I here ya.........grew up in CT then moved South, then further South to S Florida, then West to Cali, then back to the South, then up to NH, then way South to the Virgin Islands and then back to the South here (notice the trend
) Oh and a few interesting interludes in between. Liberty is one of those quaint little Southern towns on the upswing with boutique stores, galleries, bistros etc all within walking distance; as my printmaking studio/gallery/ apartment is right in the middle of the square. 20 min to Clemson, 4 hrs to Charleston. 5 minutes to The Graphic Cow. Downside to the employment opp is no relo pkg. So if you know of any younger bucks or buckettes that are willing to see whats out there and just throw a tiny bit of caution to the wind as I did when I was 28 ys old then you will find a welcome atmosphere here.
And yes Brandt and Dave you are both right and thank you.......Although the sign on the door to Pastiche Studio will read "works on paper" there is a shiny new Hopkins in here that will need some attention to I believe at some point. I believe it can print on fabric as well!
Bless all of your hearts tp
