Melanie Wood Show Opens at Smith Galleries

Smith Galleries is featuring a special showing of new oil paintings by Melanie Wood as part of its anniversary celebration. Mrs. Wood says, “As an eternal optimist, my joy for living infuses every painting with a vibrant, impressionistic style. Painting is the result of my lifelong journey into self-discovery and translating the delights I encounter, both commonplace and extraordinary, into a personal vision for others to enjoy. Working exclusively in oils, I strive to capture on canvas the energy and spontaneity that drive my love for each new day and fuel my imagination, whether it be violet haze over the Tennessee Smoky Mountains, the fields of Provence or courtyards of Sienna, poppies along a garden walk, or a red vase overflowing with sunflowers. “

The show opens on May 1, 2012 at Smith Galleries. The gallery is located in suite J11 of the Village at Wexford on Hilton Head Island, SC. Gallery hours are 10 -6 Monday through Saturday. 800.272.3870
