We have a favorite local artist, Mac Rogers, who has a gift for capturing the beauty of Beaufort on canvas.
He is currently the featured artist at our local art association.
The above painting is of 'Secession House' here in town.
The gentlemen pictured are the individuals who met at the house on December 20, 1860 just before they headed for Charleston to sign the secession papers.
The above painting is of the 'Planter' gunship on the morning it was commendeered by Robert Smalls during the civil war.
He escaped to Union territory with the ship and then joined the Union in the fight against the Confederacy.
This painting is the marsh overlooking the Beaufort skyline.
A blue heron on Polowana Island at sunrise.
Sunset at Lands End.
Needless to say Mac has a gift for capturing the beauty of the Lowcountry.
