OVERCOMING ADVERSITY
Shannon often speaks of how some high school teachers frowned upon the idea that she loved and painted The Beatles. One in particular, her Art Teacher, would bully her sayings “You’ll NEVER get anywhere drawing those pigs!”. Years later she proved them wrong when Liverpool, England’s Lord Mayor gave her the title: “The World’s Greatest Beatles Artist”.
CELEBRITIES
Shannon’s celebrity artwork has been recognized all over the globe. From actors to sports figures, rockstars and more… every line painted is a line for reason.
“When I paint a celebrity portrait I usually need to be influenced by that individual. Of course, I love Norman Rockwell, Maxfield Parrish, and Sebastian Krüger among many… but I have influences outside the “artist/painter” realm, as well. Some of my favorite people that have added, or taken away, color to my life are… JFK, Rick Nielsen, Mae West, Muhammad Ali, Bette Davis, Edward Van Halen, David Gilmour, Marilyn, Julia Child, Lucille Ball, and my all time favorite… Charlie Chaplin.” _Shannon
THE DARKER SIDE
Have you met Shannon? If you have and you see the artwork below you may say to yourself, “She has a very dark side! She seems so gentle. How could that be?”
As Shannon puts it… “There are no limits to what we are all capable of within the gifts we are given. I enjoy my ‘darker-side’. It’s a part of who I am. It’s where I store my insanity.”
