Shera Summer Bio

"Come meet with me and dance with me and share in this moment that is real and alive!" ~ Shera Summer

Shera Summer is an emerging abstract expressionist artist whose artwork is born of her drive to experience, create and share the magic found in connecting with movement, adventure, nature, the arts, each other and the sea.  Shera believes in “Romancing life” and “having fun with it”.   It is these qualities, along with her unique life path, that fill all of her creative endeavors.

Shera works intuitively and sees a blank canvas as a playground where she is free to “court the unknown” with a sense of curiosity and abandon.  Her resulting artwork can be all at once uplifting, soothing, immersive and engaging.


It is Shera 's playfully passionate spirit, and love of community, that calls to us. It invites us all to join her on her magical journey of exploration and new discoveries. through her creativity and beyond.

"What's around the next corner?"  
​"I don't know but I can't wait to find out and share it with you!"

Artist's Statement 

Picture
"I am an intuitive visionary creative finding myself forever engaged in the interplay between the depths of my emotional intelligence and the desires of my exuberant, playful heart and soul.

In one moment I am yearning to touch the intangible.  To be immersed in that space between the in-breath and the out-breath. To be where stillness meets movement and the fire and magic of life force is forever birthing the new.

In the next moment my heart calls to me.  Enticing me to throw myself full on into expansion. To merge with the captivating worlds of color and movement, shadow and light, spirit and form.  To dance with reckless abandon with the wind and the rain and the crashing waves along the shore.  To be forever untethered and wild and free.

This is why I am here.   To experience and birth as a living expression.
To give voice to all that my soul path has called forth. 
To engage in creation as a creative.  
And to share the next calling....   whatever it might be."

​Why do I paint?

I love experiencing and tapping into that dreamy, magical energy found in movement and sound, color and light, living and dreaming and immersing myself in all of it!    When I am painting, or I am visioning or creating anything really, I get to play with that magic and have fun with it and dance with it and then share that energy with the world.

What is my process?

Painting is a journey for me, filled with mystery, unfolding, transformation and wonder that always leaves me drawn onward into the moments that lie just ahead.   I begin, immersed in natural sounds, music and color surrounded by the fullness of life.  Then, through movement, intuition and "listening" for what is wanting to be revealed, the birthing begins.  
During an intuitive process of moving layers of paint and medium I allow color and the forms that appear and disappear to lead me onward, never knowing where one road will end and another will begin.  The experience of watching the mystery unfold in this way is like dancing a beautiful free form
 pas de deux, where the next movement is born into a moment that has no steps until the next note is heard.

What inspires me?

Some of the things that inspire me are the beauty found in nature, the play and dance of color, shadow and light, being out in the world exploring and traveling, meeting new people and experiencing the magic of life.   I love storms,  inner fire, movement and passion filled moments.  The feeling of freedom, adventure and experiencing something new and the transcendence in being consumed.  And music. Music drives me, fills me, moves me. Often you will find me dancing and singing in my studio while I create.
Oh, and immersion... I am definitely an immersion person.   I love being completely immersed in a moment, a song, a feeling, a witnessing, a dance or a connection.   Without these things I truly believe that I could not live.
