In the beginning of her artistic career, Sharon Teabo, who has a BFA in graphic design and an MFA in illustration, worked as an artist-in-residence and an artist-in-the-schools. Teabo's artwork has been displayed internationally and ranges from ink to acrylic in terms of both medium and style (from realism to abstraction). Although her art has been compared to Escher's, a reviewer praised her as being exceptional and a master of color following one of her exhibitions in New York's SOHO neighborhood. Teabo's creations have appeared in books, journals, and several private collections. For numerous years, she worked as a commercial illustrator, taught academic art classes (undergraduate and graduate), and offered workshops in a variety of mediums. She also displayed her own work. Teabo was actively involved with The International Visual Literacy Association (IVLA), serving as an officer and board member for many years. She wrote articles for the organization's Book of Selected Readings and semi-annual, Journal of Visual Literacy based on talks she gave at conferences. Teabo presently resides in Utah but has lived in VA, WV, and KY.
