Sheri Grube will present her collection of works in a solo exhibit at the Hastings Art Center in Hastings, MN. Art is Sheri Grube’s passion, and it provides an unexpected benefit: the act of painting often reduces the tremors and muscle spasms she experiences due to dystonia, a neurological disorder. “When the dystonia is bad, it’s like a charley horse cramp in my neck or jaw that doesn’t go away. It’s there 24/7.” Since 2005 Grube has worked as a part-time visual artist and “full-time dystonia awareness advocate.” She is partnering with the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation (DMRF) to support research toward a dystonia cure through sales of her work.
The Hastings Art Center is located at 216 Fourth Street East, Hastings, MN 55033. Gallery hours: Closed Sunday, Mon-Thurs 3pm-6pm, Fri-Sat closed (opened during events) phone:651-437-4320.
About the Artist: Sheri Grube Sheri is an acrylic artist, who loves to incorporate textures and colors into her art while delving into deep emotions. Her pieces are often vivid, imaginative, and expressive. Many who view her art feel her definitive passion. Art helps transfer her to another part of the world and sometimes the universe, as she draws reference from the natural world around her. Creating art takes her mind off of chronic pain.
Sheri has a rare neurological movement disorder called DYSTONIA. This affects her jaw, neck, shoulder and hand. Dystonia is a chronic, often painful, neurological disorder characterized by extreme muscle spasms causing involuntary movements and postures in the body and limbs. She finds that while she is tremoring, picking up a paintbrush makes the tremor stop. The physical act of painting calms her soul as well as her body.
Sheri lives with her husband, children and dog Rosie. She has been creating art for over 10 years. Her work has been exhibited and collected throughout Minnesota. To learn more about Sheri visit: www.artsherigrube. com Contact: Instagram: @art_by_sheri_grube Facebook: Art by Sheri Grube
