Sharon Spiak is a renowned romance novel cover artist with a career spanning decades.

Beginning her journey as a costume designer and fashion illustrator, she developed her unique style while apprenticing with the well known romance cover artist, Pino Daeni.

Her style caught the attention of publishers, who entrusted her with the task of creating these iconic historical romance book covers using oils on linen. Her work has graced countless titles by best selling authors of the genre including collaborations with the legendary "Fabio".

Today's romance novel covers are digitally rendered, making these vintage, painted historical covers collectable, unique works of art. Sharon's art defines and epitomizes this genre as an iconic pop culture phenomena as seen in the most recent 25th anniversary publication of Flaunt Magazine, in which Sharon was commissioned to reimagine her original works using current young movie stars.

During this retrospective show, at our new location in Eldred, NY

we would love to introduce you to the original and exquisite art by Sharon Spiak. We will also display & sell collectable book covers that each painting was made for. We will show some sketches of her process. And if you can visit the gallery, you will be able to see the slides of Sharon’s work in progress. We will be projecting these slides during the opening and during the open hours of the gallery. We are truly excited for this show.
