Welcome To
Sharon’s Elsey's Artwork
My art is comprised of acrylic paintings of outdoor sports, landscape, animals, abstract, paint pouring, nature, historical, and paintings in which I am inspired to do.
Many of the outdoor sports photos were provided by the students at Garrett College in the Adventure Sports Program. This is also where I worked for 22 years. There’s usually some kind of story behind each and every one of these paintings. Sign up for this newsletter to keep you posted on new paintings, opportunities, & a story or two. 😊
Most originals are framed beautifully. Obtaining the best print for you will also be for sale. Some will not be sold due to the quality of the photo for canvas printing.
A LEGACY OF CREATIVITY SINCE 2006
In 2006 I ordered an acrylic painting kit and began painting. As I was becoming more intrigued and learning new techniques, I was also working at the college in the Adventure Sports program, I was able to obtain unlimited amounts of photos by the students to paint. They are a favorite of mine. Thus, my 1st exposure of my work was being accepted by the GC Arts Council, to display my work in the Gallery Shop. This was followed by having a show at the college. I have since enjoyed the shows, exhibits, teaching and finding myself along the way. Many people can’t imagine painting with acrylic paint as something that can be fine art. I am more intrigued about so many types of art I can explore.
There are many acrylic artist’ out there, and they all have a style and are paid very well for their paintings. My style is mostly outside, whatever it is. I have been given a gift and I love to share it. Another type of art, I plan to explore is oil painting. I have taken a portrait oil painting course (once) in Grantsville, MD.
