Sharon Davidson’s work involves intuitive abstract painting. She works from photos she takes, interpreting her experience with the image through colorful, energetic marks. Her subject matter encompasses ruins of dwelling places of historical significance, portraits of loved ones, and the flowers and water ditches in my neighborhood.

ABOUT LIGHT AND REDEMPTION
Eastern State Penitentiary is the oldest prison in America. The prisoners’ cells were designed to be solitary dwellings where a single skylight inspired communication with their hearts and minds. Reflecting on their acts that brought them to be in this place, it was hoped the inmates would regret their wrongdoing and be redeemed.

ABOUT SHARON DAVIDSON
I received my art degree from the University of Montana in the 80’s. I was fortunate to study with Rudy Autio, Lee Nye, and James Dew. I moved to Seattle after graduating and began a career in interior design. Returning to Missoula in 2001, I began painting in 2016 after a serious illness led me to art therapist, Kim Brown Campbell. With support from Kim and my spouse, poet Scott Davidson, I am endeavoring to pursue an active engagement with art.
