Lowcountry Artists Gallery presents Visual Poetry, an exhibit running from September 1st through 30th featuring pastelist Kellie Jacobs’ newest work. An opening reception will be held on Friday, September 2nd from 5 pm to 8 pm at the gallery, located in the heart of the French Quarter in downtown Charleston.

Admission to the opening reception is free and all are welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served and the artist will be in attendance.

Jacobs has spent her life watching the seasons change among the marshes and beaches of the South Carolina Coast. After graduating from the College of Charleston, Jacobs decided to pursue her professional career as a painter. Working primarily in pastel, she paints landscapes using atmosphere and light to create mood and expression in her art.

“I am fascinated with the light at the end of the day,” Jacobs said. “When the evening sun is low and warm touching the tops of the sand dunes and grasses of the marsh is the time of day I love best.”

Many of her works hang in prestigious corporate and private collections nationally and abroad, including Roper St. Francis Healthcare and Southeastern Publishing Company, Inc.
