A native Houstonian, Sharon Kopriva launched her artistic career in 1985 with the exhibition "Fresh Paint" at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. In the past twenty-five years she has exhibited her art in major cities in the United States, Mexico, Peru, India, Cuba, China and throughout Europe. Some of her notable exhibitions include a solo show curated by the legendary Walter Hopps at the Menil Collection in 2001 and a retrospective of her work shown at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, curated by Bradley Sumrall in 2012, entitled "From Terra to Verde". Kopriva is deeply influenced by a varied set of inspirations, including her Catholic upbringing, awe-inspiring nature, and her continued spiritual journey.
