About the Project

Sharon McGinley's artwork is filled with loaded symbolism, and this painting was no exception.  As you look throughout the work, you try to make connections between the many characters, objects  and scenes, to put together a story of what may be happening.  

The painting workshops were filled with many questions about the work and praises for the saturated colors used to create the rich fantastical scene.
