About the Artist
Shannon Thorbus
Artist/ Instructor/Owner of
Kids Studio of Fine Arts
I am a self taught Artist, embracing and growing the techniques that define who I am today. I draw inspiration from the places I've traveled, the beauty around me and the people who have so greatly influenced me on my journey. I strive to instill my passion and love for art with those I know. Using my creative space as a building block for self awareness, creativity and independent process for those I teach and share my talents.
My current work embodies the use of Water Colors, Oil and Acrylic mediums. Creating a style that includes a mishmash of realism, expressionism and mixed media. I love to work emotionally, allowing for change and adaptions at any time. I believe in teaching the importance of letting go and starting new as this has been such a strong hold for me in my artistic process and growth. I embrace imperfecions and teach my students the value of their own artistic journey above the end result.
