Charleston native Shannon Brown Wood grew up among the marsh grass, tidal creeks, waters and wide skies of the Lowcountry. The constantly changing light and hues of the marsh and water create an infinite supply of inspiration and surprise for artist and audience alike. Wood earned a BFA in graphic design from the University of Georgia and spent six years as a designer for Gil Shuler Graphic Design in Charleston. In 2005, she volunteered at Redux Contemporary Art Center during the build-out of their in-house studios. She spent a year at Redux as a resident artist, and in 2006, her work was included at a Charleston City Gallery emerging artists exhibit, Under the Radar. Her work, focused on the marshes and waterways she still calls home, invites the viewer to revel in the possibilities that live just beyond the horizon. Often incorporating natural elements, reeds or grasses hand-sewn into the canvas, Wood juxtaposes tactile touches of the real with her own response to a moment of light, color, and wonder beautifully suspended and forever captured in time. shannonwoodart.com
