About Me
- Irene F. Sullivan
- Irene F. Sullivan holds a Master of Arts Degree from the University of Colorado Boulder and a Master of Divinity Degree from Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. She is the recipient of a Fulbright Scholarship and an American Philosophical Society Grant. Sullivan has lived and worked in the Arctic, taught at the university level, served as an Episcopal priest for 10 years and as a nurse practitioner for three decades. Her extensive international research work on circumpolar female shamanism, and the monastic practice of women in Buddhist and Christian traditions over the centuries is a taproot of influence in her studio work as a painter. Her studio is in the forested mountains of Colorado where she resides with her husband. She considers her daily commitment to Classical Dressage riding practice with her horse "Sakebu" part of her studio discipline along with solitary mountain walks accompanied by her fury muse, a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named "Heidegger."
