Don’t you think discovering a new favorite artist is a lot like finding a great new song? It’s those kind of new discoveries that I always want to sit back and simply revel in, while also containing the urge to share them with everyone I know. I’ve been introduced to several amazing, new-to-me artists while working for Waiting on Martha over the past few years…and it’s pretty cool realizing that the majority of them can call the South home. (I may be a bit biased since moving nearly a decade ago, but I say the region’s beautiful surroundings have a lot to do with the great art that comes out of the place!)
From Atlanta to Austin to Charleston and beyond, I’ve rounded up a few of our favorite southern talents worth noting in the slideshow above. But like any list, this list is made to grow, and I’d love to add some of your favorites to our list of top southern artists. Leave your recommendations in the comments below, and if you’re ready to bring a few of these beauties home (this one is calling my name), be sure to read these 5 things to consider before starting an art collection of your own. Cheers, Kat
