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."
