Sheila also did collaborative printing with Rauschenberg, Frankenthaler, Motherwell, Arakawa, Segal, Wegman, Shields, and many others. In 1990 she was honored with a 25 year master printers show at Rutgers Zimmerli Art Museum in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In January 1994, assisted by artist friends, Sheila developed a new monoprinting process utilizing the silk screen medium, yet enabling the artist to work directly on the silk using almost all of the drawing tools they are used to using on paper. Art on the Net is a collective of artists helping each other to come up on the Internet and share their works on the World Wide Web. Artists create and maintain studios and rooms in the gallery where they show their works and share about themselves.

Our studio grew out of Maurel Press originated in 1955 by artists Sheila and Ary Marbain. It opened as a custom screen printing shop specializing in printing with contemporary artists. Sheila had studied art at Black Mountain College in North Carolina with Joseph Albers, Ilya Bolotowsky and William deKooning from 1948 through 1950. Ary had worked and exhibited as a painter in France for many years. After the sudden death of Ary Marbain in 1963, the studio was closed for a year. Sheila then decided to modernize the workshop and introduce screen photography along with a new vacuume printing table. Our studio reopened on 23rd Street in Manhattan. With an assistant, Sheila plunged into printing three dimensional objects. A plexiglass airship for Lichtenstein, an Oldenburg soft drum set, a set of dominoes eames with fahlstrom, and a large fabric banner with marisol were some of the editions.

do not store or display works of eames art in areas of potentially high humidity or water leakage, e.g. basement, bathroom, outside walls, under pipes. avoid areas where temperature and humidity fluctuate, or where there is inadequate air circulation, e.g. eames attic and places listed above. do not hang artworks over or under radiators, heating and cooling vents, active fireplaces, humidifiers, and vaporizersa. the hygroscopic nature of wood means that it will take water from the atmosphere and expand, but it will contract as the humidity lessens. the direction of shrinkage is almost always around the circumference, which causes a solid piece of wood to crack vertically. keeping it in a steady relative humidity can stabilize the sculpture; if the wood does not absorb or release moisture, it will no longer expand or contract.
