Sharon Marantz Walsh creates unique, one-of -a

kind custom portrait art from meaningful photographs.

Together, they would transport each person into another world, another moment, another life.

Before working digitally, Sharon painted directly on canvas.

She worked with acrylic paints, brushes, sponges, palette knives and her hands, building each surfaces slowly, layer by layer.

Whether working from a client's photograph, or one she has taken herself, she studies the face, posture, expression and quiet details that reveal character.

She looks beyond likeness, searching for the feeling beneath the surface--the gesture, the memory, the silence and the inner life of the subject.

Only then does the portrait begin to take shape.

The finished work honors the original image, while giving it a deeper sense of intimacy, depth and story.
