Artist

Born Georgina Thorne in the town of North Sydney, I have always enjoyed drawing.

I seriously began painting when my four lovely children were grown . I took numerous night courses, mostly in acrylic. Six years after the death of my first husband I married Bob Shaw  & relocated to Truro. I was a member of the Truro Art society for 7 years &  entered numerous paintings for exhibition at McCarthy Hall, at Colchester Community college.

Since 2014, I experienced the passing of both my beautiful daughters, still unbelievable.  I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren, knitting, gardening and sewing dresses & shorts for children overseas. We are  ‘Sewers 4 Children’, and have been sending clothes to children for 10 years. However painting is my greatest relaxation . I enjoy photographing nature & painting the pictures.

My motto is take one day at a time & believe that god is in control .
