"My objective is to pull together what I've seen and experienced into
a statement of how I feel about nature and of my obligation as an artist to
share my knowledge with others. I feel my paintings are a celebration of nature
and its inhabitants and of life itself. "
"Inspiration for me comes from all the life that
surrounds me whether in the mountains, on a sidewalk by a busy street, or white
sandy beaches and emerald green water, it is my sense of sharing this in the
painting process. It's like magic to create an elusive moment, an emotional
response or memory, on paper. It let's me share with those who have seen the
subject or provide a moving experience of reality to those who may have never
witnessed it at all. "

"I hope it
will inspire the viewers to go to nature, observe and seek greater knowledge
and appreciation of all the beauties surrounding us."
"When someone takes one of my paintings to their
environment, the painting becomes a reflection of what makes them feel good. If
I accomplish this, then what better gift can an artist give!" ~ Sharon
