William Baldwin

William Mccullough, Southern Painter, in Conversation with William Baldwin, Southern Writer

With an artistic appreciation for the world surrounding him that springs forth from each inspired brushstroke, realist painter William McCullough has produced a truly remarkable body of work in his celebrated forty-year career. From a stately stand of plantation oaks awash in the stark light of dusk to the weathered boards of a Charleston single house shaded by palmettos, McCullough captures as no one else the quiet grandeur of his diverse subjects.

This enthralling new book features an extraordinary selection of McCullough's work, coupled with a conversation between the artist and writer William Baldwin?two of the most creative contemporary Southern minds. Differing in medium but strikingly similar in perspective and approach, these two keepers of a region's artistic tradition offer unparalleled insight into the dynamic of the South.
