Sharon Virtue is an artist, facilitator, trainer and visionary ‘inspirationalist’ currently based in Fairfax, California, while working internationally in arts and creative community development. Her work has two strands, one as a dancer and artist, creating paintings and ceramics, and the other as a creative community activator, teaching expressive arts workshops and facilitating community development projects. She has won several awards as an individual artist and her work is published in several art publications. Travel is her greatest inspiration, and was the catalyst for her expansion from solitary artist into the realm of community. Her work is designed to encourage the potential artist in everyone, that it IS possible to make a living with your artwork and make positive change in the world.
