Artist Statement:
Painting gives me the opportunity to share all that is beautiful. The interplay of colours that is nature, challenges me to devise ways to capture it on canvas. If you were to ask me what segment of any composition most interests me I would have to say colour and light. Each painting represents first colour and light followed by my love for gardening and the unusual flowers that illustrate tropical flora.
The inspiration from tropical flora brings to mind a saying from a fellow artist. He feels that the Caribbean sunlight is brighter than any he has ever seen, the colours radiate a glow that is seen nowhere else.

Tribune .. Bahamas, Wednesday December 5, 2007....Article by Wil A. Pluck...........Sharon Fox-Mould’s attention to details; her choice of colours; the complementary range of reds and greens, capture much visual dynamics that set her “Orchid Diptich” ablaze with intense interest and desire.

Gardening. Driving my children from place to place, I spend so much time doing that it had better be a hobby. Painting keeps me breathing and even though it's my JOB it's also my hobby. |

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
Jesus says of flowers “...not even Solomon in all his splendor was arrayed like one of these”. For me each floral painting is about the character of the flower. The “in your face” pieces that I do challenge me to not just paint a pretty piece of work for your dining room but really says, stop, look and experience colour, shape, and what ever else you can glean from stopping here. I use colour to create excitement and lure the spectator to come closer. Most of my work is non conventional the ordinary rules of composition are mostly used but like myself convention is not always required. I paint for effect to elicit an emotional response. If you observe a group of people walking through a garden and the response that they have to a very red flower, for instance a rose or a hibiscus you would probably notice the exclamations, the admiration and sheer awe. My use of reds, oranges, yellows in the florals seek to capture that effect. More to the point it is also about upliftment. If I've given you a a reason to smile or just a twinge of joy then I've achieved my goal.
