In Memory Of
On February 1, 2022, The Beaufort Arts Council experienced a tremendous loss of
artistic talent, unwavering advocacy, and humanitarianism when Diane Britton
Dunham left her earthly mecca. A humanitarian at heart, Diane loved the arts in
all forms and lived the life she loved by affiliating with various organizations that
embraced the arts. She will be missed for her authenticity, masterful portrayal of
paintings that captured the essence of African American experiences, landscapes,
and customs in the Lowcountry as well as Louisiana’s marshes, bayous, horizons,
and landscapes. She manifested a rainbow of talent in her artistry and will be
remembered for her brilliant use of color, intricate landscape designs, and
colorful themes that brought to life the excitement and flavor of South Carolina’s
Lowcountry region and the bayous of Louisiana.
4 Words To Describe Diane:
