Moving from Toronto in 1993, Sharon Benson now resides in Westport, ON. Her studio is in her home where she also gives classes. She has taught art to students in grades 1 - 8. Sharon's art journey began in 2008 when she took her very first watercolour class. She had always admired Monet. Since that time Sharon has added acrylic, sculpting with fabric, multi media and alcohol inks to her repertoire. Sharon is a certified Paverpol and Powertex teacher making figures and various other items with the fabric hardener.
Sharon is a member of the Rideau Lakes Artists' Association, as well as the Westport Art Council. She was the Chair for the Grist Mill Gallery in Westport. Sharon's art graces the homes in Canada, the U. S. and as far away as China. You can find Sharon's work on her Facebook page, Rideau Lakes Artists Association website and Instagram.
