The Global Art
Sharon Chekroun
"There were a few years there when I had a real block to picking up a brush and putting it to canvas. Then I took a workshop in Aspen from Michelle Casseau who wrote a book called "Life, Paint, and Passion."

A Jew whose soul, heart and incredible talent are larger than the world's largest canvas! Sharon is a master of Alfresco style painting.Living in Israel Sharon, grew up in a southern neighbourhood in Tel-Aviv. Deserted by her father at the age of five, living with her alcoholic mother to the age of fifteen. Jew, with her mother from Egypt, and her father from Iraq.
Seems to be forced into finding her sacred/secret place at the comforting
colours of her painting. Developed her own artistry from sketches to acrylic
painting on canvas, and then fought to get a scholarship to find herself in one
of the finest art schools in Israel.
Discovered the magic of "Fresco" in 1995.
