“Whistling Past Eternity” Opening Reception
August 28, 2025 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Asheville artist, David Sheldon, exhibits, for the first time in Western North Carolina, the full range of his work at Spiers Gallery, Brevard College. Sheldon will be exhibiting with sculptor Mark Connelley. “Orion”, one of Sheldon’s ‘Skyworks’ series of sculptures (which was awarded first place last year at the Rosen Sculpture Exhibition, Appalachian State University.) will be on display, plus many other sculptural works. Along with his sculptural works, Sheldon will be exhibiting his large, figurative abstract paintings, expressive landscapes, and works from his ‘Paintings of Paintings’ series. This will also be the first time he will be displaying an installation of “Field Guide to the Birds of North America”, an on-going painting project with over 200 paintings.
