Hi, I’m Shannon!

I’m an artist based in Los Angeles, though I’m originally from New England. Art has always been part of my life—from childhood sketches to earning my BFA in college.

I've worked in the arts for over 25 years, exploring everything from printmaking and photography to silversmithing and costume design, but it wasn’t until a particularly stressful chapter in my life that I found my way to painting. It quickly became a daily ritual, a calming practice that brought me peace when I needed it most.

Most of what I paint is joyful on purpose: fresh flowers, cozy corners, little scenes that remind me of home, travel, or just everyday beauty. I paint what inspires me in the moment—moving between acrylics & watercolors - and at the heart of it all is color. I’m endlessly fascinated by color and how it can shift your mood or transform a room. These pieces are meant to feel like a jolt of happiness—something you see and instantly smile, a tiny dopamine hit to brighten your space.

Whether you’re collecting something for yourself or giving it as a gift, my hope is simple: that it makes you feel good. A little spot of brightness and joy. A little moment of calm in a noisy world.
