About the host

Hosted by Shenell Gordon

Host profile image
I was born and raised in the Virgin Islands. I'm a naturalist and environmentalist, animal lover and advocate, entrepreneur, and creative daughter of an artist. I try to maintain creative eyes and an open heart; experiencing the world through artistic and cultural exploration.

By presenting Gordon's Island Art Loft, I wish to share my father's life as an artist and creative visionary. I hope your stay at the loft will influence you to dream big, as his life has inspired me. Referencing the words of the great Vincent Van Gogh; "I dream my paintings then I paint my dreams" .... come paint your dreams in paradise!

One Love, Shenell Gordon
