 BIOGRAPHY

Sheldon balances his life as an illustrator and a fine artist. His style was influenced by french and american painters.
He notes: “The french and american Impressionists greatly influenced my style. My frequent visits to the Metropolitan Museum of Art
during my years in New York enabled me to discover Caravaggio, Rubens and the 16th century masters' use of light.
After my move to Berkeley, the California Realist Painters reinforced this belief."
He studied painting and drawing at the Art  Students League in New York and Illustration at San Jose State University.
Sheldon  presently lives in Berkeley, California with his dog Arthur and his cat Port.
He says: "The greatest joy I have ever known is when I am painting, either for my galleries or for an illustration project.
That all changed when my son Cole was born in october of 2001.  As the new year begins I still find incredible joy in making art,
a bit more bleary eyed and sleep deprived, a little less sure what it all means, and a definite sense of time passing by.
I am in a new studio with my dog Arthur in tow,who is getting much less attention than he has been used to for the last
eleven years looking forward to the day I can teach my son how to paint.
Meanwhile when he wakes up in his room he can peruse the illustrated alphabet that I painted on his walls."
