Biography
I was born in Statesboro, GA. I've lived mostly in the Southeast, including Florida and South Carolina. I matriculated in the early years in Georgia and completed my Bachelor of Science degrees at SC State University. While attending college, I earned two diplomas, one concentrating in Marketing and the other concentrating in Fashion Merchandising, while taking several art classes. Later when I moved to Atlanta, GA, I completed my Associates of Arts Degree in Fashion Design at Bauder College. There I read a lot and proposed doing more in the field of Fine Art.....As a small child I remember questioning my mother on why I could not draw like my brother (and paint as she did), so she said to me, "You won't know until you try." From there my interest sparked and skills blossomed.
The natural world and surreal imagery, colors, forms and beauty captivate me. I believe that any object or subject can be applied to a surface and used to convey thoughts and imagination. I strongly believe in all types of mediums and experimentation is one of my key strengths. Mix media is a particular favorite. I try to inject deep feelings and tones in my work. Abstract, Surrealism and Expressionism are my main modes of creativity, but not exclusively. I consider art as universal, so I create with the cosmos in mind. I am very keen when it comes to provoking and innovative concepts. I want the world and my touch of human ingenuity to portray a global mindset and the flowing energy all of us. I have belonged to several art associations, such as, Atlanta Artists Center, ARTopia, and South Cobb Arts Alliance. I have exhibited my work in the Atlanta Jazz Festival, Juneteenth Festival (Gainesville, FL), NBAF Festival, different venues and an assortment of emerging artist gatherings. I would consider myself new to the arena of publishing with a new vanguard approach.
What is ART to Shellton LaBron Tremble? What defines the meaning of creativity? It's POWER. It's PASSION. It's PERPETUITY. I try to merge spiritual thoughts with tangible mediums. ART to me is as infinite as the mind of a youthful toddler. It can be everyday objects or impossible realities...
.....ART IS IN ITSELF, A REALITY.
Hey Shellton,
Selling everything you have at an art show will be nice. It has not happened much lately though. When the economy make a turn for the better we will see brighter days.
