Yellowhouse Gallery: Creative Coastal Arts
|
OPEN FOR 2012
Tues - Sat, 11 a.m. - 5 p.m. or by appointment
Come Memorial Day, we will be open seven days a week: Mon-Sat, 11-5 and Sun, 12-5.
As always, the artists we are so grateful to represent spent the winter as we did...being wonderfully creative so that we have new coastal art offerings to share with you in photography, original paintings, giclees and prints. For 2012, we also are welcoming two photographers whose work is new to Yellowhouse: Matt Gibson (winner of this year's Beach Book Cover) and Dan Beauvais (with amazing aviation photography).
Beloved artist E. M. Corsa has a new Sea Dragon print, to commemorate the year of the dragon. Each print includes a unique, original remarque. (See her artist page for one example.) More new prints, new cards, and a changing offering of original watercolor with collage paintings round out her new offerings for 2012. SEE HER ARTIST PAGE FOR TWO EXCITING UPDATES: FIELD SKETCHING INSTRUCTION AND HER BLOG!
Judith Bailey has a new collection of original paintings in oil, pastel, and acrylic. Rick Nilson's original oil paintings include pelicans, crabs, and local scenes.
Artists Linda Browning and Stephanie Kiker represent the Outer Banks they know and love in very different styles; check out Linda's exquisite photo composites on canvas as well as her landscapes and seascapes reproduced as giclees on canvas. Stephanie's colorful graphic designs simply pop on her new aluminum panels; these are ready to hang and don't ever need framing. Diane Luke continues to depict the horses she loves so well with simple grace and beauty. K. Yen Fine and Bettye White have both brought us new work for the season in watercolor. Emily Terrell's colorful creations combine her twin loves of the sea and the garden; look for new tiles of Emily's this spring.
We feature the largest collection of local photography on the Outer Banks. And all of our long-time photographers, from gallery owner Eve Turek to Ray Matthews, Scott Geib, and Karen Watras, have new work created this past fall and winter to share. You can keep up with Eve's new work by reading her blog (link is on her artist page on this website.) Allison Byrd continues to share her underwater photographs while Brian Horsley shows us his photographic perspective on the fishing life.
Other artists who were new to Yellowhouse within the past year or two have returned for 2012. We're honored to represent Sharole Ewing's acrylic original seascapes, shorebirds and gulls, and a line of giclee prints. Rick Nilson's colorful pelicans, crabs, and local scenes catch the eye and the heart with vibrant, painterly enthusiasm. Deborah Hershey offers mixed media originals and prints that incorporate the wisdom of the ages with her fine artistic eye. New this year from Deborah is her signature mixed media work--but in glass!
Speaking of glass, be sure to notice Sue Fagan's stained glass "Whirls" as you come into the gallery. They compliment perfectly our new entryway.
Nags Head-born potter Gibbs Baum (now living in FL) has wave-formed bowls in our new front display case as well as large soup mugs. Debra McCommons-Martin has brought reproductions of local scenes and places in a variety of media. With more than 50 artists represented, we have much more to tell you...but we'd much rather show you!
Local and regional artists have created most of the artwork within the gallery. We do represent some other artists whose work we have come to love over the years as they love our Outer Banks, although they may not be able to be here fulltime. And we do have a small collection of posters or small prints that are beach-themed but not necessarily local.
ANTIQUE PRINTS ON SALE!
In keeping with the gallery's long tradition, we still have an extensive collection of antique prints and antique maps. In this, the 150th Anniversary Year of the Civil War battle of Roanoke Island, history buffs will find our extensive collection of authentic, original Civil War engravings and maps especially timely. Be sure to see our other antique prints including natural history birds, botanicals, ferns, butterflies, and shells. We have antique maps from all over the world, including maps from the official Civil War Atlas; we have wood and steel engravings from around the country dating from the mid-late 1800s, and we have a substantial collection of Winslow Homer and Thomas Nast wood engravings. All of our genuine antique prints and maps, whether framed or unframed, are being offered at a 30% discount this year, as we acknowledge the reality of a recent dip in the values of antique prints nation-wide.
We're sure you'll find a treasure at Yellowhouse!
If for any reason you find that the artwork you've taken home, ordered online, or purchased for a gift, does not work for you, you may return it for a full refund or credit--whichever you prefer--within 30 days of purchase.

| Come See Our Fresh New Look For 2012 |  |  | We love to renovate during the winter...this year Pete and his son "Pete the Younger" have outdone themselves. We have a whole new entry, complete with tiled floor, new front door and new windows, and beautiful wainscoating; a new custom-built glass-topped front counter; level floors (!!) which have been mostly carpeted for additional insulation...beautiful arched doorways throughout the gallery...All the custom carpentry was built by little Pete (his company is Firestop Graphics for those who want to know more of what he can do). New slatwall in several rooms helps display our contemporary collection of local photographs, paintings, and prints to best advantage, along with new lighting throughout the gallery.
Our antique prints and maps are beautifully housed in the room that is still original to the 1935 cottage with its wide paneled wood walls, wood floors, and stone fireplace. |
