Shelley at the Sugar Land Art & Music Festival 2026

On the weekend of November 6-8, 2026, I attended my first art festival! I was accepted into the Sugar Land Arts & Music Festival over the summer, and then spent months painting as much as I can, purchasing a tent and display equipment, doing test set ups, printing fine art prints and getting everything ready for the big weekend. It was a lot of work and I was really nervous, but everything went really well and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting all of the festival goers and fellow artists. Thank you to everyone who came out to support us!

In celebration of the event, I'm having a sale on select originals. The sale will be active until the end of the day on Sunday, 11/15! So, if you came in person and saw something you like, check out the sale page to see if your favorite is there. You can also find all available originals here.

What's Next?

I learned so much from attending my first art festival and my brain in spinning with ideas! Now that I have 10 paintings in my National Parks collection, I'm going to work on ideas for products to highlight that collection. At the festival, my greeting cards were very popular, so look for those soon on the website. I also got a lot of positive feedback on the metal prints, so I'll be getting more of those up soon as well as a few new products (maybe even a few puzzles)!

As far as new paintings, I'll probably take a break from the National Parks for a bit and focus on a few different themes that I just love, which include water/beach scenes, sailing/boats and trees! If there's something else you'd love to see, feel free to drop me a note. That includes letting me know if you want to see a National Park painting that I haven't yet done (I'll be getting back to that in 2027).

HAPPY CUSTOMERS

Painting: Boats at Harbor - Shelley's art is truly beautiful. Her use of color and technique come alive on the canvas! Her interpretation of the scene is akin to the Impressionists of the nineteenth and twentieth century, yet she has found a way to make the technique all her own. We adore her work and will certainly keep our eye out for more from this wonderful, talented artist!

~ Hank Lankford

Painting: Scotland Puffins - When I look at The Puffins in Scotland It stirs my senses, looking at the painting I’m drawn to sun dancing on the water. I smell the sea and feel the cool ocean breeze. I see the cliffs and I can feel the soft earth beneath my feet. I look at the Puffins and I feel curiosity and Joy. I’m transported.

~ Alan Sutherland

Painting: Sailing Serene - It's a simple sailboat on a calm orange, peach, and salmon colored sea. But it stood out to me. What stands out to me with Shelley's work is her use of bold color. In simple land-, town-, or sea-scapes, there is often a small detail like a sailboat, a rowboat, or some other sign of peaceful life that tells me things are OK. Her pet portraits are beautiful captures of the fur baby's personality. I'm glad her art is in my home, and I look forward to adding to the collection.

Painting: Woman Playing Guitar in the Forest - Everything about this painting is just magical. With the colors, to the shading, the painting is pleasing to look at. Fits perfectly in my room!
