Shawn Doublet to have work exhibited at S.C. watercolor show

2016 Jun 24

Shawn Doublet, of Conway, SC, is one of nine visual arts students whose paintings will be displayed at the 39th Annual South Carolina Watermedia Society Exhibition to be held Oct. 8 through Nov. 27 at the Franklin G. Burroughs-Simeon B. Chapin Art Museum in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

The painting students will exhibit their watercolors created during the fall 2016 semester. The paintings chosen for exhibition encompass a variety of styles including realism, surrealism, abstraction and comic style. The artists were given an opportunity to create a series of paintings investigating a theme and/or concept. Each student's artistic development was crucial during the semester's work with a heavy emphasis on the main components of concept development, technical skills and creative investigation. The diversity of influences stretched from tattoo art, comics, beauty, emotion, classic cars, portraiture and landscape to watermedia display.

The students' paintings were chosen by CCU professor of visual arts Maura Kenny for this student exhibition which will run concurrently with the 2016 South Carolina Watermedia Society's Annual juried exhibition.
