Sharane Gilbert
For over twenty years, Sharane has had a love/hate relationship with watercolour; so she has recently renewed a earlier interest in oils. She is primarily an "alla prima" painter, just finishing up in the studio. It's always the immediacy of the subject matter that inspires me. For me it is all about process, colour, line texture and shape; the physical thing of making your mark. Sharane's work has won awards in juried shows and is on display at several venues in Oakville and Burlington.
