About Sharon’s Work 

Sharon is a Hampshire-based artist, who has enjoyed an artistic career spanning over 20 years, painting energetic landscapes, seascapes, and woodland scenes. She specialises in large-scale works, with many of her paintings exceeding dimensions of 1m x 1m. In addition to the extensive collection available from at No Naked Walls, Sharon regularly takes on bespoke commissions, to create the perfect piece for every client. The shapes and textures of Sharon’s work derive from her observations of the natural world and the associated symbolic meanings found in nature. Floral meadows are a prominent theme in Sharon’s work, and her expressive style lends to a sense of movement amongst the flowers. A variety of locations have informed Sharon’s abstract paintings, ranging from local leafy Hampshire and Surrey landscapes, to the sunny scenes of Costa Rica and Sri Lanka. A little closer to home, the coastlines of the Isle of Wight and Cornwall have inspired a plethora of beautiful blue seascapes in Sharon’s work, which capture the beauty of these popular seaside destinations. 

Sharon works in a dynamic and engaged painting process to achieve her large abstract landscapes. She works directly onto canvases placed on the floor, and has stated that both gravity and time influence her processes. Sharon works with oil paints to build up multiple layers, and achieve immense depth and movement in her paintings. Through her process of layering and building texture, remnants of past layers remain visible and leave an imprint of the event, which highlights the painting process in the completed piece.
