San Diego's RAWartist of the Year 2015 Shanna Lee Stanton

Visual Art – San Diego

I start with an empty canvas and let my imagination and colorful swirls of inspiration fill my soul. My love for painting is something that I cannot describe with words. Colors seem to flow from every aspect of my being and the essence of who I am is swirled with what I create. To create is to inspire and to inspire is to create; there is not a day that goes by that I do not try, in one form or another, to do both. Art to me is such an expressive personal aspect of my life that I feel the only way to expand further is through my artwork itself.
