Sharon Mooradian

Artist Statement

Since 1997 Sharon Mooradian has been designing and hand-painting unique furniture and accessories for the home. Unfinished chairs, tables, frames and boxes are transformed with paint and accented with a variety of found objects such as jewelry findings, knobs, lamp finials, crystals, cabochons and pearls. This unconventional use of disparate elements, along with her sense of play, yields a finished piece that is infused with whimsy and charm. Much attention to detail goes into Sharon's work and the crafting is meticulous. Genuine 22 KT gold leaf can be found on most of the trinket boxes. Designs run the gamut from fun and funky to classic and contemporary. There's something in her work for everyone. Most of her designs are one of a kind because she has more fun trying something new with each piece. Sharon is a member of the American Craft Council.
