  • Artist (Draughtsman),
  • Artist (Painter)
Painter and teacher, was born in Cork, Ireland and came to Victoria with her parents. The myth of Sheppard as a prodigy persisted throughout her long career, driven by the early mistaken belief that she painted her first acclaimed portrait at the age of 16. Although mainly a portrait painter, she also painted altar pieces and landscapes.
