Sharon Nowlan grew up drawing, painting, and creating in a broad range of media inspired by the natural beauty of Nova Scotia. It wasn't until she became a mother that the expansive seascape and landscape were brought into tighter focus. It started with a trip to the beach with her three-year-old son. After gathering a pocket full of small, sea-washed pebbles, she artfully arranged them to create a small tableau depicting a grandmother and child. The notion that a clutch of small, cold stones could convey such warm emotions struck a chord within Sharon. Sharon's designs have evolved over the years to include other natural objects including shells, twigs, driftwood and bits of sea glass.
