Art from our Readers
Although our magazine is county based, like most things on the internet our
magazine is available anywhere the internet can take it. We encourage
readers from everywhere to submit their photos of their art and writings. Art
has been created since time began. Art is universal. Every society and every
nation enjoys art, and creates art.

Kris Helmick

I live in Aiken, South Carolina with my wife Cindy for the past 19
years. We lived in her hometown of Annapolis, Md. before that. I had
a military family growing up so I got to travel some. I have made
sculptures out of old tools and car parts for the past 30 years, but
about 4 months ago I stopped putting off trying my hand at painting,
and was as surprised at the results as my family members were.
Don't put things off till someday and don't be afraid to try new things!
