      Watercolor on paper depicting a lone beach house with seagulls perched on the roof and a fishing boat in the water; signed and dated lower right "Ben Shute 80"; under glass in wood frame; sight 23 1/2"W, 17 1/2"H; frame 28 3/4"W, 22 3/4"H--Ben Shute was born in 1905 in Altoona, Wisconsin, and received his formal art education at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. In 1928, he moved to Atlanta to teach at the new High Museum School of Art. While there, he and staff developed a dynamic curriculum that resulted in the nationally accredited art school that eventually became the Atlanta College of Art (now absorbed into SCAD). Shute established a reputation as a portrait artist, but his true strength is evident in the many paintings he did to document his travels worldwide. In the early 1950s Shute began his annual visits to coastal Maine where he completed his most well known works in a "shifting cubist perspective". He was awarded the Governor's Award in the Arts for the state of Georgia in 1985. In 2002-2003 the Georgia Museum of Art toured a retrospective
