Polly Sharp is a plein air oil landscape artist. She has lived her entire life in Oklahoma. Her paternal great grandmother walked the Trail of Tears with the Cherokee, and her mother's parents pioneered the prairie, coming from Ireland and settling near Miami, Oklahoma. Polly paints the Oklahoma landscape plein air in oils on canvas. Going outside to capture our rolling hills, rambling creeks, magnificent sunrises, big sky cloudscapes, and gentle prairie grasses is her joy. Keeping her gear always ready and loaded, she often rises early to catch the early morning light. On the way to a scouted location, often something will catch her eye and she stops to paint there instead. Polly has been painting plein air about 10 years. She is a self-taught artist, taking private lessons from well-known artists she admires, and online studies. She has studied and taken workshops from Cletus Smith, Rick McClure, Phil Starke, Kelli Folsom, Scott Christensen, and Skip Whitcomb. Polly's works have won awards and been featured in many locations across Oklahoma and the United States.

“I also will be donating 10% to the stroke recovery art therapy program at Jim Thorpe Integris Rehabilitation Center. During COVID I suffered a massive stroke. I was unable to walk or talk correctly and certainly not paint. They let me bring my easel up and paint in my room. And my physical therapy included carrying a 25-pound backpack with all my gear around the 3rd floor of Integris. I am forever grateful to God and that program. I would like my buyers to know that part of the proceeds also goes to artists stroke recovery.”
