Gallery Chuma is glad to present Gullah Memories, an exhibition of new Acrylic on paper original paintings by famous artist Jonathan Green.

Jonathan Green has spent the past two years creating exquisite landscapes in Acrylic on paper, capturing his memories, reflections, and perspectives of the Lowcountry of South Carolina. All of these paintings were created from his sketches throughout South Carolina and painted in his studio on Daniel Island near Charleston. This will be the first time his Acrylic on paper paintings have been placed on exhibition for acquisition outside of his studio.

If you have been wanting to add a Jonathan Green original to your collection, these Acrylic on paper paintings deserve your serious attention.

He has been awarded doctor of art degrees from the University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC and the Coastal Carolina University in Conway, SC for his capturing and recording of Southern culture and history.

Some of the numerous awards he has received include The Elizabeth O’Neill Verner Award for Life Time Achievement, Columbia, SC - 2010; Key of Life Award --- NAACP Image Awards, Los Angeles, CA - 2009; Century of Achievement in Art Award, The Museum of Americas, Arlington, VA - 2003; Order of the Palmetto Civilian Award, Columbia, SC - 2002, and The History Makers Award in Fine Arts, The History Makers National Archives, Chicago, IL - 2001.
