Meet Sheilah

As a child I was constantly drawing.  I was so excited when my mother gave me a chalkboard and colored chalk!  - draw, erase, and draw again -- hour after hour.  My first finger painting at age 5 hangs in my studio today.

Of course I grew up...life got busy. For many years I didn't use my artistic talents.  Then one day I took a painting class on a whim and completed a painting in one day!  That was all it took to get the creative process awake again. 

I have concentrated my art on the outdoors because of my great love of  animals, wildlife, and nature.  I'm also musically blessed and have been playing the piano since the age of 4.

The name "Songbird" came about very naturally; my family name on my Grandmother's side is Bird and Song represents my love of music.

Today I live with my husband and my Australian Shepherd, Mistletoe, on a small ranch near Fort Worth but we spend as much time as possible at our cabin in Arkansas.
