A Couple of Curious Humans…

Two smiling women, one in a blue tank top and beige shorts, the other in a multicolored long sleeve shirt and gray pants, posing outdoors near a large pink shrimp sculpture. One woman is standing, and the other is sitting on a rock, pointing at the sculpture in a sunny, tropical area with palm trees and colorful buildings in the background.

Darcy Ferrill and Shawn Trentlage have spent more than 25 years designing, building, painting, sculpting, and creating public art, architecture, and imaginative spaces that bring people together.

Now they're opening the Trellage-Ferrill Studiodoors to share what they've learned along the way with the communities they love.

Curious Art Creative isn't about making perfect art—it's about making time to be creative, trying something new, getting your hands messy, and discovering what happens when curiosity leads the way. Whether you've never picked up a paintbrush or you've been creating for years,

Darcy and Shawn believe creativity is for everyone.

Their classes and workshops are designed to inspire exploration, connection, and the joy of making, and will be offered at their studios in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and Key West, Florida. Come curious, experiment freely, laugh often, meet great people, and leave with something you made—and a story to tell.

Our journey has been anything but ordinary, but always, always Curious.

What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead.

Let’s Hangout. Make Some Art. Get Curious.
