Art League of Hilton Head presents "Finding Light"

Art League of Hilton Head invites the community to experience "Finding Light," a new exhibition by local artist L. Robert Stanfield, on view July 28 through Aug. 28 at Art League Gallery.

Through vibrant abstract mixed-media paintings and sculptural works, "Finding Light" reflects on resilience, renewal, and the enduring strength of the human spirit. The exhibition explores the idea that hope often appears when we offer it to others—and that by illuminating someone else’s path, we may discover our own light in the process.

Stanfield’s work is known for its rich layering techniques, metallic elements and luminous surfaces that shift and interact with light. His pieces invite viewers into a contemplative space where color, movement, and texture become vehicles for reflection and emotional connection.

A Hilton Head Island resident since 1999, Stanfield studied at Savannah College of Art and Design and has exhibited widely throughout the Lowcountry. Beyond his studio practice, he has devoted much of his career to arts education and helping others use creativity as a path toward growth and healing. His work can be found in both private collections and public spaces, including MD Anderson Cancer Center and MiraSol Health.

Art League Gallery, located inside the Arts Center of Coastal Carolina on Hilton Head Island, is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m.–4 p.m. and Sunday from 12–4 p.m. Admission is free and open to the public. 

A reception with the artist will be held Wednesday, July 29 from 5–7 p.m. The public is also invited to a Coffee Meet & Greet on Tuesday, Aug. 11 from 10:30 a.m.–Noon.
