In 1989, Sheesley participated in a group show at Bannister Gallery titled Six Printmakers, showing four lithographs and a monoprint. Although this print is not one of the ones shown, it was likely acquired by Bannister Gallery during the show. During this time, Sheesley was invited to do a workshop at the college by professor of printmaking Laurie Sloan, one of the six printmakers in the exhibit.
