Initially Shirley studied drawing and painting at the Judith White Art Centre in Narrabeen. She later joined a landscape painting class with Robyn Culley and exhibited her work at the Tramshed, Narrabeen and with the North Shore Art Society.
Having always had an interest in botany, Shirley has now combined that with painting and is studying Advanced Botanical Drawing & Painting with
international tutor and artist Leonie Norton.
