ARTISTS STATEMENT

My name is Julie Sheard. I'm 45 years old and married with 3 children. I came late to art after all sorts of journeys through the years and after the birth of my third child.

I graduated from the University of Sunderland in 1998 with a first class honours degree in sculpture (& drawing). Illness then struck and left me too weak to work in 3D, but I began painting some 18 months later when a healer suggested I paint in the colour I was most unlikely to use (I had never used much colour) - so red it was.

These paintings have grown as my spiritual consciousness has risen - above and beyond all considerations of career or success. As I searched for a way to deal with frustration and anger, these images appeared from deep within: they have grown alongside my Buddhist practice and are directly related, as try to find the "sitting place" within, that is never moved by external happenings. It is the search for the Buddha Nature - the Unborn - the Unbecame.
