Shannon MacDonald creates brilliant,
energetic, hyperrealistic art that leaves
her fans awestruck. Her work adorns
guitars, drums, motorcycles, boats and
cars; and she's renowned for her canvases,
posters and illustrations that portray
celebrities from the worlds of sports and
entertainment. Her paintings hang at the
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Hard
Day's Night Hotel in Liverpool. She's been
honored with the formal title "The World's
Greatest Beatles Artist" by the Lord Mayor
of Liverpool and touted on television
shows including Good Morning America
and Oprah. To create such works of art,
Shannon now paints exclusively with PPG's

turned to music—the guitar. Eventually
she started a sign company, and a friend
