“Southern Spring” by C. Brooke Ring

Chelsea Brooke Ring, a 2012 Furman graduate and graphic designer at Shannon Forest Christian School in Greenville, S.C., says, “Social media has changed everything for artists. [We] have all these avenues for selling and connecting with customers online …” The art major says she can reach a wider audience through online channels like Etsy than she could by relying soley on exposure in galleries. Known for her whimsical, airy beach scenes and other abstract works, Ring also plays with the edgier side of art. Read more about her style in Cindy Landrum’s piece in the Greenville Journal.
