Shanna Anderson

I'm a sequential artist, illustrator, colorist, graphic designer and really anything else I can find a way to apply my artistic skills to. I love drawing, coloring, inking, painting, storytelling and so much more. I thrive on the challenge of an ever varied range of art jobs and medias. Part of my goal is to bring the quality, and originality and passion of fine arts into the practical, marketable and accessible world of commercial art.

One of the things I love most about art is the way it surrounds us all the time, even though people often overlook it. Great masterworks are wonderful things, but most of them hang in galleries or private collections where we are lucky to visit them once in a while. The art that I believe has the strongest impact on on us is the art they are surrounded by every day. Everything from the logo on your coffee cup to the pattern on your curtains - that is the art that makes the world beautiful and unconsciously informs your sense of aesthetics. My greatest artistic goal is to be a part of that - to put my art into the world in a way that people will enjoy even if they do not always realize it is there.

One of the ways I like to pursue this goal is by making clip art, calendar patterns, and other art for educational purposes that can be found and purchased through Child Magic at http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Child-Magic. Read Less
