Sharon Daugherty is a Philadelphia born, Atlanta based painter and sketch artist. The self-taught artist uses abstract expressionism to examine and honor human experience and how we interact with our environments. Her subjects range from abstract portraits and human figures to urban and natural landscapes. She is a colorist who loves highly textural work and uses paint, ink, charcoal, and other materials on a variety of surfaces. Her work is highly intuitive, reacting to what the canvas gives her as she works. Sharon’s work is collected by people across the country. As she finds painting a highly therapeutic medium for herself, she also works with students to help them discover the power of creative expression. Sharon is part of a family of creatives – a husband who is a writer and musician, and two daughters, one a sculptor, and one a singer songwriter. She works out of her home studio where her family gives her constant energy, inspiration, and support. www.sharondwriter.com
