Sharon Reay has been creating art in various media since childhood. After attending the Vancouver School of Art, she continued taking courses and workshops, as she grew her art practice and raised her children in Burnaby. In the '80's, she taught ceramics at the Burnaby Arts Centre for several years, before it became the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts. By the early 90’s she had become the Adult Arts Programmer (in all disciplines except music), then later her position shifted to focus upon Ceramics of all ages. Her main focus has been on clay for the past 40 years, but she has often turned to other materials - mainly drawing and working with wood, when circumstances or injuries made work with clay impossible. The imagery she is most inspired by comes from children’s literature or nature and her whimsical characters most often elicit smiles from those who come across them.
"Embark on a journey that feels straight out of a fairy tale with Sharon's lantern. Her creations, like magical pages turned into reality, beautifully manifest the wonders of imagination. Imagine the enchantment of reading a book illuminated by this lantern, weaving a captivating spell that transcends the ordinary."
