Biography

My name is Sheauwei "Shews" Pidd. I'm an artist and entertainer. I grew up with a pencil and paintbrush in my hand. For as long as I can remember, art has been my passion in life. I mostly work in Acrylics these days, but I venture into pencil/pen work and mixing mediums. Sharing art brings me joy. Commissioned pieces are my favorite works to create, it gives me a way of connecting to people. Whether its creating art, teaching yoga or dancing, my desire in life is to spread love and creativity in hopes of making this world a little better, starting with myself and those of whom I connect with.

I explore different forms of art, building a repertoire that includes freelance illustration, commissioned works, graphic arts, live painting and hula hoop/fire performances. My art has an eclectic style, drawing from early years of pop influences and graffiti evolving and merging psychedelic and middle-eastern inspirations. Received certification as a 200-Hour Yoga Instructor, currently working on my 500-hour certification at the Yoga Teacher Training Institute based on Long Island, Queens. I study primarily Hatha yoga, but blend power and flow; creating a balanced practice for body and mind. I teach an "Intro to Hoop Dance" class once a week and fully love spreading the joy expressive dancing brings. My other dance hobbies include poi, fan and fire dancing.
