Why Small Businesses Matter
Shop small, do big things for your community
Why Small Businesses Matter puts a spotlight on the local merchants who donate their time, talent, goods, and services for the betterment of our community. The shop local movement spreads virally as local businesses who are “tagged” have the opportunity to share their story!
You're IT Wolfgang painting studio!
Three questions with Sherri Wolfgang, Contemporary Renaissance painter and owner of Wolfgang painting studio.
Painter Sherri Wolfgang is known for her figurative works, which draw on Renaissance painting traditions in combination with Old Master painting techniques. Wolfgang has received critical acclaim for her series statement paintings: Crazy Making, on mental illness; Twisted, on women and cosmetic surgery; Nick.e.lo.de.on, figurative work featuring a male dancer with 16th century mannerist aesthetics; and her most recent series, American Pathos, which examines the millennial generation’s place in society through the lens of Renaissance aesthetic sensibilities.
I've been an artist since childhood and always thought I could earn a living off of my passion. I owned and ran an illustration studio for 25 years (since 1983)and now parlayed it into a painting studio.
