Abstract:
A painting of a schooner by artist D.G. Bell was discovered in a Florida garage, dated to 1934. Interested in the work’s history, the owner began chasing leads on the art’s origins by contacting Carteret County citizens whose names were listed on the backside of the painting. One of the names, Tibbie Roberts, yielded answers. Ms. Roberts confirmed that the painting had been given to a local couple as a going-away gift in 1937. D.G. Bell owned a gift shop in Morehead City where he exhibited and sold some of his work. Today, several of his paintings are held in collections at the Carteret County Historical Society. Following the discovery of his work, it was decided that a party would be held to unveil the “long lost” painting and showcase Bell’s talent.

Abstract:
The Carteret Summer Art Studio was held in Morehead City in 1969 to showcase local artists work. A local family offered use of their property—guest instructors stayed on the upper floor while the porch and dining room were used as classroom space. Several well-known North Carolina artists served as instructors and artists staffed the studio and store throughout the summer. Unfortunately, the studio did not continue the next summer.
