Bill Shelley is a multimedia artist in Santa Rosa.

"Being able to risk failure in art is an important ingredient for success. Art-making involves a balance of conscious decisions and gut instincts. Sometimes all that is required to get a piece to the finish line is the subtraction or addition of a single element. Or sometimes it’s better to gather up what you’ve learned and start over! In any case, the creative path always presents an exciting challenge!”
