Shannon is an emerging 29-year-old artist working out of her home studio in Ashgrove, Brisbane alongside her two furry studio companions Mindy & Marlow. She has been working as a full time artist since 2022.


She is a self-taught oil painter who specialises in realism with her practice focusing on a variety of different subject matter including sweets, pantry staples and still life scenes. Shannon’s work aims to capture the playfulness and nostalgia of her subjects, bringing a sense of joy to ordinary everyday items.

Her small scale works are known for featuring bright colours are always painted with a high attention to detail. They don’t require much wall space and are great for bookshelf styling.
