Krista Sheldon Featured at Carefree Fine Art & Wine Festival
From the official press release:
Krista Sheldon’s career started in the textile industry, but after ten years she decided she was ready to explore new avenues in the art industry and began painting. She creates original works on canvas, using a variety of paints including acrylics, oils and watercolors, among others. Her pieces often incorporate multiple layering of media creating depth and dimension that are unique to her work. She also uses special techniques to accomplish an aged-by-time effect; the end result is truly extraordinary. Krista’s piece “Persimmons” was selected by Thunderbird Artists to be the Carefree 2009 limited edition print.
Along with Krista Sheldon, more than 165 juried fine artisans from throughout the United States and abroad will be coming together for this spectacular event. Paintings in all mediums and subjects will be on display, in addition to impressive small, medium and life-sized sculptures, sparkling hand blown glass, authentic rope baskets, wood, clay, metal, stone, one of a kind handcrafted jewelry, exceptional photography and much more.
The festival also marks the return of Arizona’s largest wine tasting event; participating wineries will be AZ Wine Company, A International Wines, Kokopelli and Page Springs Cellars. AZ Wine Company will also have a variety of micro-brews available for sampling. For $10.00, patrons will receive an engraved souvenir wine or beer glass with six tasting tickets, allowing them to enjoy the combination of fine wine, art, savory food, exquisite chocolate, and live musical entertainment featuring Arvel Bird, all together for one unforgettable experience.
