PROFILE

Originally from Maryland, Sharon is a graduate of Stanford University and Master Yoga Academy. She has traveled extensively, painting and teaching “on location” in many parts of the world including spending five years living in Asia.

She currently divides her time between Palm Springs and La Jolla, CA where she lives with her husband and “fur people.”

Sharon has had numerous one-woman shows and her work is represented in many private and corporate collections including Bank of America, San Diego Children’s Hospital, Scripps Hospital, and the Taipei National Museum of History.

Her work was selected to appear in Splash 3 and The Best of Floral Painting. Her own book, Watercolor Basics: Painting Flowers, was published by Northlight Books in 1999. She was commissioned by the U.S. Post Office to design the program cover for the first day issue of the “Fall Garden Flowers” series of stamps presented at Quail Gardens.

Sharon always prefers to work from life. Her “plein-air” style of painting reflects her love of Light and Color. Her vivid watercolors reflect the beauty of our world.
