Shawn mackey
Growing up in the long cold winters of Canada, he had ample time to draw and let his creativity flourish. Mackey’s parents, who were both teachers, would bring home boxes of scrap photocopy paper for him to draw on. He would cover hundreds of sheets with pictures of everything from Italian sports cars, to the elaborate floor plans of luxury mansions, to a variety of superheroes and cartoon characters pulled from his own imagination.
Today, Mackey’s paintings focus on scenes of beauty and love. His dramatic artwork evokes strong feelings of enjoying the greatest pleasures that life has to offer. Each painting combines figurative imagery with evocative movement and brushwork. These two elements combine and contrast to create a truly sensational experience.
