Watercolor still lifes
Shirley Of Trevena

Shirley of Trevena (Shirley Trevena) was born in London. Her mother and grandmother were dancers and singers, and his father worked on the creation of fantastic films for television. Shirley admits that paints the big screen most directly influenced the bright colors of her songs when she began to draw. The fact that the artist she was not immediately and almost by accident. Shirley worked in the municipal bodies. But one day she got a box of watercolor paints. Shirley just "disappeared", to find that the painting is what she had to do in my life from the very beginning.

She enjoys working in watercolor mixed media. Her passion - still life, still she paints abstract landscapes.
[U]the Artist priznaetsa@ "
me painting relationship kind of love-hate. I'd rather do something else than to start painting: clean oven, make lists, or even stroke. But as soon as I get into the Studio and make the first brush strokes on white paper, then immersed in a world of my own feelings, not paying attention to anything except colors and shapes.
I believe that creativity is hard to start, but even harder to get away from him. As well as painting, I love to play piano, watch TV and knit. I always tried to break the rules of traditional watercolors and chetverg century has developed a free manner of painting using dynamic color picker".
