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.

Simohn studied at the San Francisco Art Institute, where she worked with plein air master, Sam Colburn.  Sam Colburn was one of the influential “California-5” group of artist.

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.
