As a self-taught artist, I am influenced by natural and the spiritual world, especially representations of beliefs and customs in a variety of cultures. I choose the appropriate medium, whether painting, mixed media, collage, or photography from the “visions” which guide me in during the creative process. - Sharon J. Burton, Artist
