While Charleston is known for Southern hospitality, there is a vibrant art community here. Famous street artist Shepard Fairey was born here and Doug “The Sheepman” Panzone is following his lead. Behind a run-down strip mall on the way to Folly Beach is a secret art gallery. It’s all about word of mouth here, with one resident telling another until you see a number of cars parked to take pictures of Sheepman’s work. It’s hard to believe that everything you see has been done with spray paint.
