About the Artist
Meet Sharon
Sharon is a new, up-and-coming artist whose paintings first became available for sale only a few years ago — and have sold quickly, and for increasing amounts.
"In her professional career as a psychologist she saw and felt the pain of others for nearly 30 years. Now she sees and revels in sharing the intense beauty and joy of the world around her."
Currently she is most inspired by northern California land and seascapes, painting scenes from Big Sur, Monterey Bay, Carmel, San Francisco Bay, and the northern coast to Mendocino — subjects ranging from docks and sailboats to vineyards and pastoral scenes in Napa and Sonoma counties. She occasionally ventures into portraits, figures and cafes.
Sharon lives in Petaluma, California, which is itself a picture-perfect place and is only a short drive to the vineyards of Napa and the Russian River, as well as San Francisco and the northern coast.
