Today we’d like to introduce you to Anne Shackelford
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Born and raised in Austin, Texas, I’ve always been drawn to creating magical, beautiful things. My artistic journey has led me through many mediums—jewelry, costume design, painting, woodwork, resin, pyrography, and more—driven by an endless need to create and explore.
Inspired by my own healing journey and the wisdom of spiritual mentors, I infuse my work with high vibrations and intention, incorporating sound, prayer, smudging, essential oils, crystals, and sacred geometry. In my yoga and art studio, I continue to expand my skills, crafting pieces that not only captivate the eye but uplift the spirit and inspire transformation.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Like any artist, my journey has had its challenges, but each obstacle has pushed me to evolve, refine my craft, and deepen my connection to my work. I choose to focus on creativity, resilience, and the joy of bringing something meaningful into the world.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am a multimedia artist creating work that harmonizes with nature’s blueprint, infusing high vibrations and intentional energy into every piece. My art incorporates sacred geometry, sound, prayer, smudging, essential oils, and natural elements to uplift and inspire.
What sets me apart is the deep energetic foundation of my work. Each piece is not just visually striking but designed to resonate at a higher frequency—helping to create balance, healing, and harmony for those who experience it.
I’m most proud of the way my art supports others on their personal journeys. Whether through my artwork, yoga, or sound offerings, I aim to create immersive experiences that guide people toward inner peace and alignment. My work is a bridge—connecting beauty, energy, and intention to those who seek a deeper connection with themselves and the world around them.
So, before we go, how can our readers or others connect or collaborate with you? How can they support you?
There are many ways to collaborate and connect with my work. I welcome commissions, where I create custom art pieces infused with personal intentions, energy work, and sacred design elements tailored to the client. I also love collaborating with fellow artists, healers, and wellness practitioners to create immersive experiences that blend art, sound, and movement for deep transformation.
For those who want to support my work, attending events, collecting artwork, or sharing my offerings with others helps spread the energy and intention behind what I create. I’m always open to new opportunities that align with my vision, whether that’s exhibitions, partnerships, or creative collaborations that inspire healing and connection.
If my work resonates with you, let’s connect and explore how we can co-create something meaningful!
