Refreshing Realism: Shaun Downey The Society September 26, 2012 Art “Shaun Downey strives to breathe fresh life into realist painting by combining classical ideals within the context of his own life and surroundings. His paintings have elements of decades past, but are firmly grounded in present day. Often painting his wife and friends within the confines of his home, we are allowed a voyeuristic glance into his world as he reveals his efforts to capture the fleeting beauty of modern life.” Click here for more on Shaun Downey and his exhibit at the Galerie de Bellefeuille.
