Nancy Davidson grew up in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. As a young girl, her teachers and parents recognized her artistic abilities and encouraged her to develop her talent. A local artist provided lessons from grade school through high school, focusing on work in pastels and oils. Following high school, Nancy continued her education at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. Shortly after graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree, Nancy married a Navy man and spent the next twenty years raising two children while traveling throughout the United States and the Pacific. In 1995, Nancy and her husband ended their nomadic ways and settled in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. With the demands of parenting decreasing as her children grew older, Nancy was once again able to focus more time on painting and drawing. The Lowcountry became a perfect setting for her colorful, classic painting style.
A resident of Mount Pleasant, SC, Nancy delights in the limitless variety of subjects to paint, ranging from downtown Charleston scenes and people, to secluded Lowcountry marshes and beaches with all their wildlife. Her work also includes pieces inspired by her travels throughout the world. Nancy's work is represented by the Spencer Art Gallery I, 55 Broad Street, in the historic French Quarter District of Charleston. She has exhibited in many venues throughout South Carolina and received numerous awards in juried competition. Her work resides in private and corporate collections throughout the United States and abroad. Nancy is a member of the Charleston Artist Guild.
