Art has always been part of my world. For me it is how I understand and process my life and communicate most successfully.
My work is about my observations on life; hopes, dreams, regrets and reflection. With my drawings I am trying to encourage people (and to remind myself!) to live vivaciously, to love deeply and to be appreciative of the beauty in our world. Honouring the simple moments of our complex fleeting lives.

I find drawing the quickest way to convey my ideas. Saying the things I would love to, if only I found the spoken word as easy to communicate with. Since graduating from my Fine Art Degree I have used various mediums, however, I always return to the same themes. It is the strength and beauty of the fragmented human spirit, and our relationships with each other and our world that I constantly want to explore.

Two new pieces by Shone for 2020 are respectively titled ‘What’s Her Name?’ and What’s His Name?’ – two pieces whereby the artist made a call out for participation whereby participants were asked to reveal and consider other names commonly used for male and female genitalia. A great way to demystify and humanise sex talk.
You can explore and purchase Shone’s works on the following platforms:
Facebook, Instagram and at www.victoriashone.com.
