Raised by her single hardworking mom and beloved grandmother, Shelley was always exposed to nature and wildlife from the beaches where she lived, to the backwoods camping and fishing trips with her mom and grandma.\u003cbr\u003eShelley is Coast Salish, currently living on T’Sou-ke Nation reserve where she is starting to explore her cultural art forms. Learning more about her art culture of the T’Sou-ke Nation is inspiring on another level for Shelley.\u003cbr\u003eShelley has pursued several different art mediums over the years but really came to love painting, specifically in acrylic, using vibrant color palettes in her work. Shelley is a self-taught artist who is constantly challenging her boundaries and comfort zone. Wildlife is Shelley’s first love for subject matter, but she has challenged those confines in murals and portraits she was commissioned to do in Saanich Peninsula Hospital extended care facility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBeautifully wood-framed in dark brown, measuring 12\" x 14\", with glass and accompanied by the artist’s biography.
