Artist's Statement

I enjoy illustrating images others have only imagined and engaging the viewer with an unexpected perspective. I want my art to produce a feeling or impression that might lead to an a-ha moment. My images are useful for anchoring memories and newly learned information. I also enjoy helping artists achieve their goals and "get unstuck",  through life coaching.

About the Artist

Sherry has been working actively as an artist since 2006 when her family moved to Oxford, England.  Sherry exhibited as part of Oxford Art Weeks in 2011 to reveal 6 paintings she created for the St. Nicholas Church of England in Old Marston, Oxford, England. While in England she also created artwork for use in research at Oxford University.  2011 brought Sherry's family back to the United States where she continued to produce art in her studio in Altadena, California, instruct water color painting on women's retreats, and lead a small weekly group for local artists. In 2018 Sherry's piece #MeToo-Hope in Release was exhibited as part of ArtPrize 10 in Grand Rapids, MI.  During the pandemic of 2020, Sherry and her husband relocated to Knoxville, Tennessee where she continues to produce art and provide life coaching to artists.  ​
