Animals
and nature fascinate Shannon Gillespie and her art reflects that with animals
being the subject matter 90% of the time. Shannon is happiest sculpting in any
and all material and painting in acrylics, but has a broad interest in mediums
and is always keen to experiment. Shannon find her drive to create can strike
at any time, leading to miniature blu-tac dogs and alfoil tigers.
Conservation
Statement
“I wish the public as an enthusiastic about the environment and
conservation as they were about sporting events such as the recent Olympics. I
think raising peoples’ awareness to conservation effort with events like this
exhibition is really important to further those efforts.”
