About the Item

Testa Rossa by Adrienne Sherman. The artist creates works that celebrate the mystery of life, anchored in history, and inspired by dreams, everyday magic, and stories passed from one generation to the next. Her unique narrative paintings, grounded in realism, are strongly influenced by the Italian Renaissance, and like most enduring fairytales, they balance truth with tragedy. In her "Endangered" series, the artist focuses on birds and animals at risk and on the precarious times in which we live. Painted in 2025. Professionally framed ebony. 'Testa Rossa' oil on canvas, 16 x 12 inches. Presented by Andra Norris Gallery, Burlingame, CA.

Helene and Eric Bess are a team who have been collaborating for over 20 years. Both are professional artists with extensive experience in both the commercial and fine art fields. They presently work out of their studio in Florida, creating original art for gallery display, fine art crafts and taking commissions for murals & embellishments. Helene was born in Canada in 1949. She studied art in Europe as a young adult and attended Phoenix Pratt School of Design in New York and St. Petersburg Community College in Florida. She worked for advertising agencies and freelance art projects such as theater design and t-shirt designs for several companies. She owned and operated an art studio (“Artistic Endeavors”) in Melbourne, Fl. for five years. She started doing murals and embellishments (residential and commercial) from 1992 till present. She considers her early life in Europe the major source of her artistic influence as well as the works of Modigliani. Eric was born in Missouri in 1950. He started drawing literally as an infant and has never stopped. He was taking commissions for book covers & wall designs in his teens and studied art at Auburn University and The University of Alabama. He taught art in public schools in Alabama in the ‘70s. He worked as art director at Huntsville Educational Television for 6 years, as art director at Southern Sportswear in Daytona for 9 years, at Creative Signs & Designs in Flagler, Fl. for 6 years, and as a freelance artist and co-owner (with his wife Helene) of “BessStudio” (formerly “Artistic Innovations Inc.”) since 1998.
