E. Paige Smith Duft is a visual artist raised in the South Carolina Low Country, who now lives and works in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. As an arts educator, Paige actively promotes and personifies the transformative power of creativity in her own life and in that of her students. Paige's work explores the spaces where design, utility, craft, and creativity clash, blending the classic Low Country chic of Charleston with the hip, High Country aesthetic of Asheville. She has experienced great success over the years in creating space-specific works, and is always happy to receive subject or color specific commissions.
