Yoga Warrior Competition

March 1, 2021

I don’t normally go for competitions but this one is an amazing opportunity! If I get enough public votes for I am a Yoga Warrior my work will be featured in the gorgeous Yoga Journal Magazine and I win $10k to hold a fundraising art exhibition to benefit Live Violence Free, our local women’s shelter. …

New Online Print Shop

I’m working on a new online shop for my patrons to order custom Art of Ashtanga prints on metal, wood and paper.

The shop is on the Facebook/Instagram platform, and is taking a bit of time to figure out, but I’m having fun photographing my metal prints outside in the snow with our daughter (She actually took some of the pictures for me!)

I’ve got some tiny magnetic prints and some little desk ones with kick stands to photograph, but there’s a few in the store now that we managed to get shot in the sun today 🙂

Prices range from $45 – $430 for archival, museum quality reproductions of original art. They’re ready to hang, with a 1/4″ block on the back to push it away from the wall and cast a beautiful shadow.

Framed and/or matted fine art prints are available on silver paper and matte archival paper starting at $135.00 +tax & shipping.

Custom sizes and poses made to order at no extra cost. Check out the whole collection here.

8% of the profit will be donated to Live Violence Free.

Update: Fundamental Freedoms Exhibition coming to Oakland May 2021

June 7, 2020

By Shelley Zentner

I spoke to Ron Scroveni, owner of the Warehouse 416 Gallery recently about my show in October. With the revolution going on all over the US, which are causing a lot of damage in places, and the COVID19 lockdown I wondered whether we’d still be doing the show. I’d actually written it off in my …

Mural Commission: ‘The Metastases’

December 28, 2020

By Shelley Zentner

Aside from a couple of finishing touches that needed to be done when the paint dries…the mural is finished. This is by far the most ambitious piece I’ve ever done. Two years of research, design and composition. Nine months of detailed oil painting. 12 x 5 feet. One very happy patron. This commissioned painting is …
