Sherry is a professional artist, author, and illustrator. She has
released a children’s book titled, “Magical Hallows Eve,” written and
illustrated by her.
She was born in Cleveland, Ohio and has been a lifelong resident. She
spent a great deal of time, as a child, with her grandmother. She was
the first person to introduce her to paint; she made quilts and
encouraged artistic expression. Sherry has experimented with many
different mediums and also dabbled in many different areas of the visual
arts.
Today artwork is a way of life to her. The work is done in acrylic paint
because they achieve the vibrant color she is looking for. She likes to
paint an idealized sense of peace and simpler times. The artwork is not
intended to be photo-realistic, so much as a wishful utopia. The hope is
to give the viewer a feeling of happiness, a cherished memory, or some
form of intense emotion. She is most known for her landscapes and
streetscapes. She has also been spending some of her time pursuing
abstract art and illustration art. Some of her favorite subjects to
paint are older homes, as well as, little old towns. Much of her
inspiration came from a vacation to Maine where she feels she found her
artistic voice.
Sherry’s work has been collected in many places such as, Virginia,
Arizona, Texas, Idaho, Ohio and many others. She also has collectors
internationally as well. Her hope is to continue to reach people so that
they can enjoy her vision of the world. Her opinion on her style of
painting is this; “I do not label myself with any certain style of work,
as my only limitation is where my imagination ends”.
Her
hobbies are watching scary movies, reading a great thriller, spending
time with her family, and playing with her dog. Sherry is a huge animal
lover. She has donated her artwork to charity art auctions and hopes to
continue to support charitable causes. . Sherry recently said: “I will
never stop painting till I am no longer a part of this world. I will
accomplish much more on my artistic journey. An artist’s life is
sometimes very hard but I am what I am and this is what I must do”. Come
join Sherry in her alternate reality, a vision of her world”. Thank you
for supporting the arts.
