Local Art in Ocean Isle Beach

Local Art at a winery

Are you looking for local art. Its always amazes me the high quality of art you can find at the local level.

Ocean Isle Beach NC is a great place to live and vacation. Lots of great restaurants  attractions and beaches are located in the area. But if you are craving a new favorite bottle of wine there's also a great little winery located in the area named Silver Coast Winery.

The wines are great here, many award winning, I believe they have over 50 wines that have won awards at the prestigious Fingers Lake International wine competition in New York. So without, if you are in the Ocean Isle Beach area of NC this is the winery you should visit to find your next new favorite bottle of wine.

But I'm not necessarily writing this here to explain to you how great the wines are here. What I really want to let you know is my experience at Silver Coast Winery last fall. I had originally walked inside this establishment only to pick up the very best bottle of white wine. But I was soon surrounded by an awesome art display.

And I soon realized Silver Coast Winery is not just a winery in Ocean Isle Beach but it also serves as an art gallery. I was very impressed by the level of art work that was on display. I ended up staying for nearly two hours looking at the art and speaking with the artists who were present. I did end up actually buying a piece of art work to take home with me also.

The art I bought was by an artist name Ricky Evans. This guy loves history and the seas so many of his art works are centered around these topics. Ricky Evans has a fantastic collections of lighthouse artwork. Very pleases with the painting I took home with me.
