Out of Africa
Opening Reception: October 2, 5-8p.m.
The Lowcountry Artists, Ltd. is proud to announce this new exhibition featuring work by Rick Dean, Lynda English, and Jackie Wukela. Safari in Swahili means journey, and the journey Rick Dean took to Africa in the summer of 2008 where he and family and friends spent the first part of the trip by giving back-five days helping families and children at Living Water Children's Centre, a home for orphaned children. Many of his images are from this orphanage. It took an entire year to organize the thousands of shots taken during this wondrous adventure. "Who would ever think we would get to use these wonderful photographs? I want to paint them again and again," says Jackie Wukela. And she does, more than once and in different media. Wukela's work in watercolor, colored pencil and oil are all centered around the Maasai.

Opening Reception, Friday, October 2, 2009 from 5-8pm Lowcountry Artists, Ltd., 148 East Bay Street
