Latest News: 
My art to be installed in a NJ-based Children's Emergency Services Center


April Newsletter from Artist Lynnette Shelley
www.LynnetteShelley.com

Last year I was contacted by Madison Art Consultingabout doing a project with a Children's Emergency Services Center in Deptford, NJ. Although I can't officially announce what the name of that medical center is just yet, the project is moving forward and prints of four of my artworks have been sized up into large canvas prints that will go into this space. The art will be installed in June. I'll be able to name drop that venue at that time when their press releases come out. I am very happy to see my work go to this Children's medical facility and hopefully brighten up the space for its visitors.

But below are the four artworks of mine in the space. The originals of all of them, except the elephant (which is sold), are still available if anyone is interested in purchasing some of my work. Email me atlynnette@lynnetteshelley.com for more information or visit www.lynnetteshelley.com to view more of my artwork.
