I studied Art History and Drawing in college with a goal to pursue my passion in one form or the other. In the beginning my medium was pencil/charcoal but recently strolled into the arena of acrylic/collage. I will always be drawn to realism with that in mind I am truly enjoying the adventure.

As a woman, I find it hard to be seen or heard. Creating helps me express myself, find beauty in our flaws, emphasis topics that I and many women struggle with daily, and empower ourselves. My works adjust the viewers’ attention to subject matter (mental health stigmas, women’s rights, body empowerment) they may not feel is important or have no idea how much these so called “little inconveniences” are actually major issues. Nude figures are an important element in my work, they are intimate, nature, raw, powerful, open, and taboo to some. The artworks are bold, intimate, and outside the norms. People will talk, whether it be a positive conclusion or a negative statement. They see it, they think, and they are a part of the work itself. I’ve experimented with different surfaces and have taken art off the canvas and onto casual attire, creating wearable art. People are now the canvas, a moving artwork for all to see. This fashion is advocating for women’s rights and the arts. Like graffiti, we can bring culture and issues to the people who may not see it in a gallery.

VIEW GALLERY ART Sue Carol Knight

William Polley has traveled in a huge circle to be able to retire and paint full time. An incessant doodler as a child, I became a self-taught artist with my first medium being charcoal. I started painting seriously in high school with acrylics and was selected as art director for my high school yearbook and other school projects. In pursuit of my passion for art, I graduated from the University of Memphis with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Commercial Design and Artistic Painting. I joined The Marine Corps as an officer and a fighter pilot trained in the F-4 Phantom. During those six years I was an instructor in the Naval Training Command and also produced pilot training films for the Naval Photographic Center. After serving my country I continued in the art field as Art Director for the city of Memphis Tourism and Economic Councils. For the next twenty five years I was a pilot for Federal Express, often traveling to regions that inspired my artistic talent. When I wasn’t flying I was painting and decorating my home and those of friends and family. The main reason I moved to Walton County is because of the beautiful scenery of the Emerald Coast. I have had the good fortune to be selected as cover artist for “The Beachcomber” newspaper five different times. I have gone full circle from artist to pilot and back to artist. With reflection, art has never left my eyes. William Polley William Polley has traveled in a huge circle to be able to retire and paint full time.
