What’s square about art in the Outer Banks? It’s a cool art genre capturing Outer Banks life in 12-inch by 12-inch paintings. Seagulls following the ferry boats, shore birds hunkered down on the beach, wild mustangs sparring in the sand, sea oats and dunes, lighthouses, folklore, even salt water taffy. Artists created works of art just for this show.
This square shape has a fresh look that fits any décor. It’s easy to mix and match, or group with other art. It’s a fun way to bring the Outer Banks home.
Seaside Art Gallery opens its Outer Banks Squared -The Art Show, July 1st. The show runs through July 29th, 2017. The show is available online now.
“This is a fun show!” says gallery owner Melanie Smith. “So many people enjoy the Outer Banks for its unique beauty. The art in this show is gorgeous, and people are saying it captures special moments they’ve had here on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.”
