We’re excited to spotlight Kayleigh Breaux as our Artist of the Month! Known by many as a dedicated personal trainer, Kayleigh’s sentiment for art has been a lifelong journey. She has long since gravitated to different mediums, such as acrylic paints and graphite, as a way to capture the likeness of her subject matter. Kayleigh has always turned to creative expression as a way to reflect The Creator’s handiwork.
Originally from Georgia, Kayleigh moved to Charleston in the fourth grade, a pivotal moment that sparked her artistic spirit. She fondly remembers wandering the charming streets of downtown Charleston, where the vibrant gallery scene first stirred her imagination and gave her a glimpse into the world of visual storytelling.
Her talent blossomed through middle and high school, where she earned numerous accolades, from honorable mentions to first-place awards in local art shows. But as recognition grew, the joy of creating began to dim under the weight of expectations. Art became more about fulfilling requests than feeding her soul and honoring the gift she’d been given.
That changed recently, thanks to the support and encouragement of the Seabrook Artist Guild. With their help, Kayleigh rediscovered the enchantment of making art for the sheer joy of it. It all started again because of a cute little dog rendered in charcoal and two kind-hearted art lovers, Michael and Terri, whose encouragement meant the world to Kayleigh.
Kayleigh’s collection for the July Artist of the Month exhibit is full of pieces that reflect her humor, warmth, and appreciation for the everyday charm that surrounds us. She hopes her work offers viewers the same delight she felt while creating it; a moment of amusement, a smile, and perhaps a sense of connection.
Come experience the joy, playfulness and renewed passion in Kayleigh’s work and you might just walk away inspired to pick up a brush yourself.
Please join the Seabrook Island Art Guild for a reception showcasing Kayleigh’s art on Tuesday, July 8, from 4:30 – 6:00 pm at The Lake House.
