Shelli Fenske

Mixed media, Sculpture, Photography and Jewelry

Shelli Fenske is a retired art teacher who brings the same enthusiasm from her teaching to her art.

Since childhood creating with my hands has always given me purpose and happiness.  I have dabbled in many different mediums and I continue to work with: acrylic, mixed media, sculpture, photography, and jewelry making.
 My jewelry business, Earth, Chrome, & Wire was established in 2005. My designs are inspired by the fossils or semi-precious stones I incorporate. My many visits as a child to the western part of North Dakota are the inspiration for the warm colors and western flair of my jewelry pieces.   A description for my work as a jeweler would be, casual yet classic.
