PAINTING – Golden Acrylics on hand stretched canvas or cradled board: Sharon is an expert colorist. She expresses life through her use of color. Her paintings are inspired by views and reactions to places and spaces from both imaginary and actual experience, such as a body of water, a wild storm, a vivid dream, her flower garden and memories and feelings from her life. Her images are full of bold and sometimes subtle color.
MIXED MEDIA – ink, acrylic, chalk, paper, pencil, Lettraset, etc. on cradled board: Her Mixed Media pieces are inspired by peeling paint, thoughts and feelings, and her doodles.
