As an artist, Shane enjoys exploring a wide range of mediums. Whether painting, sculpting, or working digitally, she loves the challenge of adapting her skills to create something unique.
Her puzzle works are particularly special to her—they require immense patience, both in the creation process and for those who engage with them.
Every piece she crafts is layered with meaning, designed to unfold slowly and reward those who take the time to truly see. It's not just about the final product, but the journey of discovery, both for herself as the creator and for those who experience her work.
