Shannon Lawlor

A native of western Canada, Shannon currently resides in the province of Alberta where the traditional bridle horse culture is strong.

Always aspiring to be an artist, she developed the discipline and ability to capture infinite moments of real life ranching experiences in her paintings, working with acrylics, oil graphite. Her hands are skilled both in the saddle and at the easel.

Greatly influenced by veteran horsemen, knowledgeable in the old California stock horse traditions, Shannon’s passion for horses and art developed into a quest to combine anatomical accuracy with historical authenticity in her exquisitely rendered paintings. Her study of reality and subject matter lends itself to the structure, depth and detail seen in her pieces. Western fine art collectors consider Shannon to be a premier bridle horse illustrator. Her commitment to historical accuracy, her first-hand knowledge of the working stock horse and gear along with her continued dedication to honing her artistic techniques result in Shannon’s growing recognition in the fine art community.
