    About Sheldon M.

    5.0
    (4)
    I am an experienced artist that has traveled the world, learned from many teachers, observed, utilized tested techniques and have a mentality that I can always be learning. I studied art a little more than average in high school, but graduated with honors in college with several classes of studio level ceramics. During which time I began teaching other students. I loved being able to help those who were in the studio with me. My love for art began when I was young and have always been pushing the envelope of my skills to get better, and be able to understand more complex principles of art. As I matured in my artistry I began to develop my own styles from the many teachers I encountered and produced my own pieces that ranged a variety of genres: watercolor, acrylic, drawing, sketching, charcoal drawing, oil pastels, markers, pens, sharpie temporary tattoos, poetry, wire sculpture, ceramic sculpture, pottery wheel, photography, plant design, bonsai, and most recently I have developed as an oil painter. With so many avenues I have ventured down, I am thankful that I have learned to take creativity into everything I do. This especially came to true when I began to travel the world. From Europe to Asia, I have learned from different cultures and have taken that opportunity to reflect on and venture back to teach you some of my favorite techniques that I have had the privilege to learn.

    What a pleasure it was having Sheldon come in and teach our youth! We planned a night of creativity for our youth at our church and Sheldon kindly volunteered and provided materials for our teens to have an awesome experience. He gave expert advise and technique but also embraced everyone creative side. Hope to have another night with Sheldon as our teacher. Super fun night!!

    My artwork and creativity has become more important than just for me, I wanted to take my ability to connect others and have meaningful relationships, search for and help others find inspiration and the years of experience in the creative realm and share that with students of all ages.

    I worked in both commercial and residential design and application of landscape soft and hardscape. This put my understanding of plants, colors and shapes, into a cohesive design that was pleasing to the eye in to practice.
