we are so excited to now be representing the beautiful paintings of charlotte artist susan mcalister. hidell brooks has followed susan's work for years and her landscape paintings are a wonderful addition to the gallery. susan was born and raised in the hunt country of virginia and has been painting for over 30 years. mcalister received her ba from davidson college and she has studied alongside numerous acclaimed and professional artists including herb jackson and eric aho.
'lost time cannot be recaptured, but the sensual experience of that past is relived in the transcendent layers of memory which susan mcAlister recalls in paint and wax. following in the traditions of the diverse works of faulkner, gorky, mitchell, inness and bearden, mcalister’s works invite us into the landscapes of our own space and time.”
