shea costin is a maine-based visual artist.

Messy to begin, masterpiece in the end—at least I think so. I am an acrylic painter based out of Southern Maine who dreams of realities that are out of reach. Not necessarily surreal, but I like to describe my work as abstract and contemporary with an exuberant twist.

In my work I bank on my feelings, artistic motor skills, and sometimes untold stories to drive my creativity until the last stroke. While I gather inspiration from popular culture, nature and straight up imagination; I create with the intent to allow the viewer the option to decide how my paintings provoke them.
