Jeanne Shanahan

Jeanne Shanahan has passed away after a prolonged illness. Jeanne was a very talented artist who exhibited down the street from me at the Brandon Gallery in Fallbrook. I have known Jeanne for about 17 years, as long as I have had the gallery. She is perhaps the most positive artist I have ever met, always kind, never a cross word for anyone, always a source of support for me personally.

Jeanne was a very sensitive colorist. I am sorry that I never bought a piece of her work to remember her by. You think that the people you know will be there for you forever.

Leslie and I extend our most sincere condolences to both the Shanahan and the Brandon family.

i had the pleasure of talking with Jeanne a couple years ago at Brandon; she had just started painting again with oils, and i had to compliment her on the results; very talented artist and a genuinely nice person.
