​Doing freelance artwork, calligraphy and teaching in an art enrichment program for decades, has culminated in my gallery work. Professional and active memberships include: Watercolor Art Society of Houston, Visual Arts Alliance, Women in the Visual and Literary Arts, and Houston Calligraphy Guild. Acceptance in juried shows, and traveling to Europe yearly to paint, plus a constant stream of taking classes or teaching workshops, make ART a daily routine. Shelves of sketchbooks attest to this. Humor finds home in my note cards. You will find more works by Shirl at
