October 2026 Issue

The Lowcountry has a way of inspiring creativity. Maybe it’s the light dancing across the water, the colors of the marsh, the rhythm of the tides or simply the abundance of creative energy that seems to live here. Whatever the source, artistic expression is everywhere, and it takes countless forms.

Welcome to our seventh year of Lowcountry Originals, where we celebrate women who turn inspiration into something uniquely their own. This year, we introduce you to five talented local artists working across a wonderfully diverse range of mediums. Their stories, styles, and creative processes may be different, but they share one thing: an irresistible need to create.

So, turn the page and come along as we step inside their creative worlds—and discover the women, their ideas, and the inspiration behind their art.

Turn the page to take a colorful, creative stroll into the local art scene of the Lowcountry. >>
