Fine example of her work, "Night at the Lake" is polymer on cut board, having the artist original identification card from the 20th Irene Leache MemorialBiennial Exhibition, 1970. Signed and dated lower Right MFG 69. Gatewood was arguably the most important living North Carolina painter and considered by art historians, curators, museum directors and collectors as one of the most important painters in North Carolina history. Maud Gatewood's artwork is familiar to museum-goers throughout the South. She has been a prominent figure throughout the southeastern United States during her 55-year career. An astute student, her interest in art began as a youngster in her hometown of Yanceyville, NC, studying then in 1945 at Averett College in nearby Danville, VA. At the age of 16, after having skipped two grades of school, she entered what is now the University of North Carolina at Greensboro where she received her B.A. in fine arts in 1954. One year later, she received her M.A. in painting from Ohio State University. She continued her education as an instructor beginning in 1956 at Huntingdon College in Montgomery, AL, and then at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, TX. She then received a Fullbright Grant to study art history and painting at the Akademie Fur Angewandte Kunst and an extended Fullbright to study with Oskar Kokoschka in Salzburg, Austria. Her educational years were interspersed with traveling the world, that was the beginning of a life-long penchant, even at her death she was planning her next trip. In 1964, she returned to the U.S. where she joined the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and served as founding head of the university art department. She then went on to teach at Central Piedmont Community College before returning to her home, Caswell County, where she was a professor for many years at Averett University. During her academic career, she also served as a visiting professor and artist at the University of Cincinnati, Davidson College, and the State University of New York, Oswego. Ms. Gatewood was honored by her alma mater, the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, with an honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts in 1999. On her life's path of discovery in painting, Ms. Gatewood was awarded the North Carolina Federation of Women's Club Scholarship in 1953; a painting award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, National Institute of Arts and Letters in 1972; the North Carolina Arts Council Artist Fellowship in 1980; the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art NEAA Grant 1981; the prestigious North Carolina Award in Fine Arts (Governor's Award) in 1984; the North Carolina Poster Award Commission for the U.S. Olympic Festival in 1987 and in 1993 she represented North Carolina in the Absolute statehood campaign featured in USA Today and Newsweek. She exhibited widely in the Southeastern United States and was honored with a retrospective exhibition covering 40 years of painting, organized by the Weatherspoon Gallery of Art at UNC-G in Greensboro, NC.

- Bachelor TrekBy Nancy MerkleLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
This painting was inspired by the landscape of Central Oregon near Mount Bachelor. The mountain stands proud against the rocky foothills that surround it.About the Artist
Nancy Merkle;s process begins with a glimpse of color, a flicker of light, a pattern, or a texture. Elements swirl in her mind for hours, sometimes days, sometimes weeks before a design clicks and is transferred to canvas. With the canvas in front of her, she works intuitively -- a mark here, a mark there, a little touch of color, a bit of texture -- until she is satisfied and declares the work finished. Currently Nancy;s work leans toward abstraction; she doesn't paint the world as it is, but as she wishes it were. Bold colors and loose brush strokes are her goal. When she;s not making art, Nancy travels the Pacific Coast with a bicycle strapped to the car and curiosity in my back pocket. Fun Fact: Nancy lived in Alaska until she was five. She had bison in the backyard, bears at the landfill, and a moose who stopped by once in a while to look for sweet grass...Category21st Century and Contemporary American Realist Landscape Paintings
