Shannon Mallers


Shannon brings a great deal of creativity and variety to her choices for subject matter and composition. She is very experimental and seems to take a new direction with her work each day. She takes on a new technique on a regular basis, whether it’s stippling, sponging, scratching, or transferring. She uses loud bright colors like a fauvist painter.
Her use of charming simple images in complex compositions can give her work a graphic design-like quality.

Artist’s Statement

I’m 25. My birthday is February 17th. I’ll be 26. I live at Park Ridge. I have a cat. I have a fish. The cat’s name is Tsingtao, after the beer.

I like to go on outings. We go to museums. I like to play games- the clown game where you knock the teeth out with a ball. I like to visit pet shops. I take good care of animals. I feed them, hold them.

I’m good at painting, I made friends at The Arts of Life.
