Exciting Announcement: Ray Brown Unveiled as Featured Artist for SEWE 2025 in Charleston

Exciting News from Charleston: Meet the Featured Artist for SEWE 2025!

Charleston, S.C. is buzzing with excitement as the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition (SEWE) announces Ray Brown as its Featured Artist for 2025! This talented artist, who currently calls Southern California home, is mostly known for his incredible work with charcoal. The reveal was made on Tuesday, and it has certainly captured the attention of art lovers and wildlife enthusiasts alike!

Get Ready for “Veiled”

This year, Ray Brown is set to create an original piece titled “Veiled.” It will grace the official poster for the SEWE 2025 expo. The beauty of “Veiled” is already on display at the Gallery by SEWE, located within the Shops at Charleston Place. You can catch this stunning artwork until it is auctioned off at the SEWE VIP Gala on February 13, 2025.

So, what’s the story behind “Veiled”? The artwork features a majestic bull moose, which embodies the noble and enchanting qualities of wildlife. According to SEWE, Brown aims to capture the profound connection that exists between nature and its inhabitants – a theme that resonates with many of us who feel a special bond with the great outdoors.

A Full-Circle Moment

Ray Brown expressed his heartfelt gratitude about being named the SEWE 2025 Featured Artist. He described it as “truly an honor and a validation of the work I’ve done over the years.” What makes this moment even more special for Brown is that SEWE was actually the very first show where he displayed his art, more than twenty years ago! Can you imagine how fulfilling it must be for him to return as a celebrated artist?

Reflecting on his journey, Brown shared, “To be chosen as the 2025 Featured Artist takes me back to that first time I walked into the ballroom. I feel proud of what I’ve accomplished in my career since then.” His words remind us of the value of perseverance and passion, and it’s great to see such support from SEWE throughout the years!

What’s Ahead for SEWE 2025?

Mark your calendars because SEWE’s 43rd iteration is just around the corner! The expo will take place from February 14 to 16, 2025.
