If you haven't been there already you should check out Sheryl Gordon's solo exhibition of Elder Fairy illustrations at Gallery Indigo. Even better, meet the artist at her reception on October 26th from 6-9pm. Visiting fairies include Gormanste (illustration on the left) ElderFairy Healer of Hearts with a Tattered Hole.
Sheryl is one of EWI's emerging artists whose work explores the juxtaposition of fantasy and reality. As a fantasy artist and illustrator Sheryl has created designs and illustrations for organizations and individuals in the New England area. This event is the first solo exhibition of her Elder Fairy illustrations and is borne out of synchronistic events. Nina Tisara of Gallery Indigo and Gordon are both recent graduates of EWI's Art Marketing course. The class work included development of a business plan and Marga Fripp, founder of EWI, linked Tisara's decision to reopen Gallery Indigo with Gordon's plan to promote her ElderFairy theme.
In another example of synchronicity, both Gordon and Tisara were separately encouraged to take the EWI training by artist Wynn Creasey, a previous EWI graduate.
Congratulations on your continued success Sheryl and Nina.
