Artist: Shirley Young
Shirley Young drew and painted when she was much younger, but has actively pursued oil painting since her retirement. She holds two degrees from LSU and also took several design, drawing and painting classes, which were not related to the other subjects she studied! She holds a degree in graphic design from the Art Institute of Atlanta and has studied with Libby Johnson at the Studio dei Leoni for nine years, most recently as a member of the Sorelle studio artists. She has exhibited work in the juried River Road show four times. Also, she is an exhibiting member of the Association of Women Artists and has taken part in their State Archives, State Capitol, and Elizabethan Gallery shows. Her work explores intense color, light and shadow in nature and architecture. She also enjoys painting animal portraits.
