John Brock Art Alcove
Our featured artist in the John Brock Art Alcove for March and April is painter Sharon Liss from Palm Harbor. Originally from Detroit, Michigan, Sharon grew up in Dunedin and has lived in Palm Harbor for the last 24 years. She graduated from Eckerd College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Information Systems and a minor in Art. Sharon’s favorite medium to work with is alcohol inks and acrylic paints. She discovered her artistic side in 2020 during Covid and has studied different media and techniques ever since. Sharon also enjoys making homemade greeting cards, jewelry, and other crafts and sells her art at local craft shows and online.
Drawn to the fluid beauty of alcohol ink and the bold versatility of acrylic paint, she found a passion for expressing nature’s elegance through art. While nature is her inspiration, flowers are her favorite to depict in her art; she is able to capture delicate forms and vibrant colors this way. In 2021 Sharon launched her brand, Inky Spirits, to showcase her unique creations. She actively shares her art on social media platforms, including Instagram (@inkyspirits613) and Facebook (Inky Spirits Art). Additionally, participating in local markets and art shows allows her to make community connections to showcase her distinct, inky-inspired pieces.
Her art is a celebration of nature’s beauty and a testament to the joy of lifelong creativity.
