drawn more to an abstract and non-objective way of painting and combining drawing with painting.

Diann Simms l Primary Medium: Watercolors
The process of creating a watercolor painting is a fulfilling experience. The pale colors of the underpainting coming slowly out of the white paper flowing toward the finished painting was after wash is extremely exciting, stimulating and relaxing - all at the same time. With my paintings I find that by incorporating in with watercolor my subjects are more clearly defined, and then as a bonus the harmonies, shapes and rhythums found in nature, and even architectural subjects, become more emphasized.
