Designer and Judaic Illustrator Shelley Werner, is the host of Art and Scroll Studio.
(Calgary) – The image on the cover of this month’s Alberta Jewish News is by Shelley Werner, a designer and Judaica Illustrator. She is the moderator and host of Art and Scroll Studio, a live zoom series featuring the makers and creators of Judaica art. An award-winning speaker, she is passionate about integrating Tikun Olam in all things.
Having recently moved from Winnipeg to Calgary she uses bold colors, watercolour and markers to celebrate her Jewish heritage. Her inspiration is also found in the Alberta landscape, which has brought her a new form of meditation on majesty.

Shelly and I met as teenagers in 1972 in Netanya and became fast friends. She moved back to Canada with her family, and I stayed in Israel. She was interested in art even back then. I would love to see more of her work, and perhaps find her after all these years.
