Sheldon balances both a successful career as a freelance illustrator and a long-standing commitment to create and exhibit fine art that explores his own personal vision.
His acrylic and mixed media paintings often depict allegorical figures engaged in spiritual exploration or struggle. Animal or semi-human characters featured in his work reflect the conviction that we are unfinished creatures ourselves, striving to evolve.
Sheldon’s paintings have been exhibited in several galleries in Winnipeg and Calgary including the Winnipeg Art Gallery and they can now be seen at Medea Gallery in Osborne Village.
In the last five years, Sheldon has been nominated three times for the Best Illustrated Book Of The Year Award in Manitoba and three of the books he has illustrated have been nominated for the McNally Robinson Book For Young People Award.
