Praise for Sharon Wilson's Work

"By finally adding a Sharon Wilson to my own modest collection I have made a significant investment not only in art but in Bermuda. Sharon Wilson is an extraordinary artist whose works, though for the most part thematically Bermudian, are culturally, socially and artistically universal. Frame by frame, each piece of work tells its own story and deepens one's appreciation of the social mosaic of Bermuda. As Chairman of the Bermuda National Gallery, I am proud that Sharon Wilson is a part of the repository of Bermuda's art treasures."

"Pastel is a delicate medium and Sharon Wilson is an expert in this timeless, classic art form. The word pastel usually brings to mind the image of a bleached out color. But pale is not a word I would ever use to describe her work. Sharon’s bright, vibrant and rich representations help make people and landscapes come alive. In a frozen moment of time, you feel the playfulness of children or seriousness of a conversation. Sharon combines the classic techniques required to paint with pastels with other techniques to increase the luminosity of her compositions. I love her color intensity."

“Ever since I purchased my very first package of Sharon Wilson note cards and my proudly displayed print ‘Secrets’, I longed to become an owner of a Sharon Wilson one- of- a- kind original painting. In 2006 I was thrilled when I acquired my first piece ‘In the Wings’[what a joy!] and now here in 2010 have secured my second from the Sharon Wilson exclusive ‘Bride Collection’. Finally my dream is being realised, as I have made my first step up into that elite group known as a private collector of Sharon Wilson Original Pastel Paintings.

Thanks Sharon for beautiful picture stories!”

"It is difficult to describe how much becoming an art student in Sharon's art school and becoming a collector of her beautiful originals has changed my life - suffice to say the paintings and the classes are the best gifts I ever gave myself. Sharon is not only an artist with stories to tell, but a philosopher and a brilliant artist. She has an extraordinary ability to capture human emotion and to give the everyday occurrences, deep spiritual meaning. I am excited to watch her coming of age as she starts to articulate her social agenda in written form and to communicate with her many fans about why she paints what she does, and how she uses her art to influence society positively. My life is richer for owning a number of her originals and I will continue to enrich my life by collecting her original paintings."
