With “Inner Landscapes,” contemporary artist Ruth Hunter manages to brilliantly convey the connection between raw human emotions and the interplay of color and texture. Exploring the dreamlike world of the subconscious, Hunter brings that concept forward, using color as her catalyst, her work beautifully figurative. “I never work with an idea in mind, I just start to paint and let the color guide me. The stories develop as I work. It’s very much conversation between me and the painting,” she said.
…full of mood and emotion, beautifully executed.” Hunter’s exhibition coincides with The Island Writers Network book signing at Picture This Gallery from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and the island’s popular Gallery Hop, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, January 14th. “The evening seemed perfectly suited for an opening reception of Inner Landscapes,” said Mira Scott of Picture This Gallery.
Hunter will show 30 paintings, ranging from large canvases, to works on masonite, luane, and paper. “I love the translucent quality the wax gives the paint and the ability to build up layers easily. I can work continuously without stopping,” Hunter said. In Recurring Dream, the reclining figure is on the verge of change, according to Hunter, who explains her work as intuitive. “The golden colors beneath are symbolic of change and rejuvenation, while she is in turquoise, in flux between two worlds. The red over it is a strong passionate color. It seems as though the reclining figure has been here before. The title just kept insisting, as I was painting it. Even my titling is intuitive in that sense,” Hunter said.
The Savannah artist finds her palette turning more toward the reds these days. Having studied fine art in Dallas, Texas, she began her early career as a portrait artist, later finding her painting heavily influenced by the figure. Her work reflects the influences of colorists such as Mark Rothko’s color field paintings, with the sense that viewers can walk right into them, along with Marc Chagall’s dreamlike imagery, and Gustav Klimt’s disproportion of the figure. Hunter uses the figure to tell a story, emotions by color, the concept dreamlike. By Anne Feldman

Here is a great formula that helps your local community stay local and it is not too difficult. When was the last time you visited a local studio, attended a gallery hop or spent $50 in a local market or shop. These shops are the backbone to our tourism industry. So attend the gallery hop or this weekend enjoy the local shops. You will make a difference.
Have you heard about the 3/50 Project?
An amazingly easy formula designed to save the brick and mortar our nation is built on.
Here’s how it works:
Pick three locally-owned businesses you’d hate to see disappear, and visit them. Pick up a little something that makes you happy. You are keeping the shop in business today.
Commit $50 each month to supporting locally-owned businesses, shops or restaurants. If half of the employed in the US would do that, we’d generate more than $42 billion each year for our local entrepreneurs.
With each $100 we spend in locally-owned businesses, $68 stays within our community. Big box stores? Only $43. Internet shopping? You guessed it… nada.
It’s that simple.
Many of the boutique real estate companies are listing companies and not selling companies. Their company profile is typically 25% sales, 75% listings. Right now these companies are having difficult times because they carry a lot of inventory. They typically do not have the ability or people to sell their own inventory and rely on the MLS. My company and our production is closer to 50/50 with a strong focus on selling. In fact, that is how we personally finished up 2009.
No one within or outside of our company can provide you a higher level of service, better market exposure and better results than Jane and I. We are focused, we are positive and we can get agents to make a move. We also email all agents weekly on your property and push them to stay focused and make a sale (sometimes these agents need a boost to get the job done).
Jane Hyers and Robbie Bunting offer you the following advantages:
• Magnificent Communication
• True Focus
• Better Exposure/Marketing
• Great systems and work philosophies
• Results
The benefits to you include:
• More agents in your villa
• More Potential Buyers
• Shorter Days on the Market
• Faster adjustments to meet market changes
We know what we want and we work our very best to achieve it. I personally have been selling real estate for 25 years with Dunes Marketing Group. Jane Hyers worked for the Hilton Head MLS for 3 years before we started working together 5 years ago. We know the agents very well, we know the Island and we know real estate. Our relationship with Island Realtors is better and we are always pushing ourselves to become better. We want to create raving fans by helping our buyers and sellers succeed by providing exceptional service. We look forward to your inquiries.
We guage our business by our phone. The phone is ringing again and already this year we have sold 4 properties. Every indication shows that the pent up demand and consumer confidence will drive the market forward in the first six months on Hilton Head Island.
The market will most likely level off by summer, as we eat through some of this incredible inventory. We will have difficulty meeting demand in the under $400,000 price point for Hilton Head Island villas and homes by summer. As the market is building from the bottom up, we expect greater activity in the $400,000-plus market as more homeowners realize the stimulus is for them. In fact, the high-end luxury market has shown an increase over the last 30 days and we should see these sales steadily climb into 2010.
Below are the sales comparisons for 2008 and 2009 for Beaufort County. Although the year end totals are lower for 2009, it is clearly evident that the market has made the turn based on the last few months of sales and is building momentum.

A note from Mark Zoran:
As a Fire Fighter I see many issues daily the could be prevented or lessened, only if measures had been in place to monitor a person or dwelling.
Why? First many people today NEED these items, but they create a financial burden. Not only to the user but also their family. Some people may not need a medical alarm but have always wanted a monitored Smoke Alarm to speak for them when they can’t or are not home.
I believe that Fire Damage and Injury can be costly, preventing it shouldn’t be. So, with that said the alarm is FREE. What’s included? The base unit (about the size of an answering machine), an emergency button (worn as a pendant, wrist band, or a belt clip), and if requested, a Smoke Detector. Because of the nature of this setup, renters have an advantage. The system is wireless and does not require any permanent installation. So if you happen to move you can bring the alarm with you!
There is a monitoring fee that works out to about $0.83 a day or 24.99 monthly. (Many other companies charge between $35 and $50 monthly) This fee is Tax deductible as a medical expense and if the smoke detector is opted for, it may reduce Home Owners Insurance up to 26% in some cases (Please contact your Insurance Agent for details).
Obviously not everyone needs a Medical Alert System for their home, that is why we are offering the monitored smoke detector FREE as well. Many people have wanted a monitored smoke detector but were unable to justify the high initial costs incurred. Now people won’t have the worries of an initial investment.
This system may not apply to you. But how about your family, parents or friends. As we can ship these units anywhere, they don’t have to live in Beaufort County. It is my goal to supply all who want and need these alarms are allowed to have access to them. You can’t put a price on life safety. So I won’t.
Thank You

Technically Driven. Totally Easy. IT made simple.
There are only three reasons why a property does not sell. These reasons are condition, location and price. In today’s market you need all three to cause a sale(although price will always fix the other two). Kalyani with www.HomeStagingInParadise.com recently helped us take a home from a good first impression to a great first impression. Even if you are not planning on moving and just want a change, staging can provide a whole new feeling. For our seller clients we give Kalyani two thumbs up!
Here is a note from Kalyani:
I wanted to thank you for the opportunity to Stage your gorgeous new listing. Selling the home to the first buyer that viewed it after Staging is certainly a testimony to the virtues of Staging! We created a more universally appealing home that more buyers can visualize themselves living in. I am so thrilled to have been a part of the transformation.
As a previous Realtor I understand that Staging alone is typically not the only thing that sells a home. It is a combination of the expertise of the Realtor as well as the Sellers pricing their home to compete in the current market. This, in addition to Staging the home appeal to as many buyers as possible, helps to sell homes quicker and for more money.
When I went to the home to take my “after pictures” the seller told me that the home had been listed with another Realtor for an extended period of time before they listed with you. She was amazed that the other agent had never mentioned Staging especially in light of how quickly we got an offer.
Thanks again for contacting Home Staging In Paradise and I look forward to our next successful partnership!
