Seaside Vacations

A joint art show opened on October 3 at Roanoke island’s Festival Park and will run through October 28. The show features Hatteras Island artist Daniel Pullen and Stephanie Kiker. 

The exhibit will have an Outer Banks appeal that will attract folks that enjoy all aspects of our barrier islands; waves, wildlife, and the OBX vibe.  Mediums vary from photography, to drawings, and paintings. 

The show is open from 10/3 – 10/28, and the gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday; and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday. It is free and open to the public.

Pullen has lived on Hatteras Island for more than 30 years. He is a well-versed, and eclectic artist that is able to bring a very creative style to his photography and painting. His surf photography captures the essesence of the Outer Banks surf experience from the beach and the water, and he uses a variety of unique surfaces for his bold surf paintings.

Kiker graduated from the School of Design at North Carolina State University focusing on graphic and fine arts.  She works in pastel to create realistic images of the flora and fauna on Hatteras Island where she has been living for more than two decades. Kiker has developed what she calls an aboriginal style using colored pencils to express stylized nature.
