Yellow Crab Series

Yellow is one of the hardest colors for me to get right...so I decided I should start to use it more. I love the way these crabs include so many different colors, and really pop out.

November

Things are cooling down finally, and I can get back on the porch and paint in the fresh air! This is the second version of Dancing Shrimp I have painted this month. I enjoy the repetition of the lines in the shrimps' bodies. Thier shapes is almost as if they were meant to be dancing.

Bluffton Seafood Festival

5th Annual Bluffton Seafood Festival! Many came out to celebrate the bounty of the May River, and enjoy original artwork from over 100 artists. After some travel out on the west coast I came back to Bluffton with a renewed sense of energy. These shrimp reflect that energy in the loose and flowing lines. The colors I used are vibrant and fresh.

Marsh Scene

Today I finished my first painting of the marshes that I have grown up with my entire life. This is my interpretation of the fall marshes, and the gold leaf represents the autumnal sunlight reflecting off of the seagrass.

Sepia Oysters with Silver Leaf

These are the latest additions...the two oysters were painted as a set. Both are 18X20 Acrylic on canvas with silver leafing.

Mayfair Art...paintings and other stuff by Margaret Golson

About a year ago, I picked up a paint brush after a five year hiatus of pratically no creativity. Getting back into the creative mode has been a process, and I am loving every minute. Painting is my outlet. I hope that you enjoy looking at my art.
