SHARON WAREING - Artist Statement

Painting is a passion.  Visually, some things just need to be painted due to their beauty, or emotional value.  The paintings reflect her personality – the search for inner peace and a sense of calm that is not always available in life.  Her love of the environment, and animals provide limitless opportunities to create. More recently Sharon has been focusing her art on our environment – the oceans and water, and trees that are necessary for life as we know it. Sharon is a current member of the Victoria Sketch Club, Federation of Canadian Artists, Imagine Artworks and SPAC.  Sharon’s works can also be seen at Central Art Studio and Gallery.
