“My strong belief in the importance of education and the love of my state is reflected in my series of South Carolina collegiate landscapes. I am a lifelong Anderson resident who has been an educator for over 35 years. I am a member of the Anderson Artist Guild and the S.C. Watermedia Society. My study of art includes a year at Wesleyan College and lessons under artists such as Pam R. Brown and Al Stine. I completed my education at Clemson after transferring from Wesleyan. Many of my pieces are landscapes and florals, and I also enjoy completing commissions of various subjects from large landscapes to mini works of special scenes.” - Wesa Neely, Artist
