Artists in Their Studios Invites You to View Paintings and Sculptures at the Emerson and Visit Their Studio

Oil landscapes, figurative art, clay sculptures…the halls of the Inn at the Emerson have been transformed into a fine arts gallery featuring the original art of Lisa Pressman, Christie Scheele and Allan Skriloff of Artists in Their Studios. All three have highly unique and mature bodies of work, and have exhibited widely and been collected nationally and internationally.  Leisurely wander through the Inn corridors and view the wide sampling of fine art on display, then take advantage of a rare opportunity to see and meet the artists in their intimate work space.  Each studio is located within a 20-minute drive of the Emerson.

Simply speak with the Emerson concierge to arrange an appointment to meet with one or more of the artists.  View their works in progress, find out what inspires and motivates them and learn more about their backgrounds and passion for creating art.  Interested in their original artwork for sale?  Purchases can be arranged during your visit or by viewing their websites (listed below), making a selection and contacting the artist personally.
