23.01.2022 When I was At art school, we were SO fortunate to be surrounded by incredibly talented people and artists in the making. One such person @corallowryartist inspired me to ‘make’ and make and make. I probably drove her crazy lurking around her space chatting. I loved EVERYTHING she created and has continued to be a huge influence to me and just a great woman.... I made a little slide show from a quick impromptu visit today.... the sculpture work is Corals and the others are quick shots I took in her home who she shares with equally amazingly talented daughter. Renovated from absolute scratch... it was like being inside the latest interior mag. Just amazing! Hope you enjoy. . . #perthartists #coralowry #perthart #perthvisualartist #perthart #perthsculpture #uniqueartist #inspirationalartist #perthcreatives #curtinuniversity #perthpublicart #perthinteriors

Gave her a bit of a Frida makeover and something a bit more for the kids to talk about and she turned out fab!... A good arvos work. . . #sharonpeterkinartist .#perthmurals #schoolmurals #durhamschool #perthsofperth #perthartist #perthart #creativelife #soperth See more

17.01.2022 And this is the wrong side ! . Loving winter stitching and cosy nights. Stay tuned for finished piece.... . #sharonpeterkinartist #perthart #perthartist #creativelifehappylife #visualartist #soperth See more

16.01.2022 A couple more hours on this gal... . My fav part of painting this mural are the kids. It’s a special needs school and I’ve just loved having my ‘through the fence chats. Today one young student and I belted out at the top of our lungs Kookaburra noises and my scratchy rendition of Kookaburra sits on the ol gumtree etc etc ... Funny! We had fun. . . #perthmuralartist #muralsofperth #perthmurals #schoolmurals #perthartist #sharonpeterkinartist #soperth #perthartscene See more

16.01.2022 LOVING needlework atm! I have a fab memory when living in London in 1987... I spent a lot of time visiting galleries and studios and rug making was HUGE. I fell in love with the process and thought that’s what I would always do. ... I’m only just having a go at the process and just loving it! A textile person lives within. . #sharonpeterkinartist #perthart #perthartist #visualartist #punchneedle #soperth #creativelife

15.01.2022 There’s just something about stitching and I that just goes together... I feel as home as I do with clay or paint. This is a little practise piece and I’m busting to push it further and further to see what journey it takes me on. Enjoying this glorious rainy Sunday inside with soup bubbling on the stove.... Feeling incredibly blessed atm but thinking so much for our People in our East in full lockdown. . . . #sharonpeterkinartist #thinkingofmelbourne #perthartist #textileartist #perthaustralia #creativelife #kitchenstudio #thankgodforart #winterdays

14.01.2022 One of my absolute fav paintings.... mid century influenced of course. I’ll have just a couple of these on Sunday and only the one framed up ready to pop on your wall with no effort or anything to do except enjoy it. As always, I only print limited editions so you’ll only be one of only a few who own this yummy art print.... It’s free to park and get in. Come for a relaxing outing... the grounds of UWA are so beautiful. . . . #theperthupmarket #perthsbestmarket #whatsoninperth #soperth #marketsperth #uwa #creativelife #artforsalebyartists #perthnow #supportlocal #sharonpeterkinartist #pertharts #perthlife

Feeling very grateful. . . . #windyharbour #wearesooutofhere #sharonpeterkinartist #perthmuralartist #perthmurals #perthcreatives

06.01.2022 I’m at it again... Sooooooo grateful to have a few mural projects in the pipeline. This one for Durham Road School in Bayswater. Lucky enough to have an incursion next to me today of the cuddly animal farm. I want a baby goat, lamb and ducks. .... way cute!... ‘Hot like sunrise’ in the sun today.... geezzzzz I’m a winter girl . #sharonpeterkinartist #perthmuralartist #perthmurals #muralsdaily #perthartscene #perthartist #soperth #creativelife

05.01.2022 Birds & fish... I’ve been drawing them and including them in my work for 30 years now. These little table sculptures are being released for the very first time at THIS SUNDAY’S Perth Upmarket. Lee and I have been storing some gorgeous vintage pressed tin for years and I just felt an urge to get on the tools and make these guys.... I made a complete mess of the ‘kitchen studio’ and my hands were cut to shreds (that tin is sharp! ) but I LOVE them. I honestly had so much fun... thanks for your guidance @leepotterartist . Sooooo...there are 20 pieces and each is different and unique. Bring your Christmas list and feel amazing supporting our local artisans. I think you all know how much I love this market. It’s the only one I exhibit with and this is my 11th year!!! @perthupmarket Hope you them. . . . #perthupmarket #sharonpeterkinartist #sharonpeterkinart #perthevents #perthmarkets #whatsoninperth #thingstodosunday #perthpop #soperth #perthsmarketscene #handmade #perthartist #perthsculpture #perthlife

03.01.2022 Happy Friday everyone.. Just one last reminder about the Perth Upmarket on THIS Sunday 10-4pm in the grounds of UWA. OMG it’s going to be a divine spring day!!! (Phew). .... You don’t have to rush there first thing, everyone has plenty of stock to last through the day and sometimes it’s a bit more chillax coming along after lunch. Although.... there’s a whole heap of good food options this year with some fancy chefs cooking up storm. Just a pleasant outing all up. If you want t visit me particularly, I’m under the big Mortan bay fig tree, on the lawn, in front of Hackett hall. (All coffee received with love).

02.01.2022 I like to call the murals I’m working on... Murials. Much more fun . . #sharonpeterkinartist #perthartist ... #muralartist #soperth #perthstreetart #perthpublicart .

01.01.2022 Yes, I’m not that great on spreading my posts out and do a cram b4 each Upmarket and that’s because I’m so flat out making ‘stuff’ just for YOU!!! I’m passionate about gifts being hand made and I know that not everyone is into making stuff and that’s why we are here.... It’s no secret how much I love this market, particularly the Christmas one. I have fond memories of markets in the UK and for this one we are going all out to make it christmassy for you all. ... I see there are new retailers this Sunday with some bootiful goodies. It’s always super busy in the morning so consider coming after lunch.... there’s always enough. Enjoy my little slide show! . . . #perthupmarket #whatsoninperth #perthmarketscene #soperth #whattodoonsundayinperth #whatshappenningperth #sharonpeterkinart #perthartist #perthevents #
