Artist Shelby Fischer by Lost At E Minor

Shelby Fischer is a mixed media artist living in Central Virginia. Her work is beautifully realized, laborious in its detail and subtle in its colorings. "My mixed media collages and assemblages blend surrealism with otherworldly imagery," she says. "Each work is a fragment of an intuitive story—odd and mysterious narratives that are familiar echoes of a long lost, often twisted, fantasy or nightmare."
