Shannon Taylor was interviewed in Autumn 2016 by our previous artist, Danielle Schlunegger in a unique podcast style interview. Tune in to listen to these brilliant artists discuss Shannon’s work! We all met Shannon at Venison Camp, an adult art professionalism summer camp, in the Spring of 2016. Shannon creates these majestic paintings in Oakland California and we are happy to say, Shannon will be joining us for our Opening Reception of Venison Magazine’s first exhibition on July 15th and she will be giving an Artist talk at Abrams Claghorn on August 12th!
Shannon Taylor is a professional watercolorist based out of Oakland, California. With exception to the summer she lived in Italy (amazing), and the pursuit of her terminal degree in the UK (also pretty good), she has lived in Oakland since 2002. Her work has always focused on themes of nature, magic, and beauty, with special attention placed on detail and decorative elements. In addition to her professional practice, Shannon is also the Director of Art and Restoration at Children’s Fairyland, and a Professor at the California College of the Arts. In her free time (ha) Shannon enjoys swimming, soft fabrics, and petting other people’s dogs.
