Aurora Shea

North Charleston, SC

My name is Aurora Mae Shea, and I was born in Connecticut before moving to Charleston. Art has been a calling of mine since I was 5, especially after my parents divorced. As the eldest child and grandchild, expectations for me have always been higher. I've always used art as an escape from my situation. My inspiration for the different forms of art I create comes from so many different places, like self-expression, nature, and current-day issues. I find that through my other hobbies, like listening to music, running, and photography, art is just about everywhere.
