Shannon Connolly Creates

Patreon Facebook Instagram Twitter Ko-fi Redbubble Shop Hello! My name is Shannon Connolly and I'm a freelance artist from Maryland. I have a bachelors degree in Art from Notre Dame of Maryland University. Currently I am focusing on using watercolor, oil pastels, and digital mediums. My art uses bold and bright colors, dramatic shadows, and intricate shapes. When I'm not making art, I'm creating in other ways. I'm an avid knitter and seamstress. I love learning new ways to create! My other passions include fairy-tales, mythology, astronomy, and ancient history. When I'm giving my mind a break, I enjoy video games, anime, sci-fi, fantasy, and Disney. Thank you for visiting!

Here's a preview of my Patreon Rewards for October! I've made a printable Paper Doll of my recent Witch as well as a new version of the Fox and Witch painting that I am offering as a digital desktop Wallpaper! ⁠ ⁠ I am so excited about this months rewards and I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I enjoyed making them! I hope to continue to make more paper dolls in the coming months to offer! ⁠

My Patreon offers time-lapses of my process, early access to WIP’s and finished works before Social Media, glimpses into my sketchbook, and now digital goodies such as wallpapers and printable paperdolls!

Zelda is up next! 

[shannonconnollycreates]

Finished! I hope you like her! I really like the story book vibe this painting has. I might make a sequel painting so she has a friend. Or I might make it a series and do all the seasons? What do you think?
