Capturing extreme realism from every angle

"Snow Leopard Leaping"

The realistic approach that Shawn McAvoy reflects in his sculptures is a testament to his respect for the natural world. His attention to every detail is precise, depicting his subjects in an exceptional fashion, capturing extreme realism from every angle. Growing up on Long Island and spending time in the Adirondacks, Shawn developed an esteem for nature. Since he was a young man, Shawn had an opportunity to observe the wildlife of the North Country while staying at the family cabin in Indian Lake, New York and hiking through the woods. Shawn sketched the animals he saw there, and as an adult he experimented with different media until he found his niche — sculpting in his own unique style. Shawn’s Awards include an “Award of Excellence” from the Oyster Bay Suburban Art League for his “Snuggling Manatees” also a “Best in Show” award in the 2006 “Art in the Park” from the Art League of Long Island. In 2007 Shawn had an exhibition at the Adirondack Lakes Center for the Arts in Blue Mountain Lake, NY. His “Right Whale Breaching” piece has been included in a televised special “The Secret Life of Georgia’s Whales” produced by Atlanta based WSB- TV. As a member of the Huntington Arts Council his work has been exhibited in various shows since 2006. In 2008 Shawn was honored by being invited to join the fine art group "Long Island Professional Artist Showcase" also know as "Seven and Seven" which consist of seven accomplished sculptors as well as seven accomplished painters. All of whom reside on Long Island. In 2011 Shawn's sculpture was included in an invitational show entitled "Water World". Shawn’s work is exhibited in galleries throughout the east including Martha's Vinyard and Bolton Landing . The drama depicted in his sculptures makes them come alive, as if freezing for a moment in time. For orders or additional information e-mail Shawn McAvoy at: shawnmcavoy@netscape.net
