Sheep Jones was born and grew up in Waterville, Maine and now lives and works in Belfast.

Her paintings, made of oil and wax, begin with layers. From her past work in watercolor and wax, she has held on to the opportunities that mixing transparent colors offers. Layers add extra interest, leaving swatches of colors in their wake. These are perfect tidbits for the imagination. Jones is always looking for the puzzle pieces to suggest a narrative. Disparate images finally come together and start to hint at some kind of sense.
