George Netherton
St. Simons Island,
GA
“Growing up in New
York City, I was fortunate enough to visit many of the great art
venues with my ‘artist aunt.’ I was enthralled by places like The
Met, The Museum of Modern Art, The Frank Lloyd Wright Guggenheim
Museum, the Salmagundi Club, the Greenwich Village Outdoor Art
Shows, and numerous galleries.”
Although George
pursued a career in business, he always had a great appreciation for
the arts which was instilled by these early experiences. In late
1999 with a sale of his software business pending, George began to
pursue painting.
George was a
student of Chris DiDomizio’s in Atlanta for almost five years where
he learned to paint in the classical tradition. George went on to
participate in various workshops with many nationally known artists,
including Ken Backhaus, Kim English, Scott Christensen, Dee Beard
Dean, Perry Austin and the Plein Air Painters of the SE. George
also studied locally with Jean Szabo and Ken Wallin.
Since moving
permanently to St. Simons Island in January 2004, George has focused
on plein air landscape painting.

watercolors of architectural renderings. However, her interest in
