NorthLight Studios Artists Highlighted in May Magazines!Nan Davis' and Angela Alexander's art is featured in two prominent Asheville magazines, Asheville Made and The Laurel of Asheville. On newsstands now! Nan Davis' painting, is a commission for Delia Owens, author of the best selling novel, "Where the Crawdads Sing." Davis says her main job as a painter was "to communicate the emotions of the book". The book will soon become a movie, produced by Reese Witherspoon.
Angela Alexander is featured in the Laurel this month, for her generosity towards Mountain Pet Rescue, and raising funds through the sale of eight pet portraits. "Using my art to help save the lives of homeless animals is how I can make a difference." A variety of price points are available for each of the portraits.
Artist Highlights!Our artists are showing off many of their larger or just MANY of their paintings in our front window. Please enjoy the versatile styles and interesting displays.

We are totally kid and dog friendly, and we'd love to meet you and your friends and family. Take a few minutes to come and browse, meet all the artists, check out our paintings, get to know the artists, and cool off - we've got AC ;-) Time and again we hear "it's so interesting to be able to have the full experience - meeting the artist who creates the art we're looking at. There's no other place like this, ANYWHERE!" Depot Street also has two restaurants and a coffee shop, plus plenty of parking at either end, and street parking in-between. There's so much to see at NorthLight Studios - a little something for everyone. We hope to see you!
“It’s an interesting space, and was a thoughtful exercise to curate this exhibition,” says Wendy Whitson, artist/owner of NorthLight Studios. “The office for Premier Sotheby’s International Realty is set up much like a gallery, and the lighting is excellent. There are also furnishings, which help provide an ambiance of being in a home. Each artist has a distinct style, and this show proves that an eclectic collection of paintings truly can hang together very well.”
The open house will take place in Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s Biltmore Village location at 10 Brook St., Suite 130. Six artists, all painters, will be in attendance: Angela Alexander, Bill George, Bernadette St. Pierre-George, Nan Davis, Sandy Lear and Wendy Whitson. Beatrix Masotti, Managing Broker of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s Asheville location notes, “Premier Sotheby’s International Realty’s relationship with the arts is strongly rooted in our ties to the auction house, which has been uniting collectors with world-class works of art since 1744. Together, our companies are able to collaborate to provide unique and exclusive experience to a coveted and influential audience. This includes supporting local art and artists, which we have been doing here in Asheville since we opened our office three years ago.” The exhibition will run through October.
