GOING COASTAL

Visit the Gallery at Nutmeg & Co. to view and shop the works of some of the Caribbean’s most prolific artists. This Seaside and Coastal edition features two artists, Antoine Chapon and Shari Erickson, both of whom take you on a journey through their eyes and right into the region: its geography, history, and heritage. Their common subject? Local boats.

Shari Erickson is an American contemporary artist whose original Caribbean oil paintings are reproduced on stretched artist’s canvas. Her extensive travels in the West Indies and Leeward Islands depict corners of these island paradises in vivid colour. Shari has spent countless days and years understanding local life, society, and history.

Born in Bordeaux, France in 1952, Antoine Chapon sailed to the West Indies in 1981 and settled on the French island of Saint Martin in the tiny village of Colombier. Since 1995, he has worked and lived in his picturesque home/studio overlooking the beautiful Cul de Sac Bay. From vibrant transparency to deep shades, Antoine Chapon paintings are always a serene reflection of the Caribbean atmosphere.

Visit the gallery for giclee prints on canvas and archival paper by these artists and many more.
