About

Shannon S. Wishon was born in 1971 in Santa Monica California, but moved to England with her Ma and little brother in 1986.

Shannon has been an artist since the day she learned how to pick up a crayon and many years later received her BA (hons) in illustration. Her inspiration comes from the natural world around us, the human form, her interest in all things mythical and magical and of course her love of creation .

Shannon works out of a sunny room at her home in West Yorkshire where she lives with Richie and their baby son Gabriel. She has exhibited her work all over Britain and has sold pieces to people all over the planet. Shannon has several commissioned murals under her belt including one for the Guinness company, but mainly she works small illustration work for Ottakar's bookstore chain and her own cards, bookmarks and paintings.

Shannon uses oils, pastels, but her special love is for watercolours, using layers of glitter and iridescent paints to enhance the beauty and quality of the colours that she uses. Her personal style is more spiritual, but she is often asked to produce more realistically rendered subjects and she doesn't mind as long as she is painting or drawing!
