Prindle’s work to be showcased at museum
The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum is proud to showcase local artist and business owner Shara Prindle’s creations in a special exhibition, running Friday, Jan. 26 through Sunday, Feb. 25.
Shara Dawn (Clark) Prindle’s artistic journey is a testament to the transformative power of creativity and faith. Born and raised in Coshocton, she discovered her love for art in the most unexpected place – the quiet moments in church at The Salvation Army, armed with paper and pencil from her grandmother. From early doodles in church to her first Jon Gnagy art kit, Prindle taught herself to draw using step-by-step workbooks and Bob Ross’ guidance. Prindle’s mother instilled in her a spirit of creativity and independence, unknowingly setting the stage for a lifelong artistic exploration. Married since 1985 to a supportive husband, Prindle cherishes her family – a daughter, son-in-law, and two grandsons who are the beating heart of her life.
Owning and operating The Frame Shop since 1994 has been a divine blessing, allowing Prindle to immerse herself in the world of art daily and live by the teachings of the Word of God. Her artistic passion finds expression in various mediums – sketching, pen and ink, oils, and acrylics – with a particular affinity for capturing the beauty of landscapes, a genuine reflection of God’s creation. Throughout the years, Prindle has fearlessly ventured beyond her comfort zone, allowing her art to evolve and surprise. As she embarks on the next leg of her artistic journey, one can’t help but anticipate the beauty and inspiration that will unfold, making Prindle’s exhibit a celebration of a lifetime dedicated to the canvas and the Creator.
Support for this special exhibit was provided by The Ohio Arts Council with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence, and cultural enrichment for all Ohioans. The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum is open Friday to Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. and Sundays are free admission to Coshocton County residents.
The museum is located at 300 N. Whitewoman St. in Historic Roscoe Village, Coshocton. For information, contact JHM at 740-622-8710, email jhmuseum@jhmuseum.org, or visit www.jhmuseum.org.
