Simohn Spearitt
Simohn Spearitt was born in New York and eventually moved west to Los Angeles, CA. Her life journey has taken her to live in London, Santa Fe, New Mexico and finally here at Lakeside. While in New Mexico, Simohn mastered the art of silk painting and designed clothing for her Atelier/Retail space.

Artists such as Imogen Cunningham, Winslow Homer, Titian, Georgia O’Keefe and John Marin, east coast modernist, are her influences. Her work has been described as nature- based, cosmic iconic symbology.
