Spring Creek Community Center

Hot Springs Art Trail 2026

Work by Reilly Morse

The Hot Springs Arts Trail is a daylong celebration of local artists that flows through Spring Creek to Hot Springs, stopping at galleries, local businesses, and community spaces. These stops feature the work of local artists (often with the artist present!), bluegrass music by local bands, live demonstrations, hands-on activities, and food.

David Price

Drawing on his knowledge of the natural world, David Price works primarily in bronze to capture each subject’s anatomy, movement, and character. His award-winning sculptures have been exhibited in public gardens, galleries, and at the University of Florida and are held in numerous public and private collections.

David Price is a self-taught sculptor whose work reflects his lifelong passion for nature and conservation. Inspired as a child by the sculptures at Brookgreen Gardens, he earned a botany degree from Clemson University and explored biological illustration and garden design. His 42-year career in public gardens included 39 years at Bok Tower Gardens, where he served as Director of Horticulture and later as President.

Reilly Morse

A lifelong Mississippian, Morse began painting in 1972 in the studio of Dalton Shourds King. He was inspired by direct encounters with coastal woods and maritime scenes. He pursued the plein air approach of impressionist painters then became exposed to a wider range of art movements. In 1977-78 he spent a year in Aix-en-Provence where he studied with Maggie Siner and professors at the Université d’Aix-Marseilles.

In 1980 he entered law school and practiced law for 38 years, the last 16 as a public interest lawyer. Along the way, he resumed work in plein air and studio painting. He retired in 2021, opened a studio in 2022 in western North Carolina, and moved to Spring Creek in 2025.
