Artist Statement
I have been an artist for several years, and my painting style is abstract/contemporary and with beautiful bright colors. My medium of choice is acrylics, but I still enjoy working with pastels and oils. Over the years I have had the honor to study from some of the best known American artists. That being a privilege in it’s self, I allowed myself to choose my own style of painting. With that in mind, I have changed my style of painting from realism to abstract . What a beautiful ride to find that changes still come from within me. I have always felt that visual art is stimulating and whether one is aware of it or not, it saturates our society by giving depth, color, and a means to communicate our ideas. One piece of art can trigger a wide range of emotions to those who view it from outright joy to a sense of well-being and peace. It is a piece of art that brings a room to life. People notice art and will remember seeing it for a very long time. Life is good and art makes it better. Art, whatever the form, is a therapeutic method of expressing creativity. Through art, one can release ideas that otherwise might not be easily articulated in any other way. This is why art will always live within me. Sharon |
