Sheila Craft was born in Wimbledon, Surrey, and was educated in Guildford and graduated in Mathematics from Reading University.
For ten tears she concentrated on her career in mathematics before she discovered that she had a talent for painting.
Slowly, art superseded science. She moved to Pembrokeshire 14 years ago, to run a holiday cottage business in the picturesque village of Porthgain.
Now Sheila had a wealth of scenes waiting to be painted on her very doorstep. Her love and understanding of the mythical quality of the landscape are very evident in her work, and she achieves effortlessly the luminosity of light so special and individual to this part of North Pembrokeshire.
