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.

Rachel has spent the past 25 years studying, attending work shops and developing her skills as a watercolor artist.  She also has a love for oil painting and has recently been painting local landscapes and portraits.

Rachel's rich southern heritage has attracted her to develop a special emphasis in watercolors of architectural renderings.  However, her interest in nature has also come through in her work with many floral paintings and landscapes.  In addition, her skills as a watercolorist and oil painter are often seen in portraits which she is commissioned to paint. 

Rachel's talents as a skilled artist are widely known throughout the Southeastern U.S.  Her paintings are found in corporate, public and private collections.
