Sheri Gee
Figurative, Portraiture, Landscape and Still-Life Artist
West Sussex-based artist Sheri Gee has been developing her art practice over the last 20 years, after graduating from the Kent Institute of Art and Design with a Degree in Illustration.
Much of her work is rooted in the figurative and portraiture, having spent many years experimenting with different materials and mediums at life-drawing sessions.
Sheri finds inspiration in the world around her - from local landscape to London commuting, family life and all of the moments in between.

Sheila P Martin
St Leonards on Sea, East Sussex
Original Art For Sale
Art Tuition For Children
Sheila Martin has been painting avidly for 12 years. She retired from being a chef 6 years ago and had been working in offices previously. Sheila lived in Kelvedon in Braintree Essex and attended various art classes and progressed from there, before recently moving to St Leonards on Sea, East Sussex.
Art is all about emotion, feeling and giving to others. It is such a wonderful thing to do to start from scratch and build up a painting for people to enjoy. So Sheila never did art for a living prior to retirement, but has been able to recently enjoy success and build a reputation to be able to hold solo exhibitions.
She likes to paint in all types of media, she uses pebeo golds and silvers, glitter and masking fluid. When she went to school there were never all these wonderful art colours and medias to hand. Flowers and forests are her main works.
Please enjoy Sheila's art and if you would like one, she would only be delighted to paint for you or to teach you her techniques.
I belong to the Battle Art Group (East Sussex) and have had 2 solo exhibitions this year.
Member of Colchester Art Society, Essex.
I am now doing demonstrations in Hobbycraft in Chelmsford, Essex. I have done 4 now. The children come up and help me paint.
I have a CRB and would like to take them for 2 to 3 hours on a lesson. I feel that what I do helps the brain to focus and stops boredom by painting pictures. I have been commissioned work by various people over the last 2 years
