An Atlanta native, Charlotte Riley-Webb moved with her family to Cleveland, Ohio as a toddler, where she was educated in the public school system and earned her B.F.A. degree from The Cleveland Institute of Art in 1971. As a professional visual artist, Charlotte documented the essence of her culture in her three year traveling painting exhibition, From Stories of My America, which debuted at the Hammonds House Museum in Atlanta, in 2001. It exhibited in seven different museums and fine art galleries throughout the south until 2005. Among them were The Beach Institute in Savannah, The Rosa Parks Museum in Montgomery, Penn Center in St. Helena Island in 2004 and Achievement Through Art in Shreveport, LA in 2005.
Webb’s paintings have been exhibited in numerous museums and fine art galleries throughout the country and are in many private, business and corporate collections.
Contemporary realistic with an abstract flair is how Charlotte described her representational works. This rhythmic style with bright bold colors, easily translated into the illustrations for three children’s books Rent Party Jazz and Sweet Potato Pie, for New York publisher, Lee and Low; and The Entrance Place of Wonders, published by Abrams Books in January 2006. |

An evolution of study, growth and expansion has led Charlotte to her new and present genre, abstract art. She began the process by studying with two of this country’s premier abstract artists.
Charlotte says, “Transitioning into abstract art has been a natural, liberating experience for me as an artist. I have been exploring the relationships between line, space, texture, color, composition and emotional awareness in creating these new works and discovering how to make these elements relevant to my art working in acrylics, oils and pastels. I feel that abstract art represents the depths of ones artist soul. From the process, I am truly exploring my latitude as an artist.”
The Webb rhythms continue to resonate far beyond the boundaries of her canvas and, likewise the abstract works and book illustrations have transitioned into her own unique Charlotte Riley-Webb energy and style. She has woven her shapes and colors into compositions which she calls “Earth Tunes”, these she feels are as valid, and have as much emotional power as music with a continuous medley of fresh, vibrant, and exciting images. The versatility of her style and new work is truly having national appeal.
