The Cheryl
Newby Gallery |
The Cheryl Newby Gallery will be celebrating its 29th year in 2012. Visitors will find the gallery in one of America’s oldest and most scenic coastal resorts, Pawleys Island, South Carolina. Originally dealing exclusively in authentic antique prints and maps, through the years the gallery expanded its offerings to include fine paintings and sculpture.
Now, in addition to its large inventory of antique natural history prints and antique maps, the gallery represents a number of nationally and regionally recognized painters and sculptors. Among those represented is the highly acclaimed impressionist painter, Ray_Ellis of Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., and award winning sculptors Catherine Ferrell and Gwen Marcus.
The works of Sigmund Abeles of New York, a master figurative painter, and member of the National Academy of Design who grew up in South Carolina may be seen in the gallery, as well as works by award winning still-life artist Ellen_Buselli, and Donald_Holden, another member of the National Academy of Design from Irvington, NY. Paintings by the well-known regional artists Mike_Williams, Martha dePoo, and Paula B. Holtzclaw are offered. In 2010, we welcomed Glenda Taylor, a ceramic artist extraordinaire; and sculptor, Babette Bloch, a pioneer in the use of stainless steel to create monuments and limited edition works of art. In the antique prints and maps section of the gallery, one will find natural history prints and etchings by John James Audubon, Mark Catesby, John Gould, Prideaux John Selby, George_Edwards, Basilius_Besler, William Curtis, and others, along with antique maps from the 16th through the 19th centuries. The gallery boasts one of the largest inventories of hand colored lithographs in the country from the famous History of the Indian Tribes of North America by Thomas McKenney and James Hall.
