Artist of the Month

July 01, 2010



The beautiful oil paintings of Sharon Peters are on display for the month of July. They are located across from the elevator on the 2nd floor.

Sharon Peters, a traditional artist, has been creating original oil paintings for more than 30 years. Her repertoire of works includes landscapes, seascapes, still life, and portraits from photographs.

Sharon started her art with pencil drawings then moved to pastels and charcoal. She next tried water colors and acrylics. She found her calling in the use of oil because of the complex textures created by the blending of the multitudes of available colors.

Sharon is a member of the Addison Art Guild and the Elmhurst Artist's Guild.

Take a moment the next time you are in the library to enjoy Sharon's paintings.
