Meet the artist 

Welcome to the website of Lowcountry Art by Cara . My passion for art was ignited during childhood visits to European museums with my parents, where I was fascinated by the numerous exceptional pieces on display. In high school, I received awards for my artistic achievements and was selected to attend the prestigious Governor's School of Arts. As a young adult, I transitioned to jewelry design, apprenticing under John Henry Whitmire at Whitmire's Fine Jewelry. Under his guidance, I developed skills in pearl stringing, stone setting, soldering, and jewelry crafting, supplemented by formal training from the esteemed Gemological Institute of America. I found great fulfillment in creating original designs and casting silver and gold sea life charms designed by the owner, which I would embellish with diamonds or sapphires. In my adult years, I continued to cultivate my artistic passion, producing abstract pieces showcased in various exhibitions across the southeast and New York. Notably, one of my paintings was featured as a headboard in a CSI Miami episode. Currently, having lived in the south for most of my life, my artistic focus centers on wildlife and nature I encounter on a daily basis. I then turn these magical encounters into inspiring recreations on canvas for the world to enjoy. I invite you to explore my works and look forward to seeing you at exhibitions. If you have any questions, please feel free to message. Thank you for visiting ,and I wish you a blessed day.
