Shar has had a passion for painting since childhood. She studied art at several different universities and her painting style has evolved from hard-edge acrylic brush paintings to palette knife oils, from pop art, realistic, expressionistic and abstract. Her long time career in education plus her travel has influenced the forms and colors she uses. Although she started painting primarily on canvas, she now has reawakened discarded school desks. She invites the viewer to take a fresh look at this classroom, the individuals in it, and the world of education.
