Afternoon in McClellanville, 24x36 by Scott Moore
The gallery will proudly receive at least two-dozen new paintings with a show opening and reception during the January Gallery Row art walk on Broad Street, Friday, January 7th from 5-8pm.
Stapleton Kearns lives in New Hampshire and paints predominantly plein-air style, on-site in the elements no matter the harsh temperatures or dismal weather. He tells people, “If I’m awake, then I’m painting!” He also taught a 3-day workshop as part of his most recent stay in the area. He spares nothing in detail or time it takes to complete a perfect painting.
Scott Moore is best known for his unique architectural renderings. His downtown Charleston scenes are eye-catching, with vibrant rooftops scenes that lend extraordinary views of downtown, from the harbor and its striking Ravenel Bridge to familiar streets like Broad, Tradd and Cumberland. He also has a knack for capturing countryside charm, painting the cottages and dirt roads of the outlying areas around town. Scott hails from Maine and has been professionally painting for over three decades.
