Shirley DeLaet is a self-taught artist whose work includes illustration, design, and the fine art of oil & watercolor painting. Within it all, lies her passion for the beauty found within everyday life. Her subjects are intentionally varied
and filled with the discovery of underlying beauty found in the ordinary, and sometimes, in the strangest of things. She doesn’t hesitate to add a surprise, or a touch of humor, in her works providing it tells the story she wants to depict. Everyday life sparks her inspiration and labels of genre do not confine her imagination. |
