New work by Amiri and Kathy Crowther are featured at The Four Winds Collection. Amiri's work captures the very soul of Gullah culture. His powerful paintings combine an alluring blend of vivid colors and layered textures that evoke images of Sea Island Gullah culture. He quintessentially captures the essence of a people who have preserved their African traditions of net making, basket weaving, quilting and bateaux building. Using Adinkra symbols subtly stamped into his canvas, Amiri brings forth the spirit of the West African ancestors who are known as the Gullah today. Empowering images and colors dance across his paintings in an energetic display of color while telling the on-going story of the Gullah people. Amiri has been exhibited in major museums and is displayed in permanent collections nationally and internationally. He received his Masters of Fine Arts from the Savannah College of Art and Design and is currently a Professor of Fine Arts at The University of South Carolina Beaufort. Other new work on display for The Spring Art Walk are new pieces by Kathy Crowther. Collectors and followers of this well-known Lowcountry artist will be happy to be reacquainted with her distinctive style that includes vibrant colors and use of detailed ink pen. Some of the artist's latest work contains the same subject matter of Lowcountry nature but with the subtle use of metallic paints and interesting stamping.Site Designed and Maintained by Vision Technology Management
