The Gallery at Sweetgrass, located within the Sweetgrass Plaza at Wild Dunes Resort, recently announced its 2023 Resident Artist, Hayden Wilson.
Each year, the Gallery showcases local, regional, and nationally recognized artists that celebrate the beautiful and natural surroundings of the resort's coastal locale in their works to the Isle of Palms community and resort guests.
As the featured Resident Artist, Wilson will be creating in the Gallery's studio space, capturing the scenery and technicolor of life on the coast.
“The intentions of my paintings are to celebrate the various textures, colors, and spaces of a local scene by incorporating intense saturated colors and strategic marks; the captivating works combine the highly technical with the naturally organic,” said Wilson. “I invite viewers to consider the possibility that naturally existing colors evolve and are experienced on a wider spectrum depending on lighting, setting, and mood. I strive to make the quiet areas where colors collide have their own exciting moments.”
A South Carolina native, Wilson received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Clemson University with a focus in oil painting.
An opening exhibit and welcome reception will take place Saturday, January 28th, from 5 pm to 7 pm at the Gallery at Sweetgrass. To learn more, visit: The Gallery at Sweetgrass
