​hidell brooks gallery is pleased to be a part of mayday playday at charlotte latin school again this year.  we donated a charles walker painting to the auction that would fit beautifully into any home.

hidell brooks has just received new painting from scott upton.​  they are all so gorgeous it is hard to even try to pick a favorite.  scott lives and works outside atlanta.  his paintings have an inner glow that is at the same time mysterious as well as soothing.  scott is having his first solo exhibition at the gallery in november.

​maggie currey's beautiful bedroom is featured in the may issue of southern living. hidell brooks helped with the art for the newly renovated bedroom.  a large new painting by eric aho fit perfectly in the space above her bed and looked amazing in the room.  maggie is behind lamshop a local web boutique offering custom furniture and home accessories.
