Sheila Fox is a mixed-media artist who resides in Louisville, KY, originally from Chicago, IL. She has been drawing for well over twenty years, but has been painting since 2016. She signs her works under the artist name GodivaGoddess
Her motivation is rooted simply by being a Black Woman in America. She focused most of her life attending to work and supporting her family, but has always known, at a soul-level, she was an artist. Her work is unique and will make a statement that you simply cannot miss. She specializes in capturing the timeless essence of black women; and tackles the beauty within history, race, power and repression.
Sheila always wanted to attend an art school but was not financially able to. This enabled her to be her own teacher; becoming skilled in using different mediums, paints, brushes and canvases. Those skills brought her artistic expressions to life.
In her words:
“I’m a mother of 4 beautiful children; 2 girls and 2 boys. In her words: Full time Welder/Fabricator; and proud mother of four beautiful, smart, loving children; two girls & two boys. Art is a true passion for me, reminding me of my children; it’s something I can’t live life without it…”
