A reception will be held on Nov.4, from 5-8pm.Work by West FraserDistinguished Southern artist West Fraserhas the soul of the South in his blood. Alove of the land is apparent in his paintingsthat evoke a true and honest sense ofplace. A master of the nuances of light andnature, his work is comparable to the finestof American and European Impressionistof the past. Nationally recognized, Frasercreates a feeling of timelessness in his workthat draws the viewers into his contemporaryexperience.This exhibition grew out of Fraser’s passionfor his landscape, the region his familyhas claimed as home since colonial times.The South Carolina and Georgia Lowcountryis a land of beauty, serenity, historyand diversity, which keeps her inhabitantsspellbound and seduces all who come to callit home. Since earliest memories, Fraser hasexplored her hidden places, both by waterand by land. He is one with her flora andfauna. A keen observer might find him atwork, knee deep in marsh mud with whiteibises feeding all around him, running underhis easel without a care. A “native son of theSouth” Fraser captures her soul in his paintingsthat make A Portrait of Place.For further information check our SCCommercial Gallery listings, call the galleryat 843/723-0073 or visit(www.helenafoxfineart.com).City Gallery at Waterfront Park inCharleston, SC, Features AnnualSC Watermedia Society ExhibitionThe City Gallery at Waterfront Park in by Florida artist Mary Alice Braukman.Charleston, SC, will host the SC WatermediaArtists selected for the exhibition in-Society’s 34th Annual Exhibition, on clude: Al Beyer, Ann Heard, Anna Schalk,view from Nov. 5 through Dec. 31, 2011.

It’s something youfeel and have to express. Having beenraised in the staid southwest corner of thestate of Washington, my life was isolatedfrom the broader world. As a teen, I firstheard the music of Motown…soul music.Soul music was an obvious display of pas-Corrigan Gallery LLC in Charleston, SC,will present the exhibit, Scratching the Surface,featuring new works by Lynne Riding,on view from Nov. 2 - 30, 2011. A receptionwill be held on Nov. 4, from 5-8:30pm inconjunction with the Charleston Fine ArtDealers’ Association’s Fine Art AnnualWeekend. This is her third solo show at thegallery.Lynne Riding expresses the vastness ofintimacy and a lifetime of notions of placein an abstract manner. Her manifestationof surroundings includes nature’s realty aswell as its concept. Creating stories of rootsin all senses – from whence she comes, literallyand figuratively – where she has beenand where she is – without concrete images,Riding makes a silent recording of placeand passage. It is portraiture in a broadsense. It comes from and takes the viewer toareas of deeper consciousness.sion and it expressed in word and soundwhat I felt about visual art. As I developedformally as an artist at the School of theArt Institute in Chicago, the emphasis wason figure drawing. To me the human formis the ultimate landscape. It carries undulatingcurves, sharp forms, and multiplecolors. “Visitors to the show will witness thepassion of soul music merged with the visualform.

I continue to develop a reductivepainting process, involving what to buryand what to reveal.”Riding continues, “As a result of aresidency during the summer of 2009, whencontinued above on next column to the rightTable of Contents I endeavored to find a way to incorporatemore of a sense of place into the work that Iwas making, I have experimented with the use of some natural material in my work.This recent work includes selected naturalmaterial specific to place. My work is concernedwith the ephemeral nature of whatwe call reality, aligned with the dichotomyof enduring hope, that, which drives humankindon...I believe that there is a validity orneed for the poetic in today’s world.”Work by Lynne RidingRiding has lived in Charleston for thepast twenty years and holds a Masters ofFine Art from the San Francisco Art Institute,a Bachelors of Art in Fashion - Textilesfrom Manchester College of Art, UK andan Art Foundation from Hereford School ofArt & Design, UK.Currently academic chair of departmentat the Art Institute of Charleston, she continuesto develop her own work.
