Reader support matters more than ever
We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
We’re covering an artist who paints horses, ranchers, and golfers. And she’s showing in a Scottsdale gallery.
Sound awful? Trust us on this one — it’s really not. In fact, artist Sherri Belassen is pretty spectacular. She seamlessly weaves a southwestern-inspired color palette with a stunning manipulation of spatial geometry that blends the dusty charm of desert imagery with contemporary abstraction.
In other words, she paints pretty. Plus, she often uses non-cowboy-ish subject matter in her works – like surfers, athletes and dancers – to keep things fresh.
