My "Mad Clown Sun," 2019. Watercolor and gouache on paper, image size 3 x 3 inches. For the ThinkSmall10 Biennial at Artspace in Richmond, VA, opening Nov. 7. I decided not to do the companion moon to this sun that I'd posted a sketch for a while back.
My sketches in ballpoint pen for planned pair of watercolor/gouache paintings,"Glad Clown Sun" and "Sad Clown Moon." Finished works will be no larger than 3 x 3 in., as required for the upcoming "ThinkSmall10" exhibition at Artspace in Richmond, VA. ©2019 Sheryl Humphrey.

Very pleased to announce a new exhibition that I'm a part of, at the Staten Island Museum: "Field Notes: Seed Stories and the Power of Plants." It features artworks and seed histories from Hudson Valley Seed Co., including my painting "Lady of the Rainbow Chard" (see photo); documentary videos of Staten Island gardeners by Jay Weichun; photograms of local flora by Gale Wisdom; and museum botanical specimens selected by the Greenbelt Native Plant Center. ~~"These four projects explore the cultural, artistic, and scientific impact of collecting plant life. In doing so, they reveal narratives of resilience, fragility, and transformation. Field Notes speaks to the heritage embedded in the flora around us." -- from the Museum. Opening Reception: Saturday, April 13, 12pm - 2pm.
Sunbeam dramatically drawing my attention to a stack of books yet to be read. [My photo.]
I’m delighted that my story “Flora’s Lexicon” is included in this new anthology from Egaeus Press:

"It can be ordered now for £36.00, inclusive of postage worldwide. See www.egaeuspress.com/The_Book_of_Flowering.html for more details.
