I am an American artist currently living in Murrieta California. I create mixed media paintings generally with acrylic and may incorporate paper collage and found objects.I use a variety of tools to create textures, line and depth within the paintings to engage the viewer to interact and discover the unique possibilities one may see and encouraged to feel. I use an intuitive approach to each canvas to convey emotional responses of past, present and future
tenses through the form of abstraction
Influenced by thought provoking mysteries of the unknown, I form colorful dreamscapes and visions of
spontaneous splashes of paint that create improvisational worlds within our subconscious universe.
I identify as an artist, drummer/percussionist and am known to write a poem here and there.
I strongly believe I have been born to share this gift with the world and experience the journey of art making
in whichever form I can.

On this website and other forms of social media I intend for Shawn McCain Creative (SMC) to document my creative journey with you so we can try to make sense of this fleeting glimpse, we call art.
