Mary Jill Sheffield
Born and raised in the south by 2 very talented and creative parents. My family was creative we painted and we did drawings, played dress up, lots of baking and decorating. When I was 7 we moved to Atlanta Georgia and at one point my mother opened her own beauty salon in the downstairs of our home. When we were not running the shop we liked to work on creative projects. I can remember hanging wall paper and doing upholstry with my mom. Saturday nights we would draw cartoons and listen to beatles music.
In my early years of school teachers and students would stand around me to watch me draw and color. I liked to do a sort of surrealism which meant that I had to be in a certain frame of mind, almost like a trance to do the art. I was in a gifted art programs for most of my accademic years. In my later teens my family moved back to Jacksonville Florida were I was born. As an adult became marketing executive for a fortune 500 company.
