He was educated at the University of Chattanooga where he took an art course as an elective. His professor commented that most people identify their friends by profiles, not the details of their hair color, height or complexion. Rice was so taken with the comment that he went into a dime store in downtown Chattanooga and bought a pair of scissors on a whim for a quarter. He went back to his boardinghouse that evening and began cutting his way into Southern history. Rice was also a folk-singer and story-teller well known throughout South Carolina and his intricate compositions of Lowcountry landscapes and figurative silhouettes were eagerly sought by Charleston society and collectors throughout the world. There was a time when no Lowcountry home was complete without framed silhouette portraits of children done by Carew Rice.With a trademark beret, that he picked up in Paris, and his pencil mustache, Carew Rice was a celebrated figure at festivals, state fairs, church bazaars and sidewalk art shows. The poet Carl Sandburg once hailed Carew Rice as “America’s greatest Silhouettist” and certainly Rice’s bold style and depictions of the Deep South rank him among the masters of the medium.........\" The silhouette measures 4\" by 6\" and is in excellent condition.
