ime flies when you’re having fun, just ask Broderick and Michele Crawford. It has been 25 years this year since Broderick picked up a paintbrush full time and it’s been both fun and exciting. Known for his intricate skills as a jeweler, no one was surprised to see the same attention to detail in his artwork. Broderick’s art includes trout, birds, landscapes, scenes from rural life, and historic locations around the area. Not only is he a gifted painter, he is an award winning carver. He has received dozens of awards for his art over the years, including a dozen First Place finishes and two dozen Second Place awards. He competes in the Federal Duck Stamp competition each year finishing as high as fourth. His favorite accomplishment was winning the Trout Unlimited design for the state of Georgia car tags. Michele Crawford has been by Broderick’s side from day one, establishing herself as one of the area’s finest photographers, capturing the Appalachian culture, natural beauty and wildlife. She also frames Broderick’s and her art and offers framing to their customers. The Crawfords are dedicated to conservation and work and donate to organizations such as Trout Unlimited. Visit Crawford Art Gallery at 108 North Main Street in Clayton, Georgia. For additional information call 706-782-8379 or visit their website at www.brooderickcrawfordart.com
