Jump to Comments

Jewelry designer Dee Sharp has opened a gallery called Art from the Heart.

It offers work from regional artisans whose work is not found elsewhere in Western North Carolina, including Christian-themed wood and mosaic work, bird decor, word tiles and Sharp’s own sculpted jewelry designs in sterling and gold.

“People traveling through our area want to see handcrafted items that are unique and reasonably priced,” Sharp said. “Increasingly, local customers want to choose something that evokes a sentimental or spiritual meaning, so I’ve focused on these goals.”

The gallery also serves as a public studio for Sharp’s jewelry work.

Art from the Heart is at 114 Cherry St. For more information, visit www.deejewelry.com or call 628-0520.
