About the Item
Artist Comments
She sits on the beach but in her imagination, she's in the sailboat. Expressive figure in watercolor. The artwork has been affixed to a 1.5 deep wood panel with the sides painted black. It is coated with UV protective varnish and sealed so the work does not need to be framed under glass.
About the Artist
Sharon Sieben prefers working in a loose, fluid technique and finds inspiration in the most unexpected things.

Sharon Sieben
Prolific contemporary painter Sharon Sieben regards her artistic process as a form of communication, with the viewer and as an inner dialogue with herself. She is known for her Abstract Expressionist paintings that use bold splashes of color and a loose, fluid technique.
Born in Indiana in 1934, Sieben enjoyed a creative childhood, painting and playing music. As an adult, her artistic proclivities were put aside when she focused on a career in manufacturing operations and raising a family.
In later years, Sieben returned to her passion for art. She is largely self-taught, with her inspiration coming from her world travels, in which she learns from fellow artists’ workshops and through viewing the work of Impressionist artists such as Paul Cézanne.
When creating her abstract figurative paintings, nudes and landscapes, Sieben prefers working with oil paint but also incorporates other materials such as acrylics, gouache, charcoal and graphite. Recently, Sieben has explored watercolors, as demonstrated in her contemplative watercolor paintings Moment in the Sun and Depleted.
Sieben’s paintings have been exhibited throughout the United States in galleries and at venues including the New York Expo, the World Showcase of Arts in Las Vegas and the Boyce Thompson Arboretum in Superior, Arizona.
She is currently based in Mesa, Arizona, where she continues to create vibrant and imaginative work.
