Hi! My name is Shannon Soldner and I am an artist. I began my artistic pursuits later in life. I always knew that if given the opportunity, I would fully immerse myself in the art world. What was once a wild dream has now become a passionate endeavor.
As a narrative figure painter, I am most inspired by the stories people tell. It brings me great joy to be able to translate shared human experiences into a visual space that can potentially transcend words.
I am thrilled to be able to pursue my passion as a profession. My next journey will take me to Spain, where I will embark on the Camino del Santiago with the goal of creating paintings of the fellow travelers and pilgrims I meet along the way. I look forward to sharing these experiences and artwork with you.
I am excited to announce a new project that explores the personal stories and journeys of those who walk the Camino de Santiago. This ancient 500-mile pilgrimage route in Spain has been traveled for centuries by both religious and secular pilgrims. I will be walking the Camino del Norte and documenting my journey through video and social media while also interviewing and sketching portraits of fellow pilgrims. These sketches will serve as the reference for a series of finished paintings that will be exhibited in 2024. This project aims to showcase the centuries-old tradition of Spanish pilgrimage through the stories and experiences of individuals on their journey today.
