Biography
Sharma Heylen Silvia
artist

Sharma Heylen Silvia was born in 1989, grew up in Geraldton, WA.
Sharma grew up surfing on her fathers many longboards and over the years grew to love the idea of surfing. She now lives in Perth studying graphic design and illustration, but whenever she heads home, the first thing she looks forward to is a surf with her father.

Sharmas two passions in life: art and the ocean and her favourite medium is watercolour.
"I just love the fluidity and the spontaneity of the paint- you never know what its going to do and its always exciting to see how your work will turn out as it will never be the same. I love drawing the ocean but equally love drawing people and capturing their unique personality and expression. My main aim is to create a piece of art that the viewer can interact with and look at for a long time." Sharma Heylen Silvia
