Shiree is the oldest of four girls, born in Newport Oregon and growing up in southwest Montana. She comes from a hard-working family with her father as a logger and later owning a drywall business. All four girls worked in drywall and much of Shiree’s knowledge and love for texture comes from working with her father.

Sketching and painting were something very much apart of her childhood. In the mid-1990s Shiree was very interested in designer wall finishes and by 2002 made the decision to take professional classes from Faux Effects International and launching her own professional business. Throughout the years she has also taken mixed medium, oil, and watercolor classes from local artists in Bozeman, MT and Naples, FL.

Being very interested in the chemical process of mediums she is always creating and trying new and fresh approaches in creating decorative finishes and abstract art.

Always drawn to the ocean Shiree moved to Naples, FL in 2005 to present. Abstract art has always been a passion and in 2007 she began commissioned pieces in oil and mixed medium.

Loving texture, fluidity, and dimension in 2017 Shiree began creating paint pours using metallic’s and mica to create her envisioned pieces to acrylic.
