Ingram Sharon

I am a mixed media artist working from my studio in East Northamptonshire. Coming from a technical background in graphic, architectural and product design, I was encourage to start painting by my Mother (a keen amateur artist who runs an art group), and discovered a love for creating, drawing and painting in a range of media and in a diverse variety of subjects. I subsequently went back to College, where I studied a Combined Studies BA Degree – which incorporated Art, Sculpture, Photography and Art History.

I am passionate about painting, and all aspects of art and design, a keen photographer, and am currently working on book illustration. I enjoy galleries, museums and exhibitions – a love I have shared with my Mother from a very early age.

I have been immersed in art and countryside, flora and fauna, gardening, walking, landscapes, wildlife and animals all of my life, and these elements, I believe are reflected in my work.

I work mainly in mixed media, on linen textured media as I feel this best lends itself to the combination of technical and creative skills I strive to combine. I hope you enjoy looking at my work and that it expresses even a fraction of the enormous pleasure I derive in painting.

I am a member of Kettering & District Art Society, The Society of Wildlife artists, and The Fellowship of Professional and Amateur Artists where she recently received a prize at their Open Exhibition.

I have been very pleased to have been exhibiting at Alderton for around 20 years now, and have been fortunate to have been voted People’s Choice in the past.  My most recent awards have been to receive “The Exhibition Prize” at the 2023 Northants Open Studio’s exhibition at Lamport Hall, and in 2024 – I was awarded “Boyce’s Choice” at the Kettering and District Art Societies Summer Exhibition, where I also won the People’s Choice award for a painting of Tawny Owls.

Commissions happily undertaken. For any enquiries, please e-mail: sli74art@gmail.com
