Fruit of the Vine: Paintings if Whitney LeJeune at Arts Center of Kershaw County

Come to the Bassett Gallery to experience FRUIT OF THE VINE: The Paintings of Whitney LeJeune. This show is coming to us by way of the private collection of LeJeune’s work that was commissioned for the labels of Innate Wines' releases.

MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST AND SHOW: While the female form is Whitney’s primary subject, crafted to convey a mood or experience with color, form, and composition, this collection is unique in that each canvas and figure is inspired by the tasting of a unique bottle of wine. . . translating flavor, aroma, story of the grape, vineyard location, and anecdotes from the winemaker about creating that particular wine. Each embodies and captures the character of a distinct wine and the winemaker’s effort. Whitney majored in Painting at the Savannah College of Art and Design, earning her BFA in 2009. She currently paints and lives in Charleston, SC with her husband and their two young daughters.
