This is a commissioned 22 x 30″ pastel portrait of “Rural Affair.” Two black and white portraits, fading into the color raceshot of the racehorse was nice to do! The gold nameplate added great contrast.

Welcome to the new Artworks by Shannon!


Welcome new and returning visitors alike! We have made some very substantial changes to the site that we hope you will enjoy.

I am a freelance artist and illustrator and have been taking commissions on pet/horse portraits and western and wildlife art for over 10 years. I have just recently begun taking commissions on sports players, teams, and Nascar drivers/other sports for people who want their idea sketched or painted. I have had a few small shows over the years in local galleries, and have won awards in contests involving artists that are non professional. I have since become a full time, professional artist, looking forward to making people happy with my creations.

In JULY of 2009 I opened a RETAIL STORE in Mount Forest with my artwork! It has been doing very well, and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve been really busy … but that’s what I want :)

I Just want to remind people that Christmas orders .. or any gift orders (custom art), need to be booked at least 6 weeks in advance, so you can receive it on time! Thanks

Please feel free to contact me with any questions, suggestions or comments!

PLEASE NOTE: All artwork on this site is copyrighted and may not be copied, printed off, or saved onto your computer or other devices without EXPRESS WRITTEN CONSENT!  Thank -you, Shannon
