Artist: Lucius Nelson | Location: Darlington, SC
Darlington, SC
Lucius Nelson hails from Charleston, SC. He began his art practice at a young age with studio art lessons by day and drawing his own comic books by night. His pursuit of studio art was developed at the University of South Carolina and then furthered upon at the College of Charleston where he earned a BA in Studio Art.
After college, Lucius continued his passion for oil painting, but was largely wrapped up in pursuing a career in independent filmmaking. This took him to Philadelphia to film jazz greats like Gary Burton, as well as a litany of up-start cats in the area. Lucius returned to SC to work on the film Overalls and Aprons, which explored the crucial relationship between Charleston's farmers and chefs.
When filming wrapped, Lucius traveled in Asia, Europe and the United States. Now, at 32, post travel and post engineering, Lucius has settled in Darlington, SC to focus on painting, raising crops and deepening experience in zen practices.
