Shelley’s style is constantly evolving as she explores the medium and where it takes her. Some of her artwork makes a political statement, and others just celebrate the beauty of Portugal and the Algarve. She often starts with a poured background and then adds painted figures or other objects as the piece demands. She is mainly self-taught and simply paints from the heart. Her jewellery is designed from left-over paints on silver-plate or stainless steel and glass and is one-of-a-kind.
