Hi! I have been drawing and painting ever since I was old enough to hold a crayon or paintbrush. I majored in art education and art history at The University of Massachusetts, Amherst where I received my BFA. I was also fortunate enough to study at Saint Louis University Madrid where I took actual art classes in the Museo Nacional del Prado. From there I went on for my MA, majoring in fine arts, at Kean University. I continued my education at Seton Hall University where I received my superintendent certificate, supervisor certificate, and principal certificate. I was able to write my dissertation on the importance of art in the schools. Art has always been my passion. I started a company called Just Name It (@shawnjustnameit on Instagram) 15 years ago. My very talented designer friend, Lynne Hirsh of @lhdesign on Instagram needed art work to complete a room she had designed. Her client commissioned me for a painting and just like that, Shawn Goldstein Art was formed! It is so rewarding being able to do what I love. I'm very fortunate! I have my 3 kids: Jake, Skylar and Riley, my husband Jared, along with my parents Anne and Barry Cohen, and family and friends cheering me on! This journey has only just begun! Please scroll through my photos. I hope my art makes you just as happy as it makes me! Thanks for all your love and support! xx Shawn
