Shawn D Augustson is a US Army veteran.

Shawn D. Augustson is a multidisciplinary artist working in the areas of painting, photography, sculpture and pottery. Having had no professional art training gives him the encouragement and freedom to simply create from his heart.

Shawn’s exploration into the arts came after serving in combat with the US Army in Iraq from 2004-2006. Upon returning home from the war, he was diagnosed with PTSD, Anxiety and Major Depressive Disorder. Art became therapy for him which he used as a way to express the obtrusive thoughts and emotions he was experiencing. He refers to this work as “Post Traumatic Expression”.
