Shelley's passion for art started at a young age. With her mother insisting that she do something for herself, she signed up for pottery classes at the DVSA.

 

"I recognized my ability to pursue my artistic eye".

 

"After raising my family I rekindled my passion for pottery and decided to open my own studio/gallery, "The Pottery Loft", in my home. Although I continued my pottery it wasn't until I saw an advertisement for painting classes that I began a new journey.  Painting opened a brand new world in creativity".
