Sharon Hurst

Artist

As a child, I dreamed of dragons and their hoards of jewels. Now, as an adult, I paint the dragons and make the jewellery!

In my teens I found inspiration in the wonderful album art and the “Lord of the Rings” imagery. It nurtured the desire to try and create the images that I imagined. The lure of the Fantasy world has never left me, I enjoy the process of creation and watching my characters come to life on the page just adds to the thrill of it!
