Apple Pie Painters: Inspired by Honey Horn

The Coastal Discovery Museum at Honey Horn will feature the “Apple Pie Painters: Inspired by Honey Horn" in the Hilton Head Regional Healthcare Temporary Exhibit Gallery from May 8 to Sept 2, 2008.

The six original members of the Apple Pie Painters: Vickie Ebbers, Mary Kelly, John Norlander, Liz Rufenacht, Barb Snow and Peter Hadfalvi are celebrating their 10th year of painting together. Through those years there have been many transitions in mediums and styles. Now numbering nine, with the addition of Marilyn Dizikes, Judy McElynn and Alex Sharma 3 years ago; each of the Apple Pies used their own distinctive style, medium and materials to capture their personal impressions of Honey Horn and its environs. The exhibit ranges from Photos and Photographic Collage to Watercolor and Oil Pastel, whether it's Abstraction in Acrylic or Realism in an Oil Landscape the images transmit a personal interpretation of a time and / or place Honey Horn occupies in our community and its history.

The Museum's mission and our painterly focus is the every day beauty of our Lowcountry surroundings, its history and the inspiration we derive from it.”
