Hi, I’m Shelly - an artist, content creator and storyteller from Nuremberg, Germany.

Art
My art grows from a meditative, intuitive process. I work with acrylic inks, natural pigments and mixed media on canvas, often guided by ritual, rhythm and inner emotion. Nature and spirit are my greatest teachers. The quiet language of seasons, symbolism and transformation shapes everything I create. Beyond original paintings, I also translate my visual language into prints, wearable pieces and creative objects - ways for my art to live beyond the canvas and enter everyday life.

Background
Although I studied Business Administration with a focus on Marketing, my heart has always belonged to art. Drawing and creating were my deepest passions as a child. After a long pause, I returned to my practice with a renewed sense of intuition and spiritual purpose - weaving unseen energies and soul connection into my work.

Content & Creation
Beyond my paintings, I share stories in a different form - through fashion, lifestyle and everyday aesthetics. With my Instagram community of over 275,000 followers at @shelly.curry, I capture moments of style, ritual and creativity, weaving them into a visual diary.

Community
At the AURA art collective in Nuremberg, I share a creative home with five fellow artists - a space where we explore, exhibit and let inspiration flow in community.
Together with my partner Kim, I also co-run Reinstich, a tattoo & art studio in the heart of Nuremberg. It’s a space where tattoo artistry and contemporary art meet. Where I curate exhibitions, shape our art shop, and create events that connect people with creativity in many forms.

I’m grateful to invite you into my world.
