By evoking the true nature of children, using animated expressions indicative of their growing characters, she produces authentic rather than cherubic likeness. Adults are portrayed with a sensitivity that can express a range of personalities. Each painting provides acute insight into its subject, presenting the earnestness, power, enthusiasm, or charisma that makes them who they are.
Her published articles have appeared in The Portrait Signature magazine, and as a quoted source in the Wall Street Journal, and Art Business News. Previous exhibitions include the New York Society of Portrait Artists, The Pen & Brush Club, in New York City. The Connecticut and Atlanta Society of Portrait Artists, the Kent Art Association, Kent, Connecticut. The St. Louis Artists’ Guild. The Las Vegas Arts Council, Las Vegas, NM, Stage Gallery, Merrick, New York, and the Armory Art Center, in West Palm Beach, Florida. Shelley’s memberships also include The American Society of Portrait Artists, Portrait Society of America, The Portrait Society of Atlanta, the East End Arts Council and the Artists Alliance of East Hampton. Her BFA is from Parsons School of Design, in New York City. Her paintings now hang in numerous private collections extending from California, to New York, and London. |
