Shirley was born in Sheridan Wyoming, a small western town at the base of the Big Horn Mountains. The extraordinary beauty and vastness of both earth and the sky above in Wyoming has become a limitless inner source of inspiration. Her art would be best described as journey of exploration in color and technique.
Shirley made her way to the east coast in her early twenties First to the Rochester Art Guild (resident artist), Rochester, NY 1976 – 1979. Then on to to study painting and sculpture at the Art Students League, New York, NY 1980 – 1983
Shirley is now a resident of New Jersey
