This April, Art League of Hilton Head showcases abstract art three ways in Abstract x 3, an exhibit of work by local artists Rose Cofield, Jennifer Rocco Stone and George Watson. Inspired by the use of bright colors and textures, women’s interior emotional landscapes, and the free-flowing shapes of blown glass and handmade pottery, the works by Cofield, Stone and Watson show three very distinctive points of view.
A very special gallery exhibit has been created by Diane Britton Dunham and Natalie Daise to celebrate What it Means to Be Free: Art of Women of Color. The art exhibit is inspired by The Room: Stories and Songs for Free Women, by Sara and Natalie Daise. It features the work of women of color, exploring the meaning of "freedom" in different mediums.
Art League welcomes featured artist Kendra Natter, whose show Photographic Journey of the Lowcountry is a reflection of Natter’s ever-evolving photography and digital arts. Natter is an active board member of the Camera Club of Hilton Head Island. The natural environment of the Lowcountry has been a regular theme of her work.

Students of all levels create 3 landscapes in 3 days.
Landscape artist and guest instructor TJ Cunningham will be teaching "Landscape with a Limited Palette" for three days, February 17-19, at Art League of Hilton Head. Instruction will center on creating compelling landscapes with just the three primary colors (red, yellow and blue) plus white. "With fewer color choices comes greater creativity, allowing the student to focus more on composition and abstraction," says Cunningham. "The limitation is also a great framework for learning how to mix color."
