About Me

S Mercedes Lovett

Shana is a painter located in the Sierra Nevada foothills of central California. She is self-trained and has been painting for over 50 years. As a lifelong animal lover, and ex-zookeeper, her work is heavily inspired by nature, both living and extinct.

She is assisted by her raven, Shakespear, who supervises all her paintings (and only occasionally steals her brushes).
