Limited Edition Artwork Prints
Driven by a passion for outdoor adventures like hiking, camping, and rock climbing, it felt only natural to immortalize the captivating beauty of Burke County’s iconic Table Rock through a meticulously detailed pencil drawing. This artwork was crafted around 1990, just before embarking on my journey to study Communication Art/Graphic Design at East Carolina University.

Envisioning a broader “Linville Gorge Mountain Series,” I initially printed a limited edition of 500 prints, aiming to include other majestic mountains like Shortoff and Hawksbill. However, life’s demands and commitments took precedence after college, and regrettably, I haven’t returned to the drawing board in years.
Nonetheless, I am delighted to announce that Limited Edition Artwork Prints of Table Rock are available for sale. It is my sincere hope that, in the future, I will have the opportunity to create additional drawings and expand the series as envisioned.
The Table Rock drawing holds a special place in my heart, capturing not only the natural allure of the mountain but also the spirit of exploration and appreciation for the great outdoors. I am excited to share this artwork with fellow nature enthusiasts and art enthusiasts alike, as it serves as a reminder of the beauty that surrounds us and the adventures that await.

A bit of Art History …
As a young artist, I gained a following of individuals interested in purchasing my artwork. Around the age of thirteen, I created a pencil drawing of the historic Old Dale’s Antiques building in downtown Morganton. Initially, I was reluctant to sell the original artwork. However, a friend proposed the idea of producing limited edition prints, allowing both the public to enjoy the artwork and me to retain the original. Taking their advice turned out to be a wise decision, especially as the old building was eventually demolished. Consequently, I successfully sold all 200 limited edition prints, further affirming the value of that choice.

Captivated by yet another intriguing architectural gem in downtown Morganton, my attention was drawn to the historic Old Morganton Train Depot, which I feared might face demolition. The depot had remained vacant and progressively deteriorating for as long as I could recall. After capturing numerous photographs and exploring various angles, I settled on a composition that would serve as the foundation for a pencil drawing. Notably, I decided to include two gentlemen who were frequently seen around the old depot in the artwork. To my pleasant surprise, I later discovered that one of the men was Mr. Singleton, a passionate train enthusiast. His family ended up purchasing a significant number of my limited-edition prints, further solidifying the special connection between the artwork and the individuals associated with the cherished depot.

Having experienced success with two previous Limited Edition Artwork Prints, selecting the third subject for a pencil drawing was a natural decision. My personal favorite building in Morganton was the Historic Burke County Courthouse, an architectural gem nestled in the heart of downtown. After leisurely strolling around the square and carefully studying various angles, I settled on capturing a captivating view from South Sterling Street, looking up towards the courthouse.
As my drawing style evolved into a distinct art form, this particular piece became another cherished original that I couldn’t bear to part with. Additionally, I produced a limited edition of 200 prints, which astonishingly sold out in no time. In hindsight, I found myself wishing that I had printed a larger edition, perhaps 500 or even 1000, due to the overwhelming demand.
The timeless beauty and significance of the Historic Burke County Courthouse, combined with the community’s eagerness to embrace my artwork, made this endeavor a truly rewarding experience.
