We had our first cold day in Charleston. I finished painting this beach scene just in time. I hope it will warm you up a bit.

Sherrie, the kid
Don't be fooled by the sweet face. She carries a paintbrush and will steal the likeness of your children. We call her "Sherrie, the kid" and she is part of the Hilton Head Gang, which is still painting strong.
For more information or possible clues to her whereabouts check out Sherrie’s blog:

Beware of Kelley
Watch out for this face. She has a personality as large as life and can suck the air out of her victims with a smile.
Our mugface leader describes her:
Kelley “MacGrins” MacDonald is the next notorious member to be sought. You may think her smiling face is harmless...until you see your smiling mug on one of her blogs. She waltzes in to a room, a beach, an event, smiling and acting all “I’m your friend” and then shoots at will. She doesn’t leave until she has captured every available smile. When ready leave the island...Suspiciously...her little red sports car was missing...she left Hilton Head in a newly acquired Jag shouting “Girls Just Wanna Paint!” She drove up the coast stopping along the way to visit accomplices. She has hideouts everywhere. Beware the smile...

Sallie Bee Stoic
I love the houses of Charleston. I've started a series called "Homes with attitude". I try to see the houses as my short legged dog must see them. I call this one SALLIE BEE STOIC. The renters told me that Sallie Bee owned the house and didn't have any money to do any "fix ups". The house stands stoic in the face of wear. She must have been a beauty in her day. You can see some other homes on my website www.jenniferkoachart.com

Week 4 of Mug shots featuring "MOI"
My cohort in crime wrote this:
It is week four and Jennifer “JLo” Koach is the subject of this weeks search. Her uncanny resemblance to ... well, you know who...allows her to weasel herself into otherwise unavailable venues. Before her true identity is revealed she assimilates herself into the situation and shoots at will. Jlo charms and disarms her victims. By the time they realize what is happening...it is too late...they are photographed and the subject of a painting.
She left Hilton Head Island surrounded by her entourage...She is definitely NOT “just Jenny from the block”...

Lemon Twist
Charleston is the second most popular place for destination weddings. I am a wedding artisit. I paint "on site" at weddings and paint portraits of wedding dresses. This young woman loved her rehearsal dinner dress as much as her wedding dress. It was fun to paint all the ruffles! What a figure, Huh?
