For March 2026, we are shining the spotlight on ActionSpace artist, Sharon Adokorach, whose vibrant, joyful, and improvisational abstract paintings celebrate colour, choice, and self-expression. Sharon explains: “I like thinking what to draw and making my own designs and choosing my colours and mixing my own. My favourite colour is yellow. You can mix new colours from that.” Her work balances intuition and careful decision-making, transforming her ideas and words into visual narratives.
In recent years, Sharon has increasingly worked on raw, unprimed canvas, lending her paintings a textured, tactile, and sometimes abrasive surface. While she uses a full spectrum of colours, the pop coloured pinks, blues, and greens stand out in particular, alongside earthier, murky tones of purple, orange, and navy. Many of her paintings include direct self-affirmations and statements of independence, giving voice to her perspective as a learning disabled artist.
