Sharon had relocated to Mexico in 2010.  Before then she had visited Guatemala and was inspired by the Mayan figure sculpture that she had seen there and then saw again in Mexico, and in their museums.  Those abstracted indigenous human figures depicted emotions and were usually made of ceramic or stone.  The year 2013 she began painting portraits and soon realized they had been inspired by the Mayan sculptures she had seen.  Even though her works were quite different from the sculptures, they still had an indigenous feel to them, depicted emotions and had questioning expressions.  She gave all of them large black blank eyes.  The eyes appeared to go very deep into the skull.  She believed it was like looking into the Soul of the indigenous people.  She gave these paintings names of Mayan Gods.
